Falling into place

If you know somebody struggling with computers, I used a program yesterday for the 1st time that I wish I would have known earlier.

My parents are getting old and it's getting a bit difficult with the computer as either they don't remember how to use it or the simplest Windows message brings them into panic mode.

I installed TeamViewer on my computer (it's free ) and a cousin installed it on their computer for me.
Basically, I just could access their computer from mine. I knew it existed but I didn't know it was such a life saver. I could reinstall some programs, install their email account . . . Best thing is that you have control of their mouse so when you do something, they see it being done and you can show them again and again, they can take notes. A dream !!!

When my mother in law passed away in August 2005, we went to spread her ashes on one of the most beautiful cliffs in Wales. It was a fierce day with lots of wind and rain.

I believe in something, I am just not too sure if I call it God and I surely believe in reincarnation and in the fact that people who passed look upon us.  When we were walking down the cliff, it was obviously hard emotionally and I wished with all my heart that she would give me a sign of some sort if she could hear me . At that moment, the wind and rain stopped and one of the most beautiful rainbow appeared. It instantly brought tears in my eyes. I don't know if it was just fate but since then, each time I see a rainbow, I believe it's my mother in law saying hello.

Yesterday August 22nd marked the 7th year of her disappearance. Around 7 pm,  I quickly popped out and when I came back and walked towards my door, there was this beautiful rainbow (that I couldn't photograph properly) above our house.


Compared to the past days, I have calmed down and things are falling into place. For the 1st time last night Rhea was back on sucking her scoobi doo so the world is right now.


This morning I went to the park with Bubbles and it was a beautiful day again


The dew was playing in a spider web where a poor insect had been caught.



Talking about poor insect, there is at least one mosquito in this house and if I catch him ( well, her, actually), she is going to learn all about being flattened like a pancake . . .

I found this sky was funny. Normally you see some white on the blue when a plane passes by. Here it is blue on white. I wonder what caused that.


Back to Rhea, biscuit and big cuddle, now I will spend some time in the garden with her.



Project 365+1 - Day 236 : Irregular

I could have taken a photo of my mood if I could have. although it is pretty much stabilizing now.
Instead I chose the hedge at the back of the garden.
Shame on us, it surely needs a trim !


Take care everybody, xxx

I'm back! Love the spider web photo. My Mum is just the same with her computer, but fortunately has a computer literate friend to help.

I hadn't heard of that Anne, what a clever idea and such a help you can feel now!

That is a beautiful story about the rainbow, how comforting to have her say hello.

Great news about Rhea and yes Kathi is right you do sound brighter today.

Love the irregular xxx
