Another Saturday nite - actually Sunday 1;49 A.M. still online!

I am such a hack as far blogging goes! LOL I don't even text yet and that texting language is foreign to me. Why people want to text instead of just calling via the phone and having a chat? I think that no one has the time anymore? Where did all the time go? I remember people fighting the computer and fearing that no one would leave their homes because they could just live a virtual life on the computer. I used to laugh and think that this would never happen but now I see that more and more people are sharing their thoughts through their blogs and more and more teens socialize thru chat rooms. It is kind of sad but then again I enjoy the fact that the world is so much smaller via the computer. I have been able to find my cousins that I had lost touch with and also my nieces and nephews. My sister passed away of lung cancer and left behind 3 wonderful children that I adore. Unfortunately my sister was an alcoholic and addict and was terribly abused by both of the husbands that she had married. I couldn't do anything about it because I lived so far away in Chicago and my darling sister lived in St Catherines, Ontario Canada. I couldn't help my sister, Cathy, even when I called her daily and talked to her for hours. Cathy had just finally after terrible physical and verbal, emotional abuse, gathered the courage and the faith to leave her husband and start a new wonderful life. Cathy had a nice little apartment and was a recovering addict. The ironic thing in life is that you better be careful what you wish for because it just might happen. My sister wished she was dead and no sooner had she just started to love life again when she discovered she had terminal lung cancer with less than a year to live. The last year of my sister's life was amazing. We became as close as we were when we shared a bedroom as little girls. Cathy had a great sense of humor and we laughed and laughed all the time on the phone. I miss my sister very much but my faith in God keeps me having peace in the knowing that my sister is in heaven, a better place and I will see her again. I will talk some more about this tomorrow. Hopefully not at the same time of the day. I need to be sleeping by this time and getting up rested. More later.Back to crocheting and watching TV on Monday. Tomorrow is my grandson's 5th birthday party and I have much to do! Happy week end to all!
