Couple Who Wrote Letters During WWII Celebrate 60th Anniversary | The Frisky

Couple Who Wrote Letters During WWII Celebrate 60th Anniversary The Frisky

Ok, I go months without writing and then write two posts in one day. I had already written my post when I came across this article and couldn't resist sharing it. Besides, it kind of shares today's theme of separation.

Although long-distance relationships are admittedly tough, we are so blessed to live in the technological age of communication that we do. I came home the other night to find my daughter and one of her friends on a laptop using Skype to talk to their friend who is studying for a semester in Australia. The lag time was an annoyance (about 5 seconds) but they could see each other while they talked - and it's free!

How many of us could have survived the challenges faced by Pat and Geoff Bunyan in this article? My hat is off to them and I wish them many more happy years together.

Blackberry On The Beach

What an absolutely amazing, incredible world we live in. And what a wonderful, beautiful day it is today. I have lots to share!

On Friday I took a plunge and bought a Blackberry Curve. I'll save the gory details of the problems I encountered for another day but all those issues aside, I love it! Just read on.

Today is also Mike's and my third anniversary together. We are actually sitting on the gorgeous, sugar sand beach in Destin, Florida right this very minute. Yes, I'm writing this post from my Blackberry. I'm not even sure how it's going to work but I'm giving it a try.

I'm also going to try to attach the picture I took from our balcony - also using the Blackberry. Please bear with me as I learn this technology.
Tonight, Mike and I have plans to dine at a restaraunt right on the beach.

I'll write all about this romantic getaway in the days ahead. Life just doesn't get any better than this!
