Spent the day learning how to use the new scanner/printer/fax/copier purchased for ease of making copies of all adoption paperwork. I went through a few boxes of photos, looking for specific ones of my best friend who passed away in 1999. His sister has requested these and it's high time that I get them to her (she started asking last month). While I've really enjoyed looking back at all the memories that are coming up, I found myself laughing and crying at the same time. I'll never NOT miss him. NEVER. Anyway....that was half of my day, the other half was spent taking senior photos of my niece. She's drop dead gorgeous and I couldn't take a bad photo of her if I tried. When the photos were done, she wanted to come spend the afternoon and evening at our house. It was nice to have some one on one time with her...we talked for hours about everything under the sun. She helped cut beans and my husband made dinner (including apple pie) while we chatted away upstairs.
Funny how this day turned out...looking back at some wonderful memories and looking ahead to new ones as well. It's been a lovely day!!!
