Tis my first ever guest post, about my 1st ever soulmate, by my 2nd one; thanx
Hunny!
We are blessed to have known her
She made our lives rich – vibrant – better
She was our mother – our grandmother – our friend
wife – sister – aunt
She’s gone on now, to be with those who wait for us
and look over us and pray for us
She knows and understands and loves all the more
and she shall be dearly missed

Beulah “Peg” Dorey
1923 – 2009
We love you
“Always too soon, even when right
time runs out despite our best denial
amidst feeling cheated, reason unable to reign
made incomplete by loss yet more complete
for knowing her”

Lookin’ for a little link love?! You may not have thought so but who can resist alliteration? Not I! Nor can I resist some well-placed love. The link lovin’ has been widespread lately, from Carolyn’s ingenious ‘Once Upon a Bloggy Night’ link meme through Harry’s excellent response to Bob’s thoughtful consideration of how best to do link posts. From the standpoint that there can never be enough love, I’m continuing the trend. This here first link post o’ mine will contain the blogs I read consistently via my personalized link aggregator; to wit, Twitter.
Failing to find the link from one “Found Fridays” post to the next? With a splash more alliteration & while speaking of linkage, I’m also taking this chance to reconsider my series of “Friday Finds.” The series/category was established to share each week’s found moments, either within or online. Although I am sharing my finds from week to week, there’s no consistency to the type of post it creates. I’d love feedback from those of you who’ve read more than one
as I will be changing things up & will also be making Drink Deeply more interactive over time.
Take a tour of bloggers I follow on Twitter via the text links & discover the Twitterers behind the blogs via the avatars..

great people sharing
I’m found in and by these sites
ideas opened

From Pooh Corner to poetry
With courage and coffee
Thru Art for art’s sake
She inspirited me
From Upstart Crow to unity
With trust and tea parties
Thru Truth for my sake
She inscribed her love
From Camp Nelson to crazy
With freedom and fantasy
Thru Faith for our sake
She inspires me still

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.”
~ Washington Irving ~
