ok i just looked at the calendar

and realized that i need to place a serious blog...cause tomorrow is 9/11 and in the USA that is a rather sad memorial day...for myself i recall that all those years ago on the 10th i was traveling back from Baja Calif or shall we say Tijuana Mexico to be exact...was at a health spa trying to get my asthma and allergies under control and had been there for almost 6 weeks...they wanted me to stay longer but i was determined to go home...so all those yrs ago flew into chicago and it was like thank God i am back home in my own country and the next day 9/11!!! all those fellow americans back there now stuck and couldn't cross the border and other people i knew too(this was a rather famous spa and there were people from all over the world, spain, australia, england, and so on...anyways supplies couldn't get over there either...and some of these folks were very seriously ill w cancer...and due to the medicines not being sent some of them passed away...sadly...there were more losses from 9/11 then people realize...i also remember a few yrs back when i was in college and we had a mass for 9/11 and i was quite upset thinking of my friends back then stranded for weeks, and was crying ...and geeezzz the next day there was my pic in the local paper bent over w pain at the loss of my friends...i luv photography, but i hated that photographer that day capitalizing on my grief!sigh

i had a girlfriend in boston in that time, we had been on the phone the day before and she was leaving for new york.. I know she always visits the WTT when she is in new york so when the news hit of what was happened i was so wurried about her. Took us 3 days to get in touch with eachother then. Can't think ever feeling more happy then when i heard her voice after that.
thanks be to God they she made it thru!! for you what a time that was!! can't imagine ur distress!!
yes it was. Its strange that someone i used to care for so much as i did for her then, and now i wouldn't even know what part of the world she lives in. been at least 10 years since i was in contact with her. Things change fast
yeah i know what u mean and on top of it all that photo was a close-up of my face and i was so distressed didn't even realize he took it...and yeah there were people in my life at that time that now we have lost contact w one another...sigh
It certainly didn't hurt my feelings that OBL got it! I am now waiting for all the information on this Navy Seal that wrote the expose on the tracking and killing of OBL.
what a day in history...and for those who still miss their loved ones
