priorities

One of the greatest things I've ever read was in an email from my friend:

I'm done making someone a priority in my life who makes me an option in theirs.

Words to live by.

Tell us about your oldest known relative?
Well, the current matriarch of the family is my grandmother, Meme. She's a beautiful 90-year old woman (may I age as well), and quite possibly the only person in the world that I love unconditionally.
Do you have any friends of the family that you called auntie, uncle, etc?
My Aunt Kay & Uncle Bill were friends of the family, but they passed away over 15 years ago. And there are several older distant cousins that I used to call aunt & uncle, but just call them by their first names now.
Are you related to anyone famous? If not, then tell us about a relative who is extra special.
I could claim DAR if I wanted to. My relatives came over on the ship with William Penn. Recently famous though? No one comes to mind.
Did you tell your loved ones you love them today?
Not yet. I just woke up. Though I did tell my dogs - do they count?
Show us a family member, or a childhood picture.

Take a photo of something in motion.
Inspired by Meg.

Matt and Mary Wedding

The photographer (the head in the front), and the dancers - my aunt Lynne and my cousin (her son) Matt - are all in motion. There are more and better photos on my flickr.

It was a good weekend and a good wedding as far as these things go.

Meme hat

I'm headed up to Phila for my grandmother's 90th birthday party. It'll be good to see my sister, who is in from Portland, and all the cousins and family that I see about once every 10 years. My aunt and uncle are coming up from Maryland so that should be a lot of fun too. I'll post pictures from the party when I get a chance.
