Alphabe-Thursday Thankful D

This round of the alphabet I want to share what I'm thankful for.   

I am thankful that our Grand-daughters are only moving the Distance of 4,977 miles to Dublin, Ireland right after Christmas.

It could be farther.

It could be the ends of the earth.

Oh wait.

Yeah.

Ummm.

Maybe it just feels like that.

Sigh.

It'll be okay.

It'll be okay.

It'll be a good experience for them.

It'll be okay.

Holy moly.

It is quite a Distance to Dublin from Arizona.

But absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Right?

Arrrgh.

  4. Oh Jenny, I know how much those little red-headed darlings mean to you. I guess there is now a trip to Dublin in your future, right? Hugs of compassion,

  5. That's not the end of the world ! Australia would be farer ! Be happy for them that they don't move to France or Germany where English is not the official language. At least they can speak to everybody and even go shopping without any problem. You will get used to it and then they grow too and suddenly grandma becomes less interesting, lol !

  9. No doubt about it - Dublin is far away. Thank goodness for skyp and facetime and for blogging too. My heart goes out to you, nevertheless.

  10. That really IS a long, long way away, isn't it? Thank goodness for modern communications! And now you have a reason to travel to Dublin. ;)

  11. It will be a great experience for them and it will give you a wonderful place to visit. How long are they going to be gone? Is it a year or two or (gulp) forever? I know you're going to really miss them. I'm so sorry.

  12. Wow! That is a really long ways away. I'm sorry to hear that, but Ireland is an amazing place to visit (or so I've heard). A lot of my family is there. I don't know any of them, but say hello for me anyway!

    I got something nice in the mail today! Thank you so much.

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!
