Could You Do Something For Me?

Although I really want you to come back and read my post below this one, I would like you to click here and read a post I put up on July 24th, 2005. It was about a 'Mary'.
In that post I lied a little in the interest of protecting her identity. Her real name is Marla and she has just begun blogging. She is very good at it and she only has a few posts up right now so rather than me telling you about what has happened in her life as of late, why not read the the July of 2005 post above, it gives you a good insight into the kind of person she is and then go over to see Marla. Start at the bottom with her first post read your way up.

I went and visited Marla's blog. I read every post and cry with her over the death of her husband.....I hope she develops a greater friendship with the dog.

Some of us beat you to the introduction and have already met Marla. She is terrific!

Cliff ~ Hey bud... I'll write you more later. But as you can see (by the lack of postings) me and Mrs. LZ have still been busy. I'd like to say that the harvest has kept us busy... but it more like STILL the storm damage. They put on or new roof and now "when it rains it pours' (or more accurately LEAKS!) Ugly story that doesn't get better! But there have been a few good notes along the way. I'll send you an email. Later buddy. "Hi" to Marilyn too. ~ jb///

Thanks for sending me to see Marla. She'll be fine. She has a wonderful family supporting her, and she is a good person. So are you.

Marla just won a white cross necklace on my blog. I love the heart and soul she puts into her posts. She's an amazing woman.

Just catching up. We are the opposite, a frost is coming and we don't need it before all of the beans have turned.
Now I will go and read about Marla.

Just read that July 2005 post, or should I say reread it.
I checked to see if I left a comment back then, and yep I sure did.
Marla is a new blog buddy of mine, and I have enjoyed reading her posts and getting to know her a bit.
She is a quality person, and her home is and has been a place filled with love.
She has suffered tremendous loss and shares her pain while also celebrating life's joys. I admire her.
I'm also happy that she won one of my cross necklaces by winning a contest over at Scarlet's blog.
Hooray!!

Now on to your next post...

Thanks for the link to Marla... in this world of nastiness, it is so nice to find another shining light out there... I have so little time these days (now that I am up and walking again) to take the time to stay caught up with those of you who brighten up my days... but I keep promising to do better... maybe when it is colder?????
By the way - I loved your frogleg story!

Brooke said...

Marla is a great person! She is actually my cousin. What a small world that you wrote about her back in 2005! I am so excited that she has joined the blogging world.

Marla said...

Cliff your are way to nice! Thanks for sending all of these nice folks to visit my blog! I don't think that I ever told you that when I read the blog about Mary I was really touched that you had such nice things to say. By the way, the lady sharing the California pictures with you is now in the program where I will be going! I saw here this week!

Jim said...

Hi Cliff -- Thank you, you are nice. Marla deserves some of your readers, she has a nice blog.

I have met Marla via blogging a couple of months ago. But Marla, you had me figured out before I even knew who you were, there reading my blog fairly often. Thank you Marla, I now read yours fairly often.
