I finally finished scoring assessments yesterday. Woo-hoo! But I missed my blogging buddies.
I realized I have come to rely on your friendship and humor and wisdom and comments. I pray for you nightly and visit you daily. Thanks for being there and for making my life - as a person and as a writer - so much better.
I'll be catching up on all of your blogs, I promise.
God Bless My Computer
Every evening
As I'm laying here in bed
This tiny little prayer
Keeps running through my head
God bless my mom and dad
And bless my little pup
And look out for my brother
When things aren't looking up
And God, there's one more thing
I wish that you could do
Hope you don't mind me asking
But please bless my computer too?
Now I know that it's not normal
To bless a mother board
But just listen for a second
While I explain to you 'My Lord'
You see, that little metal box
Holds more to me than odds and ends
Inside those small compartments
Rest a hundred of my 'BEST FRIENDS'
Some it's true I've never seen
And most I've never met
We've never exchanged hugs
Or shared a meal as yet....
I know for sure they like me
By the kindness that they give
And this little scrap of metal
Is how I travel to where they live
By faith is how I know them
Much the same as I know you
I share in what life brings them
And from that our friendship grew
"PLEASE" Take an extra minute
From your duties up above
To bless this scrap of metal
That is filled with so much love!

Hi stranger!!! I too have been absent and missing you!
Glad to see you back, you always make me smile. Love the poem. :-)
Love the poem and it so fits me. lol. I had my coworker giving me weird looks the other day when I cursed at my work computer, and then patted my baby netbook sitting beside it and said, "Not you. You're a good little computer." ;-)
Shannon - oh how I have missed your sweet comments! I too am making the rounds again after so much travel! It is a pleasure to 'see' you on here. Great poem...
Oh & Mary - HILARIOUS! I know how you feel - my coworkers think I am nuts!

Missed having you come around and I totally relate, if something happened to my computer, I'd die (or at the least be very upset).

Welcome back, Shannon. But a teacher's gotta do what a teacher does during this crunch time. And your poem was sooo sweet, sooo nice. Prayers and hugs your way.

That was really cute. I think of my blog friends often. We need a blog buddy conference. Should we come to MT?
Let me join the long list of those who say "Welcome Back!" Scoring assessments? No wonder you missed up so much!
Shannon, oh, you have been dearly missed! You have no idea how much your presence meant to me today!
Welcome back!
Hi Shannon. I just followed you over here from DL's blog, so I thought I would become a new follower. Nice to meet ya!
Definitely jealous of your Montana locale, what a beautiful place.
Amen! I take my computer for granted all the time.
