No sweat Mikel, most of my posts lately have been in the evening.

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. There are many reasons to be happy, but not being able to put pictures from my camera on here is not one of them. So very frustrating when this happens. However, I do have reasons to be happy today; God granted me another day to live. Another reason is that I will see Jesus sooner than when I was born, whether it is because Jesus comes back soon or that I am at that age that God will take me to Himself. Have a blessed day today and always.

It's true that everything happens for a reason, it's just that sometimes we have no idea what that reason was until long after the event.
