Thanks, Galz, for another chapter in the big Berlin Adventure.

God rest the souls of the ones who sacrificed all for people
that they once considered their mortal enemy.

Only the American military is that compassionate!

Well, he should love it! I’m amazed at all the stuff I can get frorm Amazon. I’m a Prime member, so I have one-click checkout. Purchases go to a credit card that I pay off monthly.

I even managed to listen to carols from the weekend thread on it this weekend.

It has been a Godsend lately. I’ve been sick and down for the count; so I’ve been reading, playing games, and surfing the web for 4 days now!

(I’m on the ‘puter, now. Had to escape the LazyBoy.)

Good evening and Merry Christmas Eve, Luv.

The whole Berlin Airlift is a fantastic story of our military that needs
remembering by the American people.

Nana and Piper are taking good care of their men.

Around baking cookies and wrapping presents, that is!

I work tomorrow too....we’ve been warning everyone for a month to get their timesheets in by 10am (normal is end of business Monday) so we have at least a little time to work on them. Checks cut as usual on Wednesday, so it is going to be a rough day.

I don’t expect very many people will be in, and if they are, they will leave early. We are almost always unable to leave on any of those days. Maybe tomorrow if we get a jump on the process.

Help those guys get the right thing. LOL!
