If it is a ROLL big enough to hold a person, wouldn’t that be considered a LOAF OF BREAD?

Can you tell I’m a little giddy still?

Good morning everyone!

Just got back from PA and attending our Niece's wedding.

Had a wonderful time and everyone was happy to see us...especially since we brought the nice warm Mississippi weather with us! The day before we got there is was drizzly and in the low 40's. The day we arrived it was sunny and in the low 70's. Perfect weather for the wedding!

On a different note, got this article from Military.com this morning and am more than a little P.O.ed about it:

Due to a congressional delay in approving a wartime supplemental funding bill this year, the Pentagon pulled about $880 million from the Air Force’s personnel accounts.

The Air Force’s top officer said that if nearly $1 billion in personnel funds taken from the service to pay for combat in Iraq and Afghanistan isn’t restored by the end of the summer, Airmen and civilian employees might not get their pay. Due to a congressional delay in approving a wartime supplemental funding bill this year, the Pentagon pulled about $880 million from the Air Force’s personnel accounts to make up for a shortfall it warned lawmakers would come in mid-April.

“Somebody’s going to have to pay us back,” Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Michael “Buzz” Moseley said. “You have to pay people every day when they come to work.” “A: it’s the right thing to do, and B: it’s kind of the law,” he added. The shortfall could delay permanent change of station moves, temporary duty expenses and other pays that “take care of people,” he said.

Gotta love how these childish congress critters care for nothing but themselves and their own little power games.

Guess I should get back to work! (wouldn't want to lose any pay now would I!!!)
