A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!
~ Billie, Mama_Bear, dansangel, dutchess, Aquamarine ~

To Our FReeper FRiends: We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. We thought we'd kick back on the weekends and simply review the features of the week. If you missed seeing them and want to say hello there now, feel free to click on the link to that particular thread. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today and tomorrow, please feel free to do that also. One of us will always be around to see the welcome mat is still out, and maybe even put fresh flowers on the table. ~ Billie

add me to your ping list...

Hi cyborg. I sure will. We love adding people to our Finest ping list!

I'm trapped here. FReeping away with my high speed access while watching tv,drinking coffee and scratching my dog's belly with my foot

Sounds like a perfectly Fine way to spend a wintry Saturday.

Welcome to our corner of the internet.

[Mama_Bear]

No snow here....yipeeee!

I thought everyone looked forward to the first snow of the season. But I know this year will be a bit difficult for you to keep the snow cleared off of Mitsy's ramp. Maybe you can hire one of the neighborhood kids? :-)

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

Happy weekend to you too, dear wolfie. ((((((((louiewolf))))))))))

"The Many Names of Christ". Thank you for this, Dubya.

Morning Mama Bear - again, just a new day though! Spent the day with Sue and two of her granddaughters plus meeting one of her daughters and a third granddaughter for Christmas shopping at the Factory Outlet Malls in Hilton Head. Got home and then Angela's husband came to get me to babysit the two boys and a friend of theirs!!! I am sooooooo tired! I just want to sleep for hours! The only problem is that when I get home, I've got to clean house and get ready for company and also on Monday Taxman will be here and I have a doctors appointment!!!

I Want to SLEEEEEEEEPP!!!!!!!!! I want to stop hurting!!!!!

[Mama_Bear]

Wishin' all the Finest a very fine Saturday afternoon.

Wishin' you a good night and a wonderful Sunday. :-)

[Mama_Bear]

I am sure that one of our LOVELY hostesses can turn this patriotic snowman into a pledge graphic....

This will make a great pledge graphic! Thanks Gail. I will use it next time I post a thread.

[Mama_Bear]

Yippee.....that means my mugs should be arriving any day now! I have been looking forward to receiving them.

[Mama_Bear]

Are they green, or is that just the way they photographed? For some reason, I was picturing them as being white. But, green is okay too. :-)

Evenin' MB. Got the lights up outside, the tree partly decorated and the lawn mowed yesterday. Now it's rainin' to start the grass grownin' all over again. :0)
Think I'll fart a stire - oops - start a fire and cuddle up with Mrs. dd.

[Mama_Bear]

Such a sweet Pledge and Hostess graphic today Mama_Bear! I can tell you're feeling back to normal. :)

Yes, thank goodness! I have way too much to do to be sick.

Finally got the tree decorated, now I need to crack and shell some hickory nuts (big job) finish my shopping, decorate the foyer, wrap the presents, on and on and on......:)

Well, you've worn me out. LOL. We decorate our tree (rather I decorate our tree) tomorrow or Monday. Still have most of my shopping left to do. Then the gift wrapping and mailing and the baking. Seems like there just isn't enough time to get it all done before Christmas.

[Mama_Bear]

Hi Dave! Sounds like you've been a busy elf.

Think I'll fart a stire - oops - start a fire and cuddle up with Mrs. dd.

LOL! Warm hugs to you and Mrs. DD.

[Mama_Bear]

I Want to SLEEEEEEEEPP!!!!!!!!! I want to stop hurting!!!!!

Oh, you poor thing! You absolutely MUST get your rest. Otherwise you will be getting sick. This year the flu is hitting people really hard. Don't let your resistance get down.

Go to bed and sleep well. Everything will get done, it always does. :-)

[dixie sass]

Oh Mama Bear that would be wonderful if I could, but I am taking care of three wild boys and there spend the nights are worst than any sleep over we girls ever had! They can't seem to be quiet and giggling? You wouldn't believe...

[Mama_Bear]

They can't seem to be quiet and giggling? You wouldn't believe...

Are you on EST? That would make it after 2 AM! Good grief! They are still awake? Well, look at the bright side, maybe they will sleep late in the morning.....or, maybe not. :-(

[Mama_Bear]

That's an adorable good night graphic. Sweet dreams to you!

[Mama_Bear]

Love the thread, Lori. Good job!

Hi Victoria!

Let's see........by my calculations it is after midnight back east, and that means it is December 7th, and that means it is Victoria's birthday.

[dixie sass]

Let's see, the oldest is 10 the next one is 9 and the youngest is 7! Boys? Sleep late? Lololol. I know that it's Angela's 30th birthday and then intend to bring it in right, I do wish that they would come on home. I think I'm getting OLD!!!!! Lololololololol

[Mama_Bear]

Today is Pearl Harbor Day. Let us observe a moment of silence in remembrance of all who perished during the attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7th, 1941.

Mornin', everybody ! Happy Sunday !

Pearl Harbor Day was a Sunday also, I believe ?? ...

[MeekOneGOP]

Are they green, or is that just the way they photographed? For some reason, I was picturing them as being white. But, green is okay too. :-)

It is white. The photos that I took came out like that probably because of the background/environment and maybe not enough light ? I don't know.

The mug really does look nice too !! The manufacturer did a good job.
