I think I'm gonna go to a corner and hide. LOL!!!

Haven't been to Dio's thread yet. So many good ones to see and not a lot of time at the moment. Gotta head out to deliver Christmas food baskets with the car club in a few minutes. That's why I got in a hurry and didn't pay enough attention. Dopey me!!

I can never get enough of these threads. I bookmark 'em like crazy. Our troops are doing a wonderful job and I'm darned proud of them!

[Darksheare]

Naaah, no need to head to a corner to hide.
*chuckle*
Head over to Dioge's thread when yo get the chance.

I've done the 'pay attention, who me?' stuff often enough myself.

It's still embarrassing as all get-out. I've never done it before. Oh well, there's a first time for everything. Right? LOL!!
Gotta head out or I'm gonna be late. See ya when I get back in a bit.

My children at age 2 and 4 months do not know what this means and what you have sacrificed, but they will. My husband and I will make sure of it. May God bless our troops, their families and America. Merry Christmas and I hope you get to be with your families soon.

[McLynnan]

Outstanding. Thanks to all who pinged me.

Last night Cheri Reso-Goebel was on the Gary McNamara show talking about sending care packages to our troops. The Military Mothers of Ft. Worth put together about 10,000 packages and were able to send 7,000 of those. They have now run out of postage to send the rest. If anyone can help it would mean the world to our troops to have a little something from home during the Christmas season. All contact information is listed [in post #93].

Thanks, Donaeus ...

Thanks for adding your FReeper USO Canteen link to this tribute thread. I like that we're all trying to work together to get the word out. Let's all do what we can for our service men and women this holiday season.

To the men and women of the Armed Forces,

We can't thank you enough for all you have done and are doing for us. We are humbled by your dedication and sacrifice. Everything we have we owe to you and the generations of servicemen before you.

Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you, and may God continue to bless America.
