[Soaring Feather]

For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday
Thank the Veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces.

Veteran's Day

National Anthem

Grand Old Flag

On this day we Thank You Vets

for standing on the side of right.

For standing in the muddy trench

before the enemy of freedom.

For marching on the side of justice

to keep a nation free,

For standing in the line of fire,

to hold off oppression 

to hold a child not yours,

to build a school for those who have none

and to give a smile to anyone who needs one.

We Thank You Vets, for all you've done.

I salute all Veterans and Active Duty Military, all those who served honorably, those still living and those who have gone and especially those who paid the supreme sacrifice.

[trussell]

Thank you Ms. B

Crys is very upset...she says it's all her fault. I told her that accidents happen, and that we just have to be careful. I just pray that Trixie is ok overnight...and that she makes it through surgery ok.

She is like one of my kids! I am so worried for her!

[Soaring Feather]

Hi, Lauren, my pleasure indeed.

[NormsRevenge]

K rations (possibly named after their developer, Dr. Ancel Keys) were compact and easier to carry. They included a can of meat (e.g., ham, chicken, or turkey), a fruit bar, candy bar, or chocolate, a drink mix (coffee, bouillon, or an evil-tasting synthetic fruit drink powder), "defense biscuits", graham biscuits, cigarettes and matches, a wooden spoon, malt-dextrose tablets, a piece of chewing gum, and a packet of toilet paper.

[Soaring Feather]

Wonderful, thank you so much for helping our troops.

[NormsRevenge]

Don't FRet, I brung enough F'R everybody. ;-)

[MS.BEHAVIN]

I know you are....and I feel for you...Lady T...
I had to put my beloved Trisha down....
She was such a toughie...
She had been through alot though...
I am sure they will care for Trixie very well...
I suppose to some it may be silly...
But in my prayers tonight, I will ask St.Francis for blessings for your little dog, Trixie.
Ms.B

[NormsRevenge]

Thank you for the thread.

Thanks to the FR Canteen crew too.!


Thanks to all the veterans for the freedoms we enjoy today and may we never forget the sacrifices that many have made to secure and preserve those freedoms.

and

Thanks to a God who protects us all.

God bless America.

[trussell]

I am a believer that animals deserve our prayers. I thank you that you will be praying for her.

I am so wore out, but I don't think I can even manage to sleep. My mom has my kids for the night. My house is too quiet.
