Bad Moon Rising was the first song I ever played on a guitar.

I'm shaking the leaves on the trees, literally.

Actually, quite calm tonight. Hand feels great.

Trust you and yours are well!

Mine was Gimmee Three Steps -- and that remains pretty much the limit of my guitar skills.

Doing very good today...

Went out today to encourage my county's schools to participate in Operation Valentines Day!

Started with the Superintendent's office...got his blessing...and went to every school in town. I think I lost at least one class that did the Seasons greetings project...but I probably picked up 3 more schools!! LOL

Kids and I are rounding off the evening with some snow ice cream!! Kids chose mocha mudslide flavored...I chose chocolate. Yummy!!

I'm going to do a wee bit of bragging here. I can, I'm the mom and my kid is going to Iraq. :)

I've been on this base 3 times now. I've met lots of soldiers, many are going on their second tour. I've even met some of her bosses. She's an expert on her weapons. She was given an opportunity to shoot a 9mm pistol. She's never shot a pistol in her life. There are 15 bullets in the case that loads the gun. (Don't shoot me cuz I don't use the proper lingo, I'm still trying to get brigade, battalion and unit straight... LOL!) On her very first attempt, she missed the first two shots, that was just sighting in. she shot 3 more cases of bullets, or 45 additional bullets. Out of 60, she hit 54. she an expert on her M16 and all the other weapons she's qualified on. She has not qualified on this pistol. Two different sergeants told me at two different times, if she was a guy, she'd be in sniper school.

Just a story about my kid....
