GM, have a safe and happy move .. and take it easy and slow. Prayers up.
Are you enjoying your quiet?
WTAM just mentioned the very strong winds...80 mph? something like that...the phrase they used was not one of the ones you mentioned but....hurricane! LOL!..This was at Burke Lakefront airport...
At one point I was in a construction area on I-71, and was passing a truck on the right in a heavy rain with concrete barriers immediately to my right. I was literally blinded by the rain and the spray of the truck, so I just gunned the engine so I could get past it and at least see a little bit.
I usually pretty fearless when it comes to driving, but this scared me quite a bit.
There was one extended downpour where mostly everyone else pulled off but I kept going (the fastest I could go was about 40 because of the rain and wind).
I'm liking the quiet, but I'm doing lots of socializing to make the time go faster (right now I'm headed to my other sister's house in Columbus). I can't wait until Sunday!
Hi Gretchen, I don't post much on the Dose but I read it every day ... just want you to know I'm praying for you. Blessings to you!
***.Have you ever seen a Humming Bird nest......Found one last summer!***
How big is it? About 1/4 of an inch wide? LOL! I don't often see humming birds here, but each time I do I'm shocked all over again at how small they are.
More prayers for you and the move.
You have them, Gretchen. Praying for healing for your back in Jesus' Name.
Just a suggestion: it may help to take a break and take a bath with 1 cup of apple cider vinegar in your bath water, allowing a bit of time to soak (doesn't have to be real long). The ACV helps to relax the muscles.
Just keep in mind "This too shall pass"......AND take a little time during the day to do something completely out of line and relaxing.
More the size of silver dollar....
Somewhat more regular tour groups have been getting to view the public portions of the White House.
I suggest you contact your Congress Critter or Senators, and see if you can request tickets. Same for visits to the Capitol, which might still be in session -but may have broken until September. Hard to know when they are going to stop harping for more documents from Judge Roberts' past, and go away for their "Summer recess".
Also, since 9/11, it is not easy to get tickets to many venues. Hop online and visit as many of the places you want to visit, to see what the new "rules" for obtainng tickets are.
An Air Force friend of mine visited back in June and he was angry that he hadn't taken more time to get tickets in advance, because it seemed like every day, he and his son were in a couple of lines to get tickets, and then they'd actually get IN to see whatever the venue was, the next day. He was disgusted that 9/11 had so "locked up" DC, and that the ticket process took so much of their sightseeing time. Until he got there, he had no idea it had changed that much.
Truthfully, he of all people should have known. He knows how close the Pentagon is to say, oh for example, the Memorial Bridge, or the Lincoln Monument. Like - seconds in a plane!
Just some advice.
She has no representatives here. (Unless I'm wrong about that).
Are there any other options for her?
What about contacting the Italian Embassy
the problem is i`m italian and i do not have a senator in the congress...
but i can assure you i`ll never bomb your WH... i adore so much the bush`s policy!
