Good morning Kathy.

[Allegra]

Good (wee hours of the morning there?), Kathy! What a cute little Astros bear.

We've been getting quiet days and turbulent days here. Unfortunately, today is one of those days where the bad guys are somewhat busy around Baghdad. We're hearing a lot of alerts for suspicious things around town, but I haven't gotten any data on actual incidents yet.

It's all going to work, though. ;-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Pusterfuss...((HUGS))......Another nice day, but tonight the temps dropped below freezing and the lake at the end of my street is now an ice skating rink. Some slip and slide on the way home, unexpected. Did your car enjoy its first outing of the year?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Yep, the wee hours....12 hours behind you...almsot 2am and I need to be finding my pillow and blankie.

We, of course, only get the bad news.....and believe not much of it. Glad to hear that it's going to work. R & R coming up for you....do you get to come back to the states this time?

[E.G.C.]

((HUGS))Good morning, Kathy. How's it going?

A very pleasant good morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your contuined service to our country.

[E.G.C.]

Good morning SandRat. How's it going?

[E.G.C.]

Good morning, Tonk. How's it going?

[E.G.C.]

BTTT

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning , E..((HUGS)) Did I hear that you were getting more much needed rain?

[E.G.C.]

((HUGS))Good morning Trussell. How's it going?

[E.G.C.]

Yep, we may have some weather here later this morning so I'll be on and off the computer.

There's also a Red Flag Alert out for fire danger for parts of Western Oklahoma.

[Allegra]

R & R coming up for you....do you get to come back to the states this time?

I'm just going to England this time. I have a sister there and we're going to hang around London for a few days and head over to Dublin for a few. I'm just not up to that exhausting halfway-around-the-globe slog this time.

I plan to go home in September when I can go to an Astros AND a Texans game. ;-)

Get some sleep, girl! Good night!
