That's what I'm figuring. Only one more day! Then, the Q-course, then whatever assignment. Which is not to even consider ... what if he isn't selected! Big sigh.

Mom's jobs are always worrying, always wondering. Never ending.

This kid will be the death of me yet! LOL! Thanks for the info. I know I have a support group here.

Good morning to everyone at the Canteen.
Most of the snow is already melted. No problems getting to work today.

WELCOME TO THE


(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities. That binoc graphic is perfect for this thread.

Now for our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today.... A mix of clouds and sun this morning followed by mostly cloudy skies and a few showers this afternoon. High 48F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

~ Tonight....Rain and snow showers this evening transitioning to snow showers overnight. Low 32F. Winds NW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precip 60%. A slushy accumulation of less than one inch.

Now we begin the roller coaster ride. At least we're starting off with sunshine.

Your Observation Skills Get A B+
Your senses are pretty sharp (okay, most of the time)
And it takes something big to distract you!
How Observant Are You?

Well, DUH! What a crazy question on #3. When in the heck has anyone seen a dial phone, lately? That question is totally obsolete!

Time for me to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Cause...............I'll be bock

Now remember, the Canteen is

So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.


(Another unique design)

Good morning beachy and (((HUGS))) to you.

Good morning, CMN ((HUGS))

(when I first saw this I thought you had said "white sh*t) LOL. Then I realized it was only my perception. hehe

No! Do not use that four-letter word in my presence. LOL

Are you?

Getting out early is usually a good thing when the roads are bad.

I’m thinking that since it’s been pretty warm, the snow if we get any won’t be around long.

Anyway, stay safe.

Yes, and it should hit the mid 50s here today. All the snow will be gone by this evening.

WOW!!!! Well, hopefully it won't be quite as bad as the snowstorms you guys went through.

It's sunny this morning but rather cool. Temps forecast to vbe in the 40's.

Here is a story from the Duncan Banner regarding our efforts to recover from the January ice storm. Even though power is on, there are some limbs and such in alley ways and places.

They're waiting for the ground to dry up and harden some so they can continue the work up picking up those limbs.

No, I’m not - I just hope I don’t lose any time at work from it.
