I disappeared after everyone else did to do some cleaning. Then everyone showed back up. LOL!

Yep, one day at a time is really the only way to deal with these things because you never know what each day will bring. We’ve been living it for 5 years with Hubby’s aunt.

I didn’t realize Kyra had a new show. Haven’t heard of that one.

LOL! I kinda figured you’d nodded off. You still have a lot of catching up on sleep to do. Hope you get a nice uninterrupted night’s sleep.

WELCOME TO THE

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

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities

Just passing through to say hello
and check on what our heroes have been up to.
I'm trying to catch up on the national news, especially the wildfires.
America sure has been hit hard this year.
We need a prayer boost!
Off to read some posts.

Come in, sit down.
Grab a cup of joe or tasty tea.
Mingle a bit, chat with the troops
or family member.
There's always plenty of conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS in the FR Canteen.

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.

We are relieved, too. She’s not her usual upbeat self, but who would be in the hospital! Hopefully she’ll get out soon.

Glad you got some sleep...before you got some sleep. LOL! (((hugs)))
