Howdy, luvie.

2nd?? And I got here a little late.
Then disappeared again to slap some supper together. LOL

Did you get lucky and get a nap today or did you have class this evening?

[Kudsman]

What a wonderful opening. God bless and keep all our warriors and their families.

[luvie]

I’m just the poster. Kathy In Alaska did all the hard work on this wonderful tribute to our troops.

[luvie]

Hey there, radu!

Yeah, things are a bit slow tonight, I guess. Glad you made it in the top tier. LOL!

No nap today because of class, but I just woke up from sleeping for about an hour. I was just so tired. The kitties thought I had abandoned them. 😹

[Kudsman]

A huge bravo zulu to Kathy. I loved it.

[luvie]

Indeed. She’s the best!

A very pleasant good Thursday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks Luvie for filling in for Kathy this morning.

Yesterday at Wichita Ridge:

How's everyone doing this morning?

[radu]

I kinda figured you’d have class this evening. You don’t get let off the hook all that often. LOL
You got a little power nap tonight, at least.

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Looks like it was a little toasty there yesterday. Gizmo’s tongue was hanging almost to the ground. :-) Didn’t keep him from hauling you all around the place though.
