The car . . .

*sigh*

Someday I hope to get it back! What happened is I blew the trannie big time. It needed a complete rebuild. I picked it up after a week in the shop and it was not right. Went back in for another week. Last Sat. I picked it up again and it still had problems shifting smoothly into overdrive. Sooooooooooooooo . . . back in again. At least I get to visit it once in a while! LOL!

As much as it bugs me wo be without my baby, that is minor when I think of what youz guys are doing every day. If my car is not fixed by the time you get back, I will sic you guys on 'em! LOL!

Take care out there.

I spent 8 years in maintenance, and I could never get the hang of the FSN system. How one of the ittie-bittie light bulbs that were inside a push button switch could be only 1 number different from a B-52 landing light . . . DON'T ASK how I found this out!!! LOL!

God Bless you for serving in such a vital role. It is people like you that straightened out all the misnakes I made ordering stuff.

A BIG MID MISSOURI WELCOME TO ALL OF OUR MILITARY PERSONNEL, PAST AND PRESENT, THEIR FAMILIES AND OUR CANADIAN ALLIES.
There are not enough words to express my thanks and admiration for what you are doing for our Country, families, Freedom to worship and upholding our values every day, 24/7.

A special Thank You to Keith US NAVY, Joe US ARMY, Alex US NAVY, Smitty USMC, Talkin Ted USMC, David USMC, Marty, Joe, Al and me Scully, AKA Scully and the Pirates US NAVY, Big Red USMC, Carol US ARMY, Leaatherneck Jody USMC, and Tim USAF.

Bunny and Blue, I cannot believe these wonderful people are thanking us. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT DESERVE THE SPECIAL THANKS. I cannot leave out you fantastic Hostesses and Hosts here on the Canteen thread. Thanks to all of you.
Alex, I really appreciated your comments and need to explain a little bit of the reasons we OPENLY SUPPORT OUR TROOPS. I was in the Amry San Franciso in the mid 60's and noone wanted to be seen supporting us. The abuse was intense and I swore that no military person would be treated that way again if I could do anything about it. So this my small contribution to honor you men and women that serve. My heartfelt THANK YOU.

To Talkin' Ted, USMC:

Thank you for your sweet words! I especially appreciate your message for my dad (he was a PhM2c with the Navy, serving with the Fourth Marine Division); he died in 1996, but I know he would want me to extend his heartfelt thanks for your service, so please consider that sentiment coming from both of us.

We all had a great time on our pajama party helicopter ride (I did get a little banged up when Snow Bunny was trying to set it down, but it was nothing, really - just a bruise - LOL); next time maybe we can get some of you guys to ride along. ; )

Stay safe and come home soon!

To Smitty USMC and David USMC:

So you guys liked that chopper ride, huh? ; ) Well, we had a great time, too. (Have you ever ridden in a chopper in pajamas? Nothing like it in the world. LOL)

Thanks so much for your great letters. We love each and every one of you guys, and hearing from you is quickly becoming the highlight of my week; I can see why Mail Call Monday is so popular with all the Canteeners!

You're in our thoughts and prayers. Let us know if you need anything!

To Carol USArmy:

Hahah Carol, now you've done it! You're going to have about thirty dolls by the time you go to bed tonight. : ) Now, I'm going to go make you one of my little modest creations, but I noticed Linda (The Master - she has made me INCREDIBLE things!) has promised to make you some, and there is little doubt they will walk, talk, cook gourmet meals and take target practice - LOL! The woman is GOOD.

Hey, next time we'd love to have you along on that chopper ride! Only one requirement: You MUST wear pajamas! That's the rule - LOL!

Thank you for your service, Carol - you rock!

I have read all the email from the troops. I have some things to do this afternoon then I will answer each and everyone.

Many of these letters today brought a tear to my eye.
Mostly tears of happiness I will add.

I really look forward to mail call Monday and hearing from the troops.
