And wears 3 sheets to the wind when drinking. LOL

Good luck to you and Mrs. Cut, LC...the closer you get to month #9, the more often you believe "This is the Day", and then you wish "This is the Day", and finally, it's "What? Right now?".

Our prayers and best wishes are with you and your family...right now, you're the man and we all know it!

OBTW, I wasn't in Jax last week, but I would have sprung for a pitcher and wings in a heartbeat!

[Kathy in Alaska]

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I have IE at work and home and was going to say it was ok now, but the @#%*&%#%^ struck again! Finally rebooted, and it seems ok for now. Boy, am I behind.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Evenin', HJ. Thanks for the pictures of your corner of the world each day.

Good Night Blessing for the Troops

Blessings on you this evening 
May the stars in heaven
light your way into the
Milky Way of dreams 

May your day tomorrow 
be filled with love 
laughter and joy... 

Taking away all heart ache 
left stinging... 
and unclouding your vision 
for clear sailing...

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

Ladies, thank you for the wonderful welcome complete with the most excellent breakfast. I wish the people in my office were as intelligent as you two (and others here), taking the time you invest to keep the canteen running. Geez, that one Lefty-Liberal-Nurse I consult with on occasion. If I have to hear one more time..."I support the troops but I think Bush is a Liar"....Even my "Reeducation Camp For Liberals" has yet to crack that tough nut. She does not know it yet but I will eventually prevail because I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER QUIT!!!!!! Well, time to put the afternoon coffee down and get back to work.

As well, here is a heartfelt thank you to all our brave men and women in the armed services and of course to all the vets.
