A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....05-31-03....Week in Review
Billie

Posted on 05/31/2003 7:14:13 AM PDT by Billie



A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

~ Billie, daisyscarlett, dansangel, dutchess, Mama_Bear







To Our FReeper FRiends:   We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. We thought we'd kick back on the weekends and simply review the features of the week. If you missed seeing them and want to say hello there now, feel free to click on the link to that particular thread. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today and tomorrow, please feel free to do that also. One of us will always be around to see the welcome mat is still out, and maybe even put fresh flowers on the table. ~ Billie

God Bless Our Military



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Daisyscarlett; Dansangel; Dutchess; Mama_Bear; and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation’s leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
~~~~~~~~~~   ~~~~~~~~~~


We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.
Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

And there's the big bad cowboy and his little 'meek' cowboy. I better get the breakfast out - know that Lori usually cooks up a big one for you all. Hang on - coming up next post. :)

I'm glad you do look back on the week's threads on the weekend, IG. Weekends for me are usually spent away from here - but also in getting ready for the next week's threads. Lori's in Australia this weekend, and Dansy has out of town company. (One of them usually posts the weekend thread) Dutchess and Daisy are both out of town right now, too, but we expect them to return home next week, thank goodness!

Have a wonderful weekend!

But of course you are all worthy of the Finest there is to offer. (Gosh, it looks delicious, doesn't it?) :)

Mornin' Billie!
Fly 'em high, Aeronaut, O Guardian of our Northern Border..:))

Another gorgeous day here in South Carolina, with low humidity and temperatures - cool nights.

Here's a tranquil picture - wish we all could picnic together here today:

Gee, Billie, what precious little ones! Don'tcha know God must see us that way, even when we're old, for his plans for each of us are just getting started.

How terrible of you to include me, especially after all the ridicule, insults and mocking of you the past year. All this work for nuthin'. A failure I am. 

Anyway, I don't care how good it looks, there's no way I'm eating your cooking! :)
