Seriously, Thanks for your support!

Billie: I had told .45MAN last night that I had to get up early to "make the doughnuts."

Awww, what a sweetie! Thanks for the donuts, .45Man!

(((((((((LadyX)))))))))

Thank you for the beautiful words. I'm so glad MedProf's idea is spreading, too. When I saw what you posted last week I immediately wrote to Billie to see what she thought about me doing this. She told me to go for it.

I'm so glad your daughter and granddaughter enjoyed it. Give them a (((hug))) from me.

Have a blessed humpday and together we all can spread God's love throughout the land!

I'm very sorry to see of your fate while decorating.

(hee hee)

[dansangel]

ROFL!!!!!

Thank you for re-posting that.

Your rendition of all the red tape you went through was, and still is, a HOOT!

:-)

[dansangel]

I think you're due to win one of my contests!

Oooh, oooh, I'm a *witness* to Freezie telling you that!

:-)

[Calpernia]

That was sweet! Losing patients with the elderly causes them to regress more. Giving her a party was something she 'felt'. Great story Weinie!

[dansangel]

((((((((Bee-lie)))))))

Thank you so much for the kind words and the card.

Christmas shopping? Eek, it makes me *gag* thinking about it.

I'd have to go straight to #8 on the list to get through it - LOL!

All better now !
Guess somebody didn't like that one. Removed by Moderator.
Oh, well.

Wish we could spread some of this among our guys and gals sweating in Iraq - give them a few hours respite from the daily grind that is theirs, helping the oppressed breathe freely.

More and more we receive mail from ones like the son of ladtx outlining the rapid progress they are making in bringing the country into this century with their infrastructure, and helping establish an atmosphere not driven by fear.

As the Letter to The Editor in our newspaper last week stated, it is very different from what the media is portraying. From an officer there, the son of a local woman, it described the one-on-one contacts with the civilians who are thrilled to have their help, and who share their homes and meager food supplies to make our men and women feel appreciated and welcome.

The American spirit is alive and well, and making a huge difference in their lives.
Too bad the slanted media deliberately paints a gloomy scenario.

Fortunately, we know the key is helping them rebuild and enable them to create a new and better life - not just toss dollars down a drain and *buy* hollow "gratitude."
