It does bring a tear, teenie!

I collected some of these during the Iraqi war and I thought
I could post them on Military Monday. Some are very sweet.
I’m so glad I kept them and thank you!

I enjoyed your beautiful Eagle today also! I hadn’t had
time to go back and scan all the posts today. I got into
spaghetti making and it takes a while and my back was giving
me a fit and it wasn’t time for a pill yet and I had to just
wait.

The sketti was good, too! It was vegetarian by the way.
I didn’t have my ground meat thawed so I used a basket of
mushrooms, a large bell pepper, and a Vidalia onion and of course my sauce! I didn’t miss the meat at all. First
time I’ve done that.

I pray daily that he won’t get re-elected! I worry about it
so much. It truly upsets me listening to him boast about
killing Bin Laden. He didn’t do anything. He could give a
thumbs up or down and I’m sure all the others did all the work
but he wants to boast now trying to get re-elected! He thinks
he’s Superman and I think he’s a piss ant! They had to bring
him in from the golf course to make the decision. Grrrr~~~

Did you see the old timey pictures I posted for you?

[JustAmy]

I loved the old pictures, Jaycee. Thank you.

I helped my Mom do laundry on one of those wringer washing machines. I’ve used an old phone once or twice. Ironing ..... yuck. I still hate ironing.

We have more leisure time now and I would hate to go back to the “Good Ole Days”, but they were a lot less stressful. :~)

[JustAmy]

Happy Monday, everyone.

GOOD MILITARY MONDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!

The Soldier’s Code

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.

Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Thank you!

[jaycee]

AMEN...AMEN!!!!!

[Jane Austen]

Love it!

[jaycee]

Thank you!

It was a simple prayer that each of us could pray daily.
Just being grateful for the simple things pleases God,
I think!

Know all to well about the missing a vein, it is what KILLED my grandpa. I am taking my whistle in with me...along with my cell phone...I will never be left like I was at the Shea Ear Clinic to be tortured by some sadistic SOB doctor and his nursing staff,.

More than my share.This is what I battled from the 12th of April until just about a week ago..COCONUT OIL CURED IT NOT THEIR DRUGS.

This is not my photo, but looks almost the same only mine was on both sides. This is what I wanted the surgery for, the skin fold is very large for my small body, even though it is called a medical condition, caused by a very poor sew up job from a Hystrectomy, no general surgeon does AB Reconstruction..only Plastic's do..then it is a vanity called a 'tummy tuck'.

Hot weather is not my friend, and Memphis has 100+ degrees summers for 3 or more months.

If you need a breast reconstruction following a masectomy ins will cover that. Get your nose broke and sinus passages messed up and they cover that. But not this. I see no difference, they are all medical conditions in need of repair. And only one kind of surgeon can do it...Plastic Surgeon.

[Kitty Mittens]

Amen, and Amen.

Amen.
