mystery and ohio and everyone else who is in the military, or has a family memeber who is,

First of all, a heartfelt "THANK YOU" to every serviceman and woman reading this, and to their families who support them in their career. Words cannot describe my gratitude. We are so blessed to live in the USA, and also blessed to have a President who realizes the value of freedom and the importance of a strong military--AND . . . he appreciates the military people and their families!

snugs--THANKS for a great Dose!

Next, Gen. Franks looks good in jeans! Also saw him and his wife on a motorcycle on the way to speaking -- certainly a different side of him!

I love how Rummy recognized Laura in his speech. She looked honored. And he certainly loves the President--did you see how enthusiastically he was clapping after he introduced the Pres.?

Speaking of the Pres. he looked very emotional today. He sure meant every single word he said.

Lastly, good night all; my family will be home any second and I'm going to greet them at the door!

Sweet dreams! God bless the USA!

I have missed so much lately being able to regularly participate here and a few other special threads with the regularity that I wish.. Snugs .. an awesome thread & you knock yourself out with the wonderful visual feast you provide for us..and a toaster a night to boot? are we blessed or what?

Here in USA we have a restaurant chain names Chili's. Their signature drink is the Presidente Margarita.. tonight after family "whatevers" we assembled there & I ordered the Margarita & suggested the Vice=Margarita for my friend. He quickly scanned the menu looking for it.. I laughed & told him it was the regular presidente with Vice included free.. He laughed &ordered three.. But when I said it, I immediately thought of you & our beloved VP, DC, who you like "a little".

I wanted to post a lot here & at "my thread" the Finest today... but with major family problems (Mom's health) and commitments with family in town, my time, energy was very thin..and missing..

Luv W posted this at the FR thread today.. I thought it was awesome
