Wow .... beautiful trees, KittyMittens.

Thank you for sharing.

[JustAmy]

Dolly .... thank you for bringing us TGIF at the Finest.
Great pledge and Ping graphics.

Glad to hear that you are getting around okay.

Will you and JK be coming to the rally tonight? It should be a good one.

I think we are going to have to pass on this one, Amy, as much as we would like to be there. Chachi is doing okay, but is still having a problem with his back legs, so the nerve must still be pinched some. I don't want to leave him with my mom and have him take a turn for the worse while we are gone. She has night blindness and wouldn't be able to drive him to the emergency vet.

[JustAmy]

Give Chachi a hug from Marissa and me.

The next rally will be on Marissa’s birthday. Don’t know who will want to join us but Friend Ann, Marissa and I will be eating at Red Robin after the rally. :^)

She has already asked if Syncro will be there. When I told her I didn’t know, she asked about you and JK.

[Mama_Bear]

Thanks for asking about my Chachi. He is improving day by day, but it is a very slow process. He still seems to be having problems feeling his back legs, so sometimes they skid out from under him. It's hard to keep him from jumping and running and possibly doing more damage to his back. He isn't in any pain though (and that's why it's hard fro us to keep him calmed down), thanks to the pain/anti-inflamatory meds he gets every day. We take him back in to see the vet on the 15th.

[Mama_Bear]

When I told her I didn’t know, she asked about you and JK.

Well, you tell her that we will do everything we can to be at her birthday rally. :-)

Did she choose Red Robin? We LOVE Red Robin.

[JustAmy]

Did she choose Red Robin? We LOVE Red Robin.

We are having a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese on Saturday but I told her that her birthday was on the first Friday and asked where she wanted to eat. She said Red Robin!!!

I'm glad she didn't say Elephant Bar. :)
I don't know whether they take reservations; I know they are really busy on Friday nights. (And Saturdays)

You know I understand, Jaycee. My heartfelt sympathy to your son; I know his baby is as precious as can be. God bless.

Is this Fall Back Friday?
I'm wearing red anyway.

Veterans Day, November 11, 2007



We Remember



In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Thank you, Dear Amy, and this Time of the Year is So Beautiful, with the Brilliantly-Colored Leaves Dotting the Landscape! For Some Reason, there has been a Butterfly Explosion Here, with Many Alighting Constantly on the Small White Daisies in the Yard for Several Weeks; just So Pretty. Thanks be to our Lord for All these Blessings from His Hand!

[Kitty Mittens]

I'm Sorry about your Son's Kitty, (((((jaycee))))), and Also am Praying for our Lord's Comfort to be with your Friend who Lost her Daughter.

[Kitty Mittens]

Your Post Brought Tears, Sweet 'Dita, and I'm So Thankful for the Military our Lord has Given us. God Bless them and Surround them with His Grace.

[Lady Jag]

Good Friday, DollyCali! Early snow, Br-r-r-r!!!

Hopefully your driving neighbors do better in snow than Massachusetts ones.

Your escort will be waiting.

Wow, albion Wilde, this is a shot I have never seen before.. thanks so much for posting it..

[DollyCali]

Back from the wild goose chase day to top all.. waited almost 2 hours to talk to my friend in hospital who was in therapy.. BUT NOT IN THERAPY.. was in surgery & when returned to room all drugged up & the nurse said it would be a couple hours til coversation would be possible.

Hospital two - 40 miles away. My friend released 2 hours earler & lives where I just came from, near the other hospital.

Hospital three - arrived to find her three sisters there & they were all agruing about my friends will.. can you believe that one. I gave her the gift a hug & wispered in the ear on way out good luck

Did get my dogs out for about an hour so the day was not a total loss.. sigh.

Dinner/movie date tonight but I am so wiped out & have such a big day tomorrow I might just cancel & replace with easy evening home, long/hot bath, & early to bed.

[DollyCali]

Happy Birthday
