Good evening, Connie!

*HUGS*

How are you doing tonight? We were expecting the dreaded Winter Mix this evening, but apparently the storm has tracked to our South. We're in the 30's and cloudy, but no precip.

A most worthy member...twice he went into fire to make rescues. Going into fire is such a frightening thing, and to do it twice....yes, First Sgt Briles is most worthy!!

[AZamericonnie]

Oh! Sorry for the double post. Set if up & walked away & thought I had not already posted!:)

Did my bi monthly shopping trip today. Finishing coupons & list. Saved $136 today.

Shocked every week at the price increases!

So, do I dare tell you we are slated for the 80's late this week?

Tis ok...you can make fun of me mid summer when it's 115!!!

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...OFF today???

My goodness...did you figure out something to fill up your “free” time? Did you and Linda play?

"Going into fire is such a frightening thing"

A frightening thing indeed - but a thing our troops do without hesitation. God Bless our men and women of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard! They are exemplars of courage and gallantry to the Nation - even those who don't get any medals. Heroes all!

Good evening, Mayor, and thanks for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

Hope you had a relaxing weekend and are ready for Monday. ((HUGS))

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!

Tattoo

Must retire – an early call notwithstanding the Holiday - the bugler already mounts the parapet. Will chat with you all on the morrow.

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!

God Bless you good, Mac. Good night and rest well. Thanks for helping honor our troops, past and present. Thank you for your service to our country.
