Happy Memorial Day!

Thank you to all the soldiers including my W. and my Dad. My brother wanted to join and did ROTC all through high school and into college. However, he hurt his back slipping on the snow and was not able to go into the Air Force. My sister in DC works for the military in a Human Resources capacity. My Sister in Dallas wanted to join as well, but was not able to meet the reqirements, her husband was in the Stateside Reserves for Desert Storm. My Sister's (who lives here in town) ex-husband was in the military and went overseas for awhile but did not see combat. My Grandfather was in the Merchant Marines during the second World War. My partner W. was in the Navy and his ship was in Vietnam, he saw no combat. My father went to Germany as part of his service, but he saw no combat, just learned some of the language.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all. Mom is gone but Nana is still around. We were there last evening to water her yard and help her move some things.
I don't know if I have a picture of my mother or if R. has them all. I will have to look. Although I look a lot like her.
