Hey everyone!!

Tough week is over... I have to work Monday but it's going to be sooo slow (I hope) that I'll get a lot of work done and spend time on here!

I have to update the list soon, we are bringing our sitter with us! She's in college and does so much for us and I can't wait to see how much she loves it! I told her it's a "treat"... no sitting... just relaxing! She's very excited and my son is thrilled!

I hope everyone has a Happy 4th! Fireworks on Sunday for us. Big BBQ at my Brothers and then we all walk into town. The fireworks are shot from barges in the lake (Lake Orion of course). I anticipate it will be a bit sad with lots of talk about our fallen hero - but celebrating the fact that without Men of his character the United States wouldn't be what it is today.

Enjoy the long weekend for those lucky souls that get all 4 days off!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

I finally got my mother's wireless internet set up for the computer that I gave her, when I got my powerbook. So she is signed up on the DIS and is subscribed to this thread along with several of the pic of the day threads. So, maybe she will come on and say hi sometime. I named her something easier for her to remember, "pjpoohbearsmom" lol. She has an avatar and a signature countdown and picture already, lol. Took me months to get those things.

Happy Canada Day to our neighbors! I spent a 4th of July weekend in Toronto once. It was a blast!

Toronto and Chicago are my two favorite cities to visit. I love how clean and diversified Toronto is. I'm going to Chicago in about a month to meet a male friend. The museums, Shedd aquarium, Navy Pier.... I can't wait!

I'm at work today... uuugggghhhh... but as you can tell, it's slow and I'm here!

Fireworks last night in our town, they were awesome!

On a sad note, I've heard there is some church in Kansas that disagrees with the war and is coming to the funeral for our fallen soldier to protest! This poor family has lost enough, why do they have to add to their grief?

 

[pjpoohbear]

Why do people do stuff like that, a funeral is for the family and friends of the departed, not an event to make a political point. That is just classless. I really don't see them as following the word of God/Christ by doing this, they should feel shame for their actions. A thought a governing principle of christen religion was forgiveness.


If they have a problem with the war, they should head to Pennsylvania Ave and shout their message there, that is where the decision was made.

Hi Penny and Kim1

I agree, isn't the family dealing with enough Leave them be and if you have a political point to make speak to your local political party don't harrass a family that has just lost a member of its family.

[Kimmielee]

Well, more on the fallen soldier.... a Veteran Motorcycle group is coming too. They will line up in front of the protestors with their bikes and make enough noise that the protestors can't be heard.... and hold up a long, large banner in honor of the soldier so the family can't see the protestors signs.... How sad that it has to come to this. Let him be buried in peace.

 

[Hockeychic]

I have heard of that happening at other funerals for solders. We get alot of US news on CNN and have seen a few programs on this.

Hope all goes well for the family.

A early happy Independence Day to my American friends. My DS's 17 birthday is tomorrow and we always joke that millions of Americans celebrate his birthday with us.

[Kimmielee]

I hope he has an awesome birthday!!! Wow - 17... my little guy will be 7 in October and I can't imagine 17!

Tell me.... does it seem like yesterday?

 

[Hockeychic]

Yup it certainly does. I can't believe how fast it went.
