I still am pondering the emotions I felt this past Memorial Day, to think of the battles one fights to gain independence, all wars whether they are in ones mind or on the battlefield of life...including the heartwarming effect of hearing from someone who has the MIA bracelet with my uncles name on it and is passing it on to me...
THE MIA BRACELET STORY
And then, to relive each year, the joys of Sparklers, hot dogs, potato salad and S'Mores...that is what I am looking forward to on this 4th, spending time with friends, kids around to spark the fun...
And I have plans to get to my basement, really! I started, and have the bathroom put back together...
lol....where did the computer go???
ReplyDeleteOh my. I would skip the basement and continue with the firecrackers.
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day ....Hugs

ReplyDeleteYour basement is a treat compared to our garage. Even our "path" has now closed.
ReplyDeleteOh my...you have your work cut out for you! What a project...good luck.
ReplyDeleteBeen cleaning up the house...seeing this picture reminds me that I'm not alone! From a fellow animal lover with 4 cats...yes, and my blog is called "Catnip."
ReplyDelete"'IT MAKES ITS OWN QUIET STATEMENT." YES! My other favorite line from the movie. You are truly a kindred spirit! And thanks for the vote of confidence...here's following you, kid.
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet Teri, and wow you're almost as messy as I am...Happy belated 4th ;)
