Beautiful choice of music. I loved the comments and could not believe that some comments had to be removed! Get as preachy as you want on this subject, as far as I am concerned!!! And thank YOU for what you do!

Good day everyone! I can't believe it has been 10 years since 9/11 but it has. today brings back so many memories of that day,I can remember feeling so angry after I realized the attacks were intentional meant to kill as many innocent victims as possible. I remember begging to be deployed and soon enough I was. I am trying to not to preach a sermon! I will simply say God bless America,and the victims of not only 9/11 in America but also the victims of the England bombings in London,Also In Italy and Spain and Africa. and the USS COLE back in 2000.The soldiers,marines,Sailers and Airmen who have lost thier lives fighting for our freedom!!!

I couldn't help wondering ... after she's trapped and "fixed," will you change Mama's name??

She will still be mama because she has kids and grandkids still hanging around here who already got fixed. So I guess even with us human women, if we get "fixed" after having kids we are still mama. :mrgreen:

By the way, after an hour and a half, we got her trapped and she is on her way to get fixed!

Enya adds a lot to this. I have all her CDs. One of hers I want played at the beginning and ending of my funeral: Anywhere Is. You have to listen to the last note; there is pause just before the end. Totally love it.

Remembering 9-11
It has been 10 years and we can all remember the images of that day and where we were at the time.
My prayers are with those whose lives were so changed on that day.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:43-44).

Good Afternoon Everyone!!!!!!! It is hard to believe that it's been 10 years since that terrible day. My prayers go out to all of those who lost friends and family that day. My prayers also go out to all of those soldiers keeping us safe. Especially Gabulldawg. I've been watching coverage of the service at ground zero and it is nice to see the memorial finally open. The waterfalls are a pretty cool idea. Now on to happier things. Whose ready for some football??????? Go Colts!!!!!!!!! I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!

Good Afternoon MMC!

Back from church, wonderful service. It is our church's 95th anniversary today. Every year at this time we honour a couple of long serving members and thank them for all they do with a small gift.
This was followed with cake and coffee in the gym. Also our historian puts up all kinds of neat pictures taken over the years.
We also took a moment to remember 9/11 and to pray for all those whose lives where touched by those events.

Whoa Made, did the defense stay home with Manning, Ouch! That's what I was figuring the Bengals would be losing by. I hope it gets better.

I'm just glad that Peyton isn't in there. They need to get him back on the sideline though so he can be the head coach.

I think they forgot to eat their Wheaties this morning.

Good afternoon,

Lazy day here, I wish I could take nap, but the demons, err I mean children will not allow that. I am watching the free preview day of NFL Redzone, as a Bengals fan it is the only way I can watch some of their game in Patriotland. We did go to Walmart this morning, scouted the toy department for Christmas gifts for the boys, I think we have great ideas for LC now, just can't wait for the layaway to start now, just need to see if Kmart has the same toys to see if we could do layaway now.

Enjoy your games and day!

Go Bengals!

I had to laugh at that,I kind of worry about what I will do when my first kids becomes 2 or 3...In fact I am kind of worried in general!! Hope you can get some rest today!

xmas365 · Sep 11, 2011

Well, the Bengals have already exceeded my expectations for this season, a nice little comeback win. I am glad I don't get paid to prognosticate. cheesy

Well the cooler weather was nice while it lasted. The heat and humidty has returned though and my air conditioner just got turned on for the first time in a week.

Good afternoon, friends! Hope you all are having a fabulous Sunday!
It is a beautiful 93 degrees here with light rain, a hint of sun peeking through, and a beautiful rainbow in the sky. I'm loving this weather. I went to a harvest festival today w/ a girlfriend of mine, and saw many Fall, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas decorations

I bought a few cute things, and bought some snacks for game days. My husband is happy that I didn't break the bank, and that his Bears won today! Ha! Anyways, just wanted to check in & say hi since I haven't been around most of the weekend. Hope everyone has a great week!!
