Ellen- That's what we're aiming for! =)
Straight "A's" all around!!!
Gina-Good for you, darlin', and, yes, no excuses:)
Just finished mailing my last holiday package to my Mom-included pics of my SR the day he left for GL's (Oath, etc.). The holiday bustle does keep you busy. Making cookies for our annual neighborhood cookie swap...think I'll take some to the VA, as well:)
Thinking of all of you, wrapped in my N4M's sweatshirt:)
Hopefully, we hear a little something today!
35 days!!!!
Good Morning to all my Sistas! I have no new news or bad news to report. I just wanted to wish everybody a beautiful day. I'm still working on my Holiday To Do List...at least its keeping me busy. I did have a moment in Walmart yesterday, but bit my lip and stayed strong. I was picking out the Christmas card to send to my SR. Sheesh...I have never been this sappy in my entire life. Blah! Decided to add a 500 minute phone card to toss in with card. No excuses not to call your mama now, little SR Saliorman!
Proudmom - Tip of the Hat to you! Going to back to school is a very brave thing to do. You are setting a wonderful example for your kids, too! Just because our kids are grown does not mean life is over...it's a new beginning! Good luck on those Exams!
proudmom-good luck on those exams and bravo going back to school...
trying to do the same here...I hope you all have a wonderful holiday...on X-mas & New Years, let's toast our SR's.
Before we know it, we'll be heading to GL's for graduation:)
YAY 36 days............
