As I write this, my Flyboy is on his way back to base. He will not be back before he leaves for Calif. Me & Peanut (the dog) watched him drive away and we both cried. I'll have crying jags for about a week (usually). Well, God didn't give us our children to keep; I keep telling myself that...
Anyway!! Memorial Day adventures! Pete, my honey, has been feeling kind of bad the last few days. We had several people over to his house on the river (his house is much bigger, and he has a boat!) to BBQ and my son cooked (well, I did some!). We had all eaten, and was talking about dessert, when one of the girls yelled for me to come upstairs quick, but I had already heard him fall. He had passed out -WAY low blood pressure even after 3 readings. We spent 2 1/2 hours in the emergency room - NO boat ride, and no dessert. He is ok-just has to monitor his BP for the next few days, and check in with reg. doctor.
Up to that point, we were having a really good time. And of course, everyone left in a hurry, and we have all this FOOD left over!!! The YAPPERS are in-they came over this morning before my son left, and they'll be in and out this week-will take my mind off Clint going to the other side of the states...for now.

Hi,Cc353! I have 3 sons and I hear you none joined the service but all say if one does all do. God gave them to us because of the joy they bring us and because we are specially fit to do the job of raising them the way He wants us to. He gave them Angels also so "chin up" sweety all of our prayers are with the young men and women over there. Hey that is a powerful force! I like your photos on your profile..Sounds like the kind of holiday gathers we have and my Dad had always fainted and ending up in the ER :( I wish I knew how to can stuff, never paid attention..I am now learning. You have a wonderful day and keep the faith. |

Two of my sons retired from the Air Force. Its a great branch to be in. Does he fly or support other duties? My oldest was a pilot and the other worked in a hospital as a lab tech. I pray that your son will not be in harms way. Your good friend. Bill Mitchell PS. I have to monitor my blood pressure daily, it used to be high. Good luck to your hubby, Pete, I'll say a prayer for all of you. |

Ahh, I'm so sorry -- I know it must have been a hard day... I don't have brothers and so my parents never went through this... and I have no children yet myself. *sigh* Hang in there -- I'm so proud of your son :) |

Thank you all for your concern. He's not going away forever, and I'll probably see him again in a few months-but MOMS know how I feel-hate to see your kids leave! |
