Ouch

This is what my foot looks like right now, without all the wraps and the brace I have to wear, although the picture makes it look a lot better! The bruise has spread through my foot all the way to my toes! ew!

Crutches

are superbly annoying. Especially when you live in a basement room. So, I sprained my ankle and foot quite badly, I have to use crutches till Monday and wear a brace for 2 weeks, as well as go to physical therapy for 2 weeks. Great. Oh and I can't go back to work till Tuesday. I'm gonna miss the kids. :(

Freedom

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG,

OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT STANDS,

ONE NATION UNDER GOD,

INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY

AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!



For all of our other military personnel, where ever they may be,
Please support all of the troops defending our country.
And God
Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our Freedom.
Thanks To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July

We must never forget who Gets the credit for the freedoms we have, of which we should be eternally grateful.



I watched the flag
Pass by one day,
It fluttered in the breeze.

A young Marine
Saluted it,
And then he stood at ease.

I looked at
Him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut square
And eyes alert
He'd stand out in any crowd.

I thought how many men like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign soil
How many mothers' tears?

How many pilots' planes shot down?
How many died at sea?
How many foxholes were soldiers' graves?
No, freedom isn't free!

I heard the sound of Taps one night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler play,
And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many times
That Taps had meant 'Amen,'

When a flag had draped a coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.

I thought of all the children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and husbands
With interrupted lives.

I thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea

Of unmarked graves in Arlington.
No, freedom isn't free.



Enjoy Your Freedom
& God Bless Our Troops

When you receive this, please stop for a moment
And say a prayer for our servicemen.
Of all the gifts you could give
A US Soldier, Prayer is the very best one.
