midnight chatter

so, it's after midnite, and i'm debating
on whether to watch one more show on
the dvr or go to bed. hmmmm....

spent the morning (friday) attending a
veteran's day assembly at lica's jr. high.
it was a very moving ceremony, with the
highlight being a plaque the students
presented to a local hero....a marine, who
was hit with an IED in iraq last october 23.
he is back home now, but still recovering
from burns on 56% of his body & all the surgeries
& intensive therapy to get him to where
he is today. the band of course provided my
fave music! ;) and i sat close to the back near
lica to see her play up close & personal. :)

then, i checked her out of school & ran some
errands with the two girls while little man was
still in school. it was a good day. (even though
daniela was a terror at a couple of places, i survived....
well, more importantly SHE survived)

so, hug a veteran today & remember all those
who are serving at home & abroad to keep us
safe!! for me, i'll be hugging both a veteran & a
cop tonite! ;)
