Busy morning today!

Had a long afternoon yesterday with a doctor's appointment. Took care of dinner and stuff around the house and went to bed at my usual Nancy Grace viewing time.

Today has been a good day - Steady, busy work all day. That makes time fly by for me.

I have enjoyed catching up with old friends on Facebook. I work on my pageant stuff a little bit every day. I hope to be given the great opportunity to represent Fairfax county again for 2010.

We had a pot luck lunch at work today. Lots of good eats!

Well, I'm heading to the hacienda - blog with you tomorrow!

Remember to pray for our soldiers who protect our right to pray or not to pray!

Great start to a great day!

Today is my 12 year anniversary for working at Accenture. Accenture is a fantastic place to work. They have been very good to me over the years. We had doughnuts this morning to celebrate. I don't know where they were from however the doughnuts were as big as life preservers...it's taking a while to eat all of it.

Good morning Patriots!

I have a lot of fun things to look forward to this coming weekend. Saturday is going to Patriot Harley for the Rolling Thunder pre-party, Saturday night going to see "Praire Home Companion" at Wolf Trap Theater. Sunday is the actual Rolling Thunder tribute ride, Sunday evening I've been invited to attend a Mrs. PA pageant. Then Monday, hit the pool to relax and enjoy some sunshine!

I also have been invited to a festival in June for an official pageant appearance. Very exciting!!!

Working on laundry, finding old friends on Facebook

I am having a great day - laundry, facebook, watching Back to the Future, very big 80's.

My Sunday...

Got my husband out of the door for church. Looked at apartments for rent for his teenage son who is moving out in 75 days - YEAH!!! I'll be working on laundry and getting ready for the next work week.

I can't stop thinking about a soldier that I saw yesterday - his left leg had been amputated, his left arm was in a cast and his right arm was set in place with six long pins sticking out of it. Broke my heart. I am praying for this total stranger to me for quick healing and that he has the right attitude that he was protecting everyone he loves and knows and everyone he doesnt' even know - but love him and his fortitude for taking one for the team of America!

What a terrific experience!

Just got back from serving lunch and treats at Bethesda Naval Medical Center. What an honor! The Hyatt catered the lunch, my co-workers and I make the treat baskets and served the food. We met so many nice people. When you walk into the hospital, it feels like holy ground. I saw a lot of amputees. Our soldiers are a special breed of human beings.

I am going to take a nap now - I am tired. I am in awe of our military and the fortitude that they display everyday.
