Oldie But Goodie - in More ways than 1

First of all - Happy Veterans Day to all our Vetrans.  How blessed we are to have the best veterans in the world.  The sacrifices they've made to keep our rights and freedoms intact.

I am reminded of these Veterans every time I see of talk to my dad or father in law.  Every time I sit with my dad at the Vetrans hospital for his appointments. 

These men and women (Veterans and active duty soldiers) belong to a VERY SPECIAL group -

How willing would you be to give up all the comforts we're so used to and go to the middle east to stand up for what you believe in?

So, today espeically - say thank you to a veteran - or give one a hug if you're so inclined. : )

Okay, climbing down from my soap box now because I don't discuss politics (that just gets everyone disagreein' and we don't need none of that round here!).  ; )

So today's Thursday - Oldie but Goodie Day at Catch The Bug.

The Invites are in the mail and WATCH OUT those who may be receiving one -

Our FAVORITE Bugaboo Broad is talkin' Turkey!

Because we have family that comes in from out of town, we always celebrate our big family 'After Turkey Day Dinner' the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  It's the best - my hubby and his bro deep fry the turkey and anything else they can get their hands on.  Because we're Polish there is always 'basa and kraut & pierogi.  And of course, the standard Turkey Day Fare.
