Taking rights away from our vets

We honor our vets with picnics and barbecues. Which is all well and good.

But the best way to honor our vets is to give them good medical and emotional care. They have lost so much. The government should not be taking away the simple pleasures in life. Limiting home passes is just the beginning. Imagine that you could no longer go to birthday parties, weddings, funerals of your loved ones. Or to have to choose which event you have to miss.

Veterans in homes have lost so much. Now they have little choice with daily life decisions. Many have lost the choice of what to eat, what to buy, and so many other freedoms that they fought for.

Currently working on this one. I have been really looking forward to working on this puzzle. It may take me a bit longer then some others I've done in the past. The blue and white colors are difficult to work with..

Relax and kiss the cat

Jesus, Take the Wheel(James/Lindsey/Sampson)She was drivin' last Friday on her way to Cincinnati On a snow white Christmas EveGoin' home to see her Mama and her DaddyWith the baby in the back seatFifty miles to go and she was runnin' lowOn faith and gasolineIt'd been a long hard yearShe had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attentionShe was goin' way too fastBefore she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glassShe saw both their lives flash before her eyesShe didn't even have time to cryShe was so scared, she threw her hands up in the air(Chorus)Jesus take the wheelTake it from my hands'Cause I can't do this on my ownI'm letting goSo give me one more chanceSave me from this road I'm onJesus take the wheelIt was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder and the car came to a stopShe cried when she saw that baby in the back seat sleepin' like a rockAnd for the first time in a long time she bowed her head to prayShe said I'm sorry for the wayI've been livin' my lifeI know I've got to changeSo from now on tonight(Repeat chorus)

Going through the motions

Dad, the Packers won again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I wish you had seen it.

In Loving Memory of my Dad
God saw the road was getting rough,
the hills were hard to climb,
He gently closed those loving eyes,
and whispered, "Peace be Thine!"
The weary hours and the days of pain,
the sleepless nights are passed;
The ever-patient, worn-out frame,
has found sweet rest at last.
God saw that you were getting weary,
so He did what He knew best,
He came and stood beside you,
and whispered, "Come my child and rest!"
You bid your family a last farewell,
yet some no chance to say good-bye,
You were gone before we knew it,
and only God knows why.

the shoot out

This guy, David Gilliland, may well be the one to watch this year. I still would like to see Dale Jarrett or Mark Martin win a few good ones. As usual Jarrett ran the back of the pack. Mark Martin stayed in his usual spot also, in/out of the top ten. That's ok, its just the beginning
