They had stopped to refuel on the way to Iraq. They were so strong, hardworking, and self-sacricing. No matter what one thinks of the government, don't forget to respect and treasure those who put aside their own feelings to serve.<BR/><BR/>You are strong, MC.

It sounds sad that you were in such pain from the comments made by the priest. I think perhaps it's because those comments came from someone who you had expectations about--you were disappointed in his comments about the war.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-63817686190294459412007-07-05T11:42:00.000-06:002007-07-05T11:42:00.000-06:00Way to work the program MC.

It is letting me comment at the moment, grateful for that. I guess only you and I are having that problem.<BR/><BR/>This war is such a tricky thing in a way, because it involves so many innocent people. You are lucky that you have had sanity returned to you so you can deal with things like the priest and events that leave you upset. Then on the other hand there was the picnic to lift you to where you needed to be. It's a good bargain being sober. And it's cheap!Scott Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361224878660334532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-61242614094180918032007-07-05T06:26:00.000-06:002007-07-05T06:26:00.000-06:00Crying?

How divine (literally) that you had an AA event to attend. My daughters home group had an AA bar-b-q yesterday. She called me last night and said.."Mom, AA is a bar-b-q having organization!".
