  • Hello USA – Yet another beautiful day in the sand – 7 days and a wake up – See there is the ant – It already has its butt in the air coming out of  hole – Click for full image – Yes all is crisp and quiet this morning and I am going to ditto yesterday – A big thanks to all – I have not been responding to yalls comments but I needed to let yal know I appreciate all – I try to stay focused and BAM its time to go home – Just seen a little field rat running outside under our door – He makes sure the birdseed spilt or blown out of the Birds cage isn’t wasted – Little joker got into my sunflower seeds and ate more than it weighs – My 2 little Indians cleaned it up without a sound – All is going ok on the job scene – I have been doing excell and its going my way – I hav often talked about controlled blasts – This is a controlled blast - They were getting rid of an IED – Improvised Explosion Device – They are getting bigger and doing lots more damage now – I pray for the service men and Truckers who are out on the roads dodging and blowing these up – Heck they will have them in all different kinda spots – They put them underground, in dead animals all kinds of places -They have some with timers,some they have to be ran over and some they explode with a battery – Kinda like the coal miners did— Sure hope everybody has a great Tuesday – I know I am – Gotta get to it for the day will pass – Thanks for the support and I will make a day to catch up with all – My mind isn’t occupied enough when I am on xanga or e-mailing – Boy it does when my brain is smoking on those spreadsheets though – So don’t forget to enjoy some of Gods nature flick for me and always HOLD THOSE HEADS HIGH AND GOD BLESS ALL!!

    Thank you so very much.

  • I’m sorry I didn’t thank you before, I thought I had. I really really really appreciate it sir, and if there’s anything I can or need to do, let me know. As to where I’ve been, I’ve been really busy with band and school, and so I haven’t had much free time lately, but I should now that the band season is about over.

    Your bro in Christ,

  • Hey John just stopping by to say hi! Hope you have a great and safe day!! Take care…Linda

  • One more week and you will be home with your girls–how exciting for you and for them!!! I enjoyed the ants–i used to have one of those ant farms–i could watch them for hours–we could learn a lot from ants. Stay safe and take care

  • Don’t know about the ants but I (my son) have two rats that live in deluxe accomodations on my fireplace mantle.  They are always under lockdown lol!  Stay safe, only one more week!

  • You must have some kinda camera to get such a close-up shot of that little bugger! IED…another reason to keep you and our guys lifted up to the Father for protection. God, guide every footstep… understand about not responding to all comments. it’s ok…jaywalsc

  • no favroites¿¿  hmmmmphhhh, see if i post any more feet pictures!!!!  lololol

    yup, those eeeeeeeee’s I posted you and the uuuuuu’s you posted me sure are annoying!!!  but they really take your mind off of anything significant  for a few minutes!!! our brains need that!

    I had not thought of purchasing a couple of adults to help out with my kids!  but if you get to purchase women, i get to purchase men.   AND, instead of helping with the kids, i want them to cook and clean and clean and cook!!!!

    i clicked on the ant.   It is kinda of cute!!   give it a name!

    Oh, if you are ever in  need of a job, maybe you can go to work with my sister in her new company…..rotfl

  • Hi honey.  I know you are just so busy, especially since you are leaving in ONE WEEK!  Woot!  I always get everything all spruced up and organized before I take any time off, too.

    How are the birds?  Haven’t seen them in awhile! 

  • PRIORITIES “A Hundred Years From Now It Will Not Matter What My Bank Account Was, The Sort Of HOuse I Lived In, Or The Kind Of Car I Drove…But The World May Be Different Because I Was Important In The Life Of A Child”

    That is what is written on a picture of the Three J’s I got 10 years ago that is sitting on my desk. I just thought it was appropriate since that is the way you live your life brother. And the tear in your eye comes from the compassion passed through your mother from her daddy Butch.

  • Het there…just don’ t let any of those little stinkers get in your luggage! yikes…and Exel- they can come inhandy…wow ’7′!! yes- keep on beeing busy…and take good care- those little dolll up there get to me..can just imagine what they dot o you…hugs..HHH! Lee

  • Just stopping to say Hi.  Hope you’re doing okay over there.

  • yep, I see that ant’s butt up in the air! lol.. you have all kinds of critters out there don’t you?  Take care.

    later gater.

  • why don’t you like boys? OR is that you just don’t like boys that like me? No worries about me overdoing my heart, I learned my lesson a long time ago… thanks for lookin after me though, You’re the best! Hey you’ll be in the states soon! Yay!

  • Hey. Hadnt heard from you in awhile, so I thought I would pop in and say hey!

  • Good news is we ALL know your thinking of us cause well we just know it. God bless you brother. I am so excited for you that soon you will be home with your babies. Love the ant. Your too funny in the way you describe how the rat or mouse or rodent whatever eats the seeds. They have to eat to ya know? GOD BLESS YOU…Stay safe and soon very soon you will feel the warmth of those precious baby girls  in your arms. Sis Pris

  • WOW!  I have missed a lot.  You had a birthday…. Happy Belated Birthday!  And you are coming home.  That is great.  I know you will enjoy every minute with your girls. 

  • Don’t have much to say, but wanted to pop in and say “hey” anyway!    Makes me ache for y’all over there–having to deal with the EID’s.  Be careful!!

  • RYC:  Thanks for the comment, John.  I would hope today’s girls start wearing something under their skirts as they do not seem to know what a  slip is.  It’s too distracting for boys, regardless of the length of skirt, to see the rears jiggling in their thongs through the skirt.  Taught my munchkin better.  Slips and real panties, tuck the skirt, squat down don’t bend.

    Be at peace..

  • Het there SOG- now it is wednesday- 6 days and a wake up! Hope all is well..and it is another beautiful day in the sand..by the way I like that ‘priorities quote up there….Lee

  • Just stopping by and letting you know that we are thinking of you and praying for your safe return back to your babies.  Love the pics.  Stay safe and talk to you soon!
