Icon14 So I wake up........

At 3:30 am to get ready for my workout at the "Y" and I see on the table a Hallmark Mickey Mouse waving the flag!!!and then there is a homemade card from the boys! There is my hero Homer Simpson saluting a rough picture of me saying "From one hero to another! Thank You for serving our country!! What a family huh? Not much goes on for me on any military holiday, I just kind of "bunker down" in my room.The family understands. But, I think I will go to the cemetary and listen to them blow "Taps"

Yes, Monday-Friday they open at 5:00am, I work out hard and I am out of there by 7:30-8:00 before the crowds come.
PS, got up to the "Y" at 4:45am and the lights were out, regular folks who
open up were off, someone else was suppose to open, must have overslept!!
I just came home, did not want to hang out to they got up!

Re: So I wake up........

Veterans' Day will come and go
Quicker than the blink of an eye
But memories of heroes present and past
Will never, ever die.
The youth of today, do you understand?
The price brave men did pay
To preserve the freedom we enjoy
Each and every day.

They were called to duty, and so they went
Not knowing what was to be
Many came home, some never did
They sacrificed so we could be free.

How lonely some must have felt
How scared some had to be
They paid the bill with their own blood
What a great cost to be free.

The heroes of our country
Are the ones who paved the way
For freedom and the many rights
That we enjoy today.

Next time, young folks, you pass someone
Who may be old and gray
Remember — thanks to him or her
You have your freedom today.

They may dress funny, not see as well
Walk a little slow
But they were young when duty called
And off to war did go

Brave men today are still at war
How scared some must be
How lonely some must feel inside
Paying the price to be free

You may dress funny, not hear as well
You drive your cars too fast
But remembers all those great brave men
Of present and of past.

So when you’re called to duty
Not knowing what is to come
Remember all those men before you
Who fought for our freedom.

Support our President, support our troops
Support our country, too
As they go fighting for what is right
For freedom the price is due.

Thank You

Thank you for you service, Franco!!

You sound like my DH, he gets up at 4:30 every week day to go work out/run before we go to work. Not me--I want every minute of sleep I can get.
