Did we forget?

So I was listening to the radio on the way home tonight, and they brought up todays memorials. Then they opened up the lines to callers to discuss are we mourning this too long? People were calling in saying "it is time for us as a nation" to move on.

I think they should ask those that lost family friends or loved ones in WWI, WWII, at the Pearl Harbor, in Viet-nam, the Korean War, or countless other "police actions" that we have been involved in when it is okay to quit remembering. I think this nation is too caught up in too many other things to remember.

They came.
They killed.
And they did it on our turf.
They took out innocent people.

And those people deserve to be remembered!

My heart, my prayers and my condolences go out to all of those families who lost, not only in 9/1/1 but to all those families of our military who have been lost fighting to get the man who did it. And fighting other atrocities.

Take me out to the ball game........

So J and I managed to snag 2 field side tickets to a Rays game. MAN. What a game. We always stay till the end, and BOY am I glad we did. Rays won in the bottom of the 9th, coming back from losing at 1 to 4. They won the game 5 to 4. It was amazing.

But we are now totally spoiled and will hate going back to the cheap seats. OH WELL.

Fun times......

Jman the weather man. :)

Catching up

My goodness we have a lot of news.

J is thriving in school. He had his first spelling test this past friday and ACED IT!!! Go J!!! He was very proud as well he should be.

I on the other hand won most Original in a Chili Cook off at work. My tummy didn't much care for all the spice, but dang did it taste good. So for the record, evidently I make some KICKING WHITE CHILI!!!! Surprised myself along with quite a few people I guess. It was fun.

This morning we discovered J has his first loose tooth and thanks to the wonders of television, he was already asking about the tooth fairy. They learn that all so fast.
