7.3.12 Evening

I am so grateful that I was strong enough to complete today in a way that allowed me to be who I was and stand up for what I wanted.  Thank you all for providing me with strength and prayers.  Today I was triumphant! 

It saddened me to hear a legend passed away today... I played a clip of Andy singing the theme song and my children started to dance around the room... That was how I reacted as a child to the show coming on.. RIP Andy Griffin... you will be missed. I am grateful we were able to watch you for so many years ... Thank you!

Tomorrow is the 4th and though we think of BBQs  I think of those who will not be celebrating over a grill but laying with a gun to protect us.  Thank you to all the men, women, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, and fathers who STAND up everyday to provide America the Freedom to be free.  Thank you.
