memorial day...

hello everyone.
today is memorial day.
a day set aside to recognize and
remember those who have fought &
are fighting for our country's freedom.
strangely cool. on one hand i guess
i feel that everyday should be memorial
day and on the other, i'm afraid if
we didn't have this one day...
few would remember.
so while we're grilling, boating, planting
napping, golfing, camping, biking.....
take a moment and thank all the service
men and women for tirelessly making the
ultimate sacrifice.

today, on our calendar, it also says
"12th anniversary". gary and i got
together on this date 12 years ago.
he asked me to an REM concert on that day!
i had actually been cutting his hair for
nearly a year before we dated. who knew? :)

okay, so i didn't go to the golf course
yesterday so i'm heading down there today.
i did get all the rest of the flowers in!
nice to have that done. feels like summer!

enjoy your memorial day!
