Good Morning Major! Good Morning Mrs. Major!
How are you both doing this fine morning? I trust on the mend and healing. I will have a three night work week, this week, followed by a week of vacation. I hope to spend Thanksgiving with my Mom. I wish I could have gotten off a bit later in the year but couldn't. She will celebrate her 95th birth day on November 29th. She has always been tenacious in her own unobtrusive way. Though never over confident, over bearing, or gloating she has endured a great deal and simply continues to endure. I thank God for my parents everyday.
Hang in there! Keep a stiff upper lip (even if it makes you smile funny

), and keep on keeping on. I hope that the upcoming Holiday season will be a very special one for you both spent with family and relaxing in the glow of the season and their care. Maybe my Holiday wishes are a little early

but....I believe there is no time like the present and Holiday well wishes can rarely be too early or overdone. I'll bet my own tenacity is in for a test or two this week; so what!

I'm not quitting.

P.S. Honorable Veteran's Day! It is unfathomable the sacrifce that has been made by so many fine Americans, over the course of our history, that allows us our current freedom.
