Go HERE.

Minuteman 76 has a dream – an attainable dream – as he says:

Hence, the Freedom Project. I propose to travel the United States, living full-time in a 28’ RV trailer, meeting other Disabled Vets, getting their stories out, and showing the ones who feel hopeless that no matter what, you can turn your life around if you work hard enough and get support from those around you.

It may seem selfish to you now, but this project isn’t really about me, it’s about what I can do to help and inspire those that see no way out.

You ever have a moment when you say to yourself, “Why didn’t I think of that?”

It’s because you aren’t in the shoes of the one who DID think of it. Here’s your chance to help the Vets that no one seems to remember after the initial headline – the ones who sink into a morass of self-induced lethargy and hopelessness.

I know that I, for one, will not settle for being on the “Donors Blogroll” – I’m shooting for at least bronze, if not higher, depending on his criteria for each level. This is a cause I will be supporting – so don’t be surprised if I ask you, randomly, if you are on his blogroll yet.

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, support the Freedom Project and get in on the Baby Pool!

So far, it’s only my birthday – there is still time for a certain stubborn little girl to make an appearance, and then I will gladly share the day with her.

Thank you, to all of you who are sending your prayers and thoughts our way.

I just got back from a Patriot Guard Ride – Air Force Veteran (Ret) Ed Coleman was escorted to Sky Harbor Airport, where he will be flown to Utah for final services.

Well, that’s all the update I have for now. I’m off all this week, so I will keep everyone here posted.

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and get in on the Baby Pool!

Well, no baby.

Yet.

We traveled to the hospital this morning; we are at home this afternoon. The RN on duty told TMBWitW that the contractions, while painful and frequent, were not enough to admit her – she was not in full labor yet.

This is a very emotional and trying time for TMBWitW, as it is the culmination of her dreams and to be so close and yet so very far away, and to be told by a nurse who has no bedside manner that she isn’t really feeling labor yet – well, it was all I could do to not coldcock the RN myself.

Talk about a lack of empathy.

I am re-opening the pool, until that time that we are so sure of the impending birth that we see what color hair the little girl has.

OK, maybe not that late, but you know what I mean.

This has been the most tense and terrifying and thrilling and depressing Christmas I have ever experienced.

Thank you all for your prayers. Please keep praying, as we need all the help we can get.

We are leaving for the hospital as soon as she gets dressed.

Contractions are 1-3 minutes apart, long, and strong.

Baby pool is closed.

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

Just a little cat/sink humor to pass the time.

No, no baby yet.

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and get in on the Baby Pool!
