Kim was feeling under the weather yesterday (poor thing) so I offered to go to the store to get some ginger ale for her. "And peppermints" she added. I few minutes later after I checked my chess games online and changed into walking clothes I asked, "Gingerale and...?"
She: "Peppermints!"
He: "Right, right. I'm off"
I go to the store and make my purchases for her and the short sub sandwich I'm going to make for supper when I get home. I take the stuff into the kitchen and bring out her gingerale and a glass.
"Did you get the peppermints?"
"Ah crap!"
Andrew at Bound By Gravity is shutting down due to time issues and I know my blog reading will suffer greatly for it. Kudos to a great job while it lasted Andrew, and hope you come back to it later.
Today is Rememberance day so be sure to take a minute or two at 11 am and think upon those who went to war for us, whether it was the fields of Europe, the hills of Korea, or today in Afghanistan. I know I will be thinking specifically on my Grandfather who came to Canada from the US when WWII started and volunteered for the Canadian army (lying about his age to get in). He was with the Canadian army at D-Day and during the march into Amsterdam where he nearly drowned crossing a river. He was a great man and a rock in our family and he is sorely missed.
