Hey, guys!
Hope all are well on this fine Thursday morning, Tuesday in pkondz's world. Did I get that right? Not much going on here. Went to the Mrs.' school last night, also where the DD goes to school, to take pictures of their spring musical Once Upon a Mattress Jr., based on Princess and the Pea. Carol Burnett was in the original cast on Broadway. Everyone did a great job and I so proud of all the kids, my DD especially. I'll be back there tonight after work taking more pictures.
After my DFiL passed, my DMiL got to talking to my DW about taking a trip to Ireland next year, a trip I fully support. My DMiL has been wanting to go to Ireland and trace her family roots for years. This, of course, got me thinking about another trip to Disney World for the DDCC. I'm not going to bring it up to the DW
just yet, but I'll figure out a way to do it. We'll see.
Well, gotta run and get ready for work. Have a good day, guys.
TTFN
Hey guys, asking for a quick prayer. DW was just admitted to the hospital with chest pains and shortness of breath. Her normal cardio had scheduled her for tests but they were still a month out, but ER doc said she can't wait for that. So we have a full day of tests tomorrow. Echo, stress test, CT, LMNOP, etc.
Consider it done, my friend.
We have the same things going on up here. Our Legion halls are all slowly shutting down. I think it’s sad. But I guess time marches on and people do too.
It is sad but as you said, time marches on. We technically should have shut down years ago but didn't. I feel like a failed post commander, but I've been told by many people that I kept a post going when it should have been shut down. Soo.....I guess there's something to that. The problem with the VFW, and I assume the Legion, is that the young veterans don't want to join. In my opinion the VFW is fighting the image of our grandfather's VFW. A place where people went to drink and socialize. And while some posts still do that, many posts are what we call Paper Posts. A posts that doesn't have building. I don't know al the answers, but it is difficult trying to grow a post.
