Puppy Bed

Apparently, Jazzy thinks her bed is the one that's set up off the ground, complete with pillow and blankets. Just so everyone knows, evidently my pillow is much more comfortable than CopperWolf's pillow.

Affirmation (or swearing in)

Affirmation then at ease,Officer that talked about what they could expect.Charlie was up at 4:30 had breakfast then went to MEPS for processing.

We arrived at 9:00.We waited for every one's paperwork to be complete and they did the Affirmation at 11:00.He was suppose to flu out at 13:00 so we left to come home.At 15:30

they were just leaving Charlotte.They were delayed due to the storms.At 20:30 He called and was again delayed due to weather.They had another delay 2 hours.He called 21:50 and was in San Antonio,Then the last call was before he got off the bus after 23:00 at the base.He was anxious to say the least.I told him he could do this,God was with him and we loved him. Also if Davy Could do certainly he could. HA HA

Keep him in your prayers.

Love to all

Your Refrigerator

So, had the craziest idea today. I really think that sometimes the stuff you stick to your refrigerator says a lot about what you're thinking of or what's important to you. So, I took a picture of the front of my fridge. Here it is. Who else is willing to post a picture of their fridge?

Calico free to good home

If she had broken any of my beautiful dishes up there, she wouldn't be available to a good home... or a bad one either.
Crazy cat...

No wonder liberals wish there was a delete key on Lexis Nexis and Youtube

In Obama's own words: what he really wants is a government take-over of health care.

Ten Facts about American Healthcare

This is hard to believe. Go to the link below to read all 10.

Fact No. 1: Americans have better survival rates than Europeans for common cancers.[1] Breast cancer mortality is 52 percent higher in Germany than in the United States, and 88 percent higher in the United Kingdom. Prostate cancer mortality is 604 percent higher in the U.K. and 457 percent higher in Norway. The mortality rate for colorectal cancer among British men and women is about 40 percent higher.

Fact No. 2: Americans have lower cancer mortality rates than Canadians.[2] Breast cancer mortality is 9 percent higher, prostate cancer is 184 percent higher and colon cancer mortality among men is about 10 percent higher than in the United States.

Fact No. 3: Americans have better access to treatment for chronic diseases than patients in other developed countries.[3] Some 56 percent of Americans who could benefit are taking statins, which reduce cholesterol and protect against heart disease. By comparison, of those patients who could benefit from these drugs, only 36 percent of the Dutch, 29 percent of the Swiss, 26 percent of Germans, 23 percent of Britons and 17 percent of Italians receive them.

Fact No. 4: Americans have better access to preventive cancer screening than Canadians.[4] Take the proportion of the appropriate-age population groups who have received recommended tests for breast, cervical, prostate and colon cancer:

• Nine of 10 middle-aged American women (89 percent) have had a mammogram, compared to less than three-fourths of Canadians (72 percent).
• Nearly all American women (96 percent) have had a pap smear, compared to less than 90 percent of Canadians.
• More than half of American men (54 percent) have had a PSA test, compared to less than 1 in 6 Canadians (16 percent).
• Nearly one-third of Americans (30 percent) have had a colonoscopy, compared with less than 1 in 20 Canadians (5 percent).

Fact No. 5: Lower income Americans are in better health than comparable Canadians. Twice as many American seniors with below-median incomes self-report "excellent" health compared to Canadian seniors (11.7 percent versus 5.8 percent). Conversely, white Canadian young adults with below-median incomes are 20 percent more likely than lower income Americans to describe their health as "fair or poor."[5]
