Sunshine Honeybunch

For the last week we have had beautiful weather.  The sun has been out all day and the warmth of it against my skin is heavenly.  It's been in the mid to high 50's during the day and dropping to the low 40's at night.  I had to laugh when I rad someone's journal here while back, who mentioned that it was 57 degrees and "bitterly cold".  Heck, that's a heat wave in my neck of the woods.  Everybody around here wears shorts when it hits about 55!  She must live in southern California or some other warm climate.  I guess it's all relative.

I heard on the news yesterday and again this morning about that young military man who is believed to have tried to contact the al-qaida terrorist network with intentions of leaking military information. What in God's name is going on here?  Are any of you as concerned about this as I am?  It seems that more and more young people, especially those with military connections are getting involved in the Islam religion, and then turning into spies and snitches.  This has got to stop for our national security and the well being of the American society! 

On a lighter note, Valentine's Day is tomorrow.  It's my sister, Kim's birthday.  What do you have planned?

You are so lucky to get such nice warm weather. It will be another month Im afraid before we get 50. Yesterday it did go up to 32 and it felt like a heat wave to us. The dogs actually sat out on the patio and sunned themselves, lol

It's very sad that this young man has done what he's done. I don't believe there are too many boys like him though. I think the media plays up the bad ones and there are so many good kids fighting and dying for us. I wish the war in Iraq never began but what do I know.

Yeah I read that too, and saw his picture on the tele, all I could say was he was in TROUBLE!!! He didn't share info though, but it is assumed that was his intent, think he was trying to gain acceptance through a chat room. Either way, I can't understand how they can't see the seriousness of it. Such shame to his family members. Race
