On this Easter weekend on which so many of us celebrate the Return of the Son to His home, please accept this humble token of my appreciation to the sailors and their families - this link will take you to several dozen high resolution images I took of sailors departing and meeting up with loved ones while I waited for my nuke to disembark. Ironically, I missed him coming off, and he snuck up on me and surprised me.

Thank you all, Blessed be the forces of Nature; My sailor is home on leave in time to celebrate his Grammy's 101st birthday!!! We got back home at 1 a.m. this morning and I got 6 glorious hours of sleep. (I don't sleep well and anything over 4 hours at a time is glorious) My sailor is home and he's doing the cooking on Easter; he's cooking the Thanksgiving dinner he missed so we're having turkey with all the fixings and pie, (his own filling recipe including a secret ingredient). He is loving this, his friends met us at the grocery store and they're going to the Penguins' playoff game tonight. Oh, the cherry on my most awesome, wonderful, first time homecoming... I won the FRG raffle!!! Brightest Blessings to everybody, everywhere. All this has brought my life into a better balance and I am and always will be so very thankful to the Source of Life. Blessed Be.
