Catsmom....thanks for the compliments.  Like all of us, I;'m so proud of my Munchkin, the Sailor and what he is doing.  And, he is a handsome devil, for sure....and unaffected by it except for the ladies....who fall all over him....ha.....

Comment by GrandmaBarB on October 12, 2014 at 11:31am

Carrie.....thanks again for your kind words.  The Pennsylvania Dutch have an old saying, one that rings true.  It is:  "We get too soon old, and too late smart".  I've always tried to keep a step or two ahead of that....ha.

One of the best things about the aging process (and there are many), is the learning experience that comes to those who pay attention. 

I love the Marine Corps.  It is true, once a Marine, always a Marine and am so proud of serving with them and being a part of the best fighting force in the world.  It was one of the hardest things I ever did, becoming a Marine.  By the time Boot Camp was over, we knew EXACTLY who we were and what we were capable of accomplishing.  I'm not quite as active in the organizations of Marines as I used to be...but still hold my membership in the Women Marines Association proudly and support the Marine Corps Leager, Toys for Tots, etc.

Thanks for your devine thoughts.

I'm glad I'm one of the Bless one to received this in my spirit what you pass on and I promise you, I will pass it along that GrandmaBarB said:......., has I continue to walk on my Journey of Devine Destiny! (Greatness) You are a GEM that sparkler (light the pathway for ppl to see without fear)! I truly feel Honor to have met you! Thank you!!!! :-)

hi everyone, just wanted to pop in and say hello. GrandmaBarB, love the pictures of your handsome Sailor. Hope you all are doing well. been busy and going a little crazy at work. LOL amazing what can happen with a new boss who doesn't know how to do her job... Hope you all have a good weekend.

Comment by GrandmaBarB on October 10, 2014 at 12:44pm

Too Tall.  I get the Marine thing with shoes.  Having served in that outfit, a proud wearer of the EGA, shoes were almost an obsession.

Back in those days, your new shoes were brown leather...untreated.  You were expected to bring them up to mirrored black in just a short time;.

Sometimes, the DI's would hold "strip day" where we had to strip the shoes back down to "new" condition and start all over again....ha.  Nothing like Recruit Discipline to grow ya up in a hurry.

Comment by GrandmaBarB on October 10, 2014 at 12:39pm

Carrie..it's not so much "wisdom" here....it's LONGEVITY.   I'm so old, probably have seen it or done it...or watched it...or wanted to do it....ha.

I truly believe my service in the Marines did a lot for my knowledge base about all things Military...and just want to pass it along to sooth fears, or dispel myths, etc.

Thanks for the compliments on my darling Munchkin.
