Breathing easier


Phew! Thank you (all!) for the prayers: I can say with 100% certainty that they've helped! M.'s most recent move is complete, and as an added (an unexpected bonus) the intergrity of the cell connection at his new location appears to be markedly improved, which is a huge relief! We are basking in the luxury of our occasional phone calls once again and feeling a little more relaxed as a result. M. is getting settled into his new living quarters and with the recent move of their office space, M. will now have a bit of a commute between the two locations. Luckily, he had a bit of extra time to make a purchase today: he's the proud new owner of a Fischer mountain bike and matching helmet ("Black and red: it's UGA COLORS!") on which to make his commute. Apparently, he's not the only one who decided to buy some wheels, and that's a whole other story that I might need to save for a different day! From the sound of things, though, M., SGT H., SPC M. and SPC S. have laid the groundwork for chartering their own biker gang...Okay, so maybe this bike gang is gonna consist of Huffys instead of Harleys, but when it comes to entertainment downrange, you take what you can get, right? Anyway, the purchase was a highlight of the day, and I'm excited for M. to ship it home so I can ride with him, too! At any rate, we're both breathing a little easier today in the wake of the move. So, thank you again...from the bottom of my heart!

I've been out of touch with the world because I'm spending 13 hours a day in 100+degree heat in of all places Sturgis, for the 66th Sturgis Rally--working of course, selling raffle tickets on a Harley. Can't believe my biker is thinking of a biker gang. The paper this morning said 6 Outlaw gang members were shot by 1 or more Hell's Angels gang members--just a little vendetta to settle we surmise. Maybe we should send them over to Iraq to play for real--they obviously have too much time on their hands! All will be over on Saturday night (7 for me!) Hang in their you two--your time is coming soon!

Hi Molly's mom! Mike worked for Harley again this year, same hours, same heat! The kids and I headed for ND and left the rally behind. Sounds like we picked a good year to get out of here. I hope you are resting and recovering!

M & Molly--So glad you have your cell service back and that things have settled down a bit. Hang in there!!! Enjoy the new wheels, M!!
