Thank you. My favorite holiday will still be the 4th of July. Veterans Day and Memorial Day will really be felt stronger. I love "ordered more paper". Go "Oreos".

Made me think: I worked p/t at the State Forest Nursery in Boscawen for 14 years after working 30 for NHDOT. This was the first summer I haven't worked since I was 15. To feel productive is key...I felt less productive this summer. There was a lot of weeding at the nursery. Even if I only finished one 400ft. row a day...I felt productive. Silly maybe but that's how I felt.

Oreos are my favorite, too, and the hug sounds wonderful. I think I'll go hug my cat, whom I'm thankful for and would add to your wall.
