God Bless the USO
We had planned to go to the zoo today with a couple of friends and their families. Well, we were going alone and then they decided to come on Wed. too instead of Tuesday. Last night, after we realized we were all fighting flu symptoms we decided to stay home. It was a good call. Everyone is feeling much better tonight. Maybe our symptoms were anxiety related but it felt good to huddle close today and be “family”. We slept in a bit, we talked and did some chores, we went to the park this afternoon, I got to see Charly – a friend I don’t often get to see, we read and watched Jamin explore pizza making, and we even received a surprise call from Mike which we would have missed if we were gone.
God bless the USO. They have a wonderful room for the troops in Baltimore. Mike could leave his bags there while he spent the day at the airport. He was about to go meet the Chapel Assistant who is accompanying him overseas. They were then heading to their next connection. The USO folks even gave him 15 minutes to phone home for free. I can’t tell you how nice it is to hear his voice….
Choosing JOY!
