When you are making out your Christmas card list this year,

please include the following:
A Recovering American soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue,NW

This may have been already suggested and I missed it.

I just got this in my emails and wanted to pass it along :)

Hiareth, I saw recently that many homeless Americans are vets. The official state was 25% of the homeless are vets and from the current war in Iraq.

Is there any way to widen the scope of the cards to includes those who paid twice in their service.

your welcome, and tell your all your boys thank you

I am a pacifist at heart, but I understand when a young man or woman feels they have a calling, it is so unselfish, "greater love hath no man...."

I went on to make see if this wa a hoax and it said it was not...You might look at it tool.. Hiareths ideas are great. Something cool that Xerox is doing.
If you go to this web site,
www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! This is a great site. Please send a card. It is FREE and it only takes a second.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
