9/11 Memories Still Ring the Same

Written on 9/11/2006 Nothing has changed the history of this day. Thankful my son made it safely through his 6+ years as a Navy Corpsman, including 5 years greenside with the Marines. Thankful we have a thoughtful President who does not rush to war but believes in putting force to back up diplomacy. 9/11 Worked all day the anniversary of 9/11....I guess that was better than watching it all unfold one more time on the tube. All those memories, the things I learned...Matt, Buster, the grandkids here, their mom far away...it was just mind numbing circumstances....and yes, Buster...the dog. At the beginning of that day, the last thing I thought as I walked out the door was about going by Tomlinson's for dog food. Now Buster was a rescue, he'd had his share of hungry days....and I know in his heart that even after 10 years of living with us, he did not trust us to always give him food. I'm telling you, the animal never missed a meal with us after Matt got him for his 6th birt
