TT #72
A short break this week from your regularly scheduled vacation pictures (hah! thought I was finished, didn't you? I've got at least 3 weeks' worth left.) to bring you the following announcement:
not this.
not this either.
it's not this, though it doesn't sound bad.
no, not this.
not this, either, but it sounds pretty good.
good heavens, not this.
certainly not this.
not here, either, but I'll bet it's warm.
this is just silly.
and sadly, for the males in my house, it's not this, either.
yes.
yes.
yes.
**explanation: Colonel's bicycles, The Little Colonel, a Kentucky colonel cocktail (click on the picture to read the recipe more clearly), Colonel Mustard from the board game Clue, Colonel Red, Colonel Tom Parker, Colonel Sanders, Colonel Hill, Colonel Joe, Colonel Wilma Deering, and rank insignias.

All good news fantastic!
Great to see you Darla, I really missed you and your blog. Funny, even though I was on an amazing trip and holiday...I really missed blogging. Now I know next time I need a laptop!
Cheers,
Candy

Whew. I thought we had a Colonel theme going here.
HUGE congratulations to Mr. Darla!!! And thank you for your service, too. It's appreciated by lots of us.
Happy TT, Darla! And no, sadly, Eric won't share his Smarties. I've been trying all day and now I've got a migraine. :(

Congratulations! Is that what you call a full bird colonel? And why do we pronounce colonel with an R sound, anyway?

Great TT -- congrats to the colonel, and you as well!
And in answer to Doug's question...it's the stupid English mangling yet another perfectly good French word. ;)

Congrats to Carl on his promotion and for doing it while still putting family first. I'm sure that is a very hard thing to accomplish while being in the military! I'm sure your love and support had alot to do with his success too! Congrats to both of you!
Happy TT! And thanks for visiting!

Congratulations to Carl! :) That is wonderful news!
My human dad figures he'll never be promoted, since he doesn't ask for postings that will help his career, but rather ones where my mom can do what she wants, and where he think he'll enjoy working.

Dragonheart--exactly what I meant by "the hard way." We've spent far too long in one place for family reasons--14 years total in Germany, 7 years straight in San Antonio, two years in Michigan in grad school, and it's a big surprise that he's on the list anyway. Hope things will work out that way for your human dad as well. :)
