For 9/11.. What are you doing to celebrate life?

I am going to take my 92 year old grandfather to lunch with the kids.  He lives an hour away and we usually go to Red Lobster.  It is pretty funny to watch me try to get the kids and the walker for granddad into and out of the restaurant.  We can't do handicapped parking because we have to take my car for the kids and granddad is such a gentleman, he won't let me drop him at the door.

What are you doing?

  • Nothing special I guess.  Just our normal routine.  I'll call my brother and let him know I'm thinking about him.  He was in the south tower of the WTC on 9/11.  He escaped minutes before it collapsed.

    Congrats!  You get most exciting news... Though I am impressed with all the great things that happened on 9/11.   I wanted to get married on 9/11, but my family / friends freaked out.  I wanted to do it to "take back the day", I got married the weekend after instead and I kind of regret it.

  • How exciting firefightersgal!!

    I was actually relieved to have my water break on 9/9 thinking I'd avoid giving birth on 9/11 but as things went she was born 9/11 and now I would not have it any other way.

  • I'll be spending the day with my family & just appreciating my life. I've been pretty emotional lately (no clue why) & just tear up at random moments thinking how happy I am & how lucky I am. I feel really blessed.
