I called a friend of mine, an attorney, and she told me about it. Everyone was sent home, particularly in high rise buildings, because we didn't know what would happen next. Who did this? Why? We asked. After 4 days of watching TV nearly nonstop I turned it off. It was all over at that point, and I still had to find myself a job. About six weeks later, I did, and for a while I worked with a gentleman who lost a relative in the Twin Towers. Yes, it's a pain to take off my shoes in the airport, that's why I wear slip-ons. But no, we can't forget, not ever. We're all still Americans, and please remember that!

You moved from channel 5 in Boston to channel 25, of course you know that but I thought I'd give a heads up to those that don't :) All the best, Kathy :) I am very excited about tomorrow, I can't wait for the NEW shows to begin.

Special love to those who still suffer. Those with a sensitive, creative nature who still struggle give them support. You strong ones give to those who need it.

After awhile, I had to look away, after shuddering and eventually changing the channel to something "lighter". We as Americans, though, NEED to remember and be reminded now and then...I fear we've "forgotten" this event as time wears on. I flew my American flag yesterday with pride, being actually thankful for a non-rainy day, so I could display it without any bad-weather interferance on that special day of remembrance. I had no idea of your whereabouts, Martha, on that fateful day...how frightening for YOU and those with you, being so far away from YOUR loved ones, not being able to actually touch and be touched (by) the important people in your lives! I remember even embracing my own coworkers and telling them I loved them, being thankful each one was accounted for, and safe, and normalcy would continue... I will be at Bedford on Monday, in mind and spirit, at least... Blessings! =^..^= The History Channel last evening had a wealth of footage that I had never seen before about "9/11".

But we must NEVER forget what happened to our country on that day. To think that some people really believe that it was an inside job is mind boggling. God Bless America, Kathy :) Oh I so agree, the show must go on. But we must NEVER forget what happened to our country on that day.

We will go on but let us go on stronger and more fearless. Yes, Martha, we should never forget but we should also never stop being brave. We will go on but let us go on stronger and more fearless.
