September 11th
I know that all of us remember where we were and what we were doing on this day 7 years ago. Just like we remember when the Challenger blew up and John F Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Martin Luther King was killed. Everyone reacted differently that day. Dave became very depressed. I was "Annie Get Your Gun"... angry.
In fact, he became so depressed he broke up with me for a week on September 15th. However, September 15 ironically was the day we got our marriage license in 2005. For some reason I notice things like that... even though I have a hard time finding my keys, glasses, and cellphone.
Anyway, September 11 we will never forget. I hope to hear how those that survived are doing years later.

Good Morning, I will never forget. David called us to turn on the television, It was unbelievable! Bless all the families. Last night we went to Los Angeles for a hot dip sandwich at Phillipes. While we were in line someone tapped me on the shoulder, I looked around and there was Uncle Guy. It was just amazing. To drive all that way to Los Angeles, and there he was.Both from Downey.LOL Love MOM
Hi Danna! Well, a lot of our blog friends will not remember JFK, RFK and MLK! ;) I sure do, though. I was in Jr High (Marina del Rey) when JFK was shot and my male history teacher broke down and cried and that really scared me. A month after 9-11, Pleasant Hawaiian Holidays offered the LAFD free trips to Maui because no one wanted to fly. The LAFD refused the free offer and we paid a small amount- I think it was $500.00- and it was donated to firemen's widows and children. (((Hugz)))
Hi Danna, I will never forget that day. I still get chills when I think about it. My husband called me & said "Turn on the tv - NOW!" I said "What happened???" He said "Just turn it on! I have to go." I sat there & cried - I cried for days, & I too was so angry. It still makes me angry, & it really angers me that so many have forgotten just what these terrorist are capable of. 9/11 is my son's birthday, & he so hates that this day is tainted with that memory. Hugs
Hi Danna, I remember all those events. We will never forget. I am home for a few days but not caught up yet. It will be time to go soon, the 17 off to NY!
