Default I Wonder NUMBER 44 ...

I often wonder if I am understood ...

I wonder why that matters to me and why I spend time on it ...

I wonder if that plays a role in self-confidence, self-esteem ...

I wonder at how good I have become at controlling my irrational impulse decisions and allowed the good impulsives to outweigh them! (wondering if this makes sense, thus is it understood? LOL)

I wonder if most people in America have the "day off" on July 4 (except retail which is always open it seems)...

I wonder where I can find more Smilies besides the extra ones here where it says "more". I wonder if you all spend as much time as I do chosing my smilies and attachments... I drive myself nuts! LOL

Believe it or not, last night... I "wondered" which set of fireworks should I watch? From the roof of my 21 floor building, we had the choice of seeing two sets of Firworks that were set off in two communities to Celebrate Canada Day. I felt like I was watching a tennis match.

Below is a picture of my building that was taken in March when the Cherry blossoms were out. From our roof top garden, we can see the Ocean around us, Vancouver Island (on a clear day), the Mountains (where people ski), Downtown, Vancouver Port, Stanley Park ... or the guy who exercises every day in his bedroom, or on the balcony if the day is nice... and on and on...

I wonder if I can leave Wren some hugs and love.

I wonder how nice it was of Mr. Alffe to send me directions.

OMG I just read the directions and hope I can follow them. I assume they are directions from somewhere near Chicago, lol.

I wonder at how excited I am to make a connection with a man, group of survivors actually, from the 508th PIR (Parachute Infantry Division). I found their web site when looking for information about my Uncle Billy who parachuted into Holland on September 17, 1944, and was killed by a German sniper on September 21st. A very nice man who pointed me to a link about my Uncle Billy! I feel so honored, but sorry that I never got to meet Uncle Billy.

Uncle Billy. Oops, that link didn't work. He's listed under the link 'Taps' ... then 'Roll of Honor' ... then P for Peterson ... then under William.

Quote:
Pfc. Peterson Dies in Action Against Nazis

On the same day that a letter had been received from their son, Pfc William L. Peterson, paratrooper with the United States army, overseas, Mr. and Mrs. William Peterson of the Kelley community were notified in a brief telegram, Tuesday, from the war department, that their son had been killed in action, in Holland, on Sept 21.

In his letter, Private Peterson stated that he was well and asked his parents "not to worry about him as he would probably be back home in the not too distant future."

Private Peterson was born on Jan. 10, 1923, on the farm which his parents are residing. He attended the Kelley schools and graduated with the class of 1942. Always a favorite with his teachers and his schoolmates, William was esteemed and admired for his good sportsmanship and fairness in dealing with others.

Following his graduation from high school, he went to Los Angeles, Calif., where he was employed in the aircraft industry until his enlistment in the armed forces in January 1943. William received his basic training at Camp Robinson, Ark., where he volunteered as a paratrooper. He was transferred to Camp Benning, Ga., for further training Later he was sent to Camp Mackall, N.C., for embarkation for overseas duty. Private Peterson arrived in England in June, 1944. The details of his death are not known.

Mr. and Mrs.. Peterson have two other sons in the service, Private Leonard Peterson of Pennsylvania, who is at the present spending a short furlough at the home of his parents, and Private Paul Peterson, of Oceanside, Calif.

Besides his parents and two brothers in the armed forces, William is survived by another brother and five sisters. Three of his brothers-in-law are serving their country.
I wonder that the man was nice enough to email me immediately and said that he also had added me to their list for their newsletter which will go out in a couple of days. I'm going to submit Uncle Billy's picture and other information that he asked for.

I wonder who would give a rat's patootie about all that but me, LOL. I was inspired to check it out after watching, again, Saving Private Ryan. Good god. Dad said Uncle Billy's body wasn't sent home until November 10, 1948. The Hollanders buried the paratroopers in a cemetery in Holland until the soldiers could be returned home.

Actually, it seems appropriate now that I think of it since July 4 is just around the corner.

I wonder how good that beer and lime tasted that I just had.

Doody, I care and have great respect of such people as your Uncle Billy.

I wonder if Alffe knows I get a lot of something like ferns that don't belong in my flower garden.

I wonder if Curious knows how helpful she always is and how very appreciated she is.

I wonder if Addy knows how much I would like to have her surroundings from her apartment building.

I wonder if I will ever get my act together enough to work and how I'll support myself if I don't.

I wonder if alffe, Doody and some other kind people will please forgive me for writing such a stupid post rolling in self pity.
I tried - lol - adding some apologies last night and just made major mistakes. I had no idea things ever "got" removed by the posters and I did not mean to do that. By the time that happened I was too confused to continue
Me? Confused?
I apologize. I wonder if you'll forgive me, please

I wonder if Wren knows she totally confused me until I figured out she had a post in here before. LOL, no problem little girl!

I wonder at how late I stayed up last night to watch the DVD 'Shooter' with Mark Wahlberg. They weren't joking when they said it was a 'sitting on the edge of your seat' kind of movie. But then, Mark Wahlberg is very easy on my eyes, heh. Then I couldn't get to sleep until probably almost 2 am. I'm very tired.

i wonder why every place just doesn't have their fireworks on the night before the 4th of July since most people have to go back to work on the 5th of July and they're up late on the 4th watching fireworks. Dat's no fun.

Wren, I hope things will go better for you. I didn't see anything removed but I'm thinking you might need a hug.

I wonder if BF (befuddled) (((HUGS))) knows that I, too, struggle with knowing that I can make it on my own without getting a job again...

I wonder if I really am working on a dream to not have to go back to work ... and it seems to be working ... but depends, of course, in how much effort I can put into it...

I wonder if Alffee knows she is so much a part of who many of us are ... that there's no need to wonder about behaviour while she's gone

I wonder if anyone has responded to Alfee's wonder (in another thread) about her dancing frog so I think I'll share my thoughts. I would love to see a different atvar for you my friend... that is because the dancing frog means so much to me. Over the years, whenever the frog appeared, I knew you were here with us Alffeeee... sometimes you didn't have to say a thing... just posting that dancing frog was all I needed... I always thought I knew what you were intending to say when you posted your dancing frog.

I wonder if that interprets to say that I think the dancing frog should only come out at times most appropriate (to be determined by Alffeeee).

I wonder if that makes sense.

I wonder what others think about Alffeee's question about her Frog?

I wonder if I should tell you all how much I appreciate reading here whenever I can.
