BLUE of the Mighty DEEP

 Gold of God's great sun.

Let these our colors beTill all of time be done, done, done, done.On seven seas we learnNavy's stern callFaith, courage, service true,With honor, over honor, over all.




I ain't gonna lie....this one hurts
4th of July..........no problem
Labor Day, Halloween......no problem
Thanksgiving.............no problem

but today i awoke with a pit in my stomach and an uneasy feeling.......a yearning , a strong longing.
today, i wish i was home.
today i wish i was gearing up with layers of hats, gloves and hooded sweatshirts.
today i wish i was standing around a keg for 10 hours.
today i wish i was inching closer to the fire pit during a game break.
today is my super bowl....my Christmas morning, my game 7 of the cup.
today is my day to gloat.
today is my day to gleem like a proud parent.

today i will manage to survive
today i will find a bar to cheer on the lads
but today it just won't be the same.

Go...............FIGHT....................WIN

Anchors Aweigh, my boys,Anchors Aweigh.Farewell to foreign shores,We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.Through our last night ashore,Drink to the foam,Until we meet once more.Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.
