PERSONAL & PROPAGANDA:
I awoke this morning at 7:30am and after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 2+, the 2+ because I slept a little better and awoke to a return phone call from cousin Billy. I took my am pills at 8:00am. I did make it to Ash Wednesday's Mass at church in Milwaukie last night and I thought the service was awesome, the church was packed, and the mass was given in both english and spanish; and I think the attendee's were 90% plus hispanic. I did pick up the current issue of the Catholic Sentinel and there was a letter in there warning fellow catholic's of a despicable promotion mailer sent to many catholic subscribers, encouraging them to to join with an "organization" that was nothing more than "super pac" for republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich.
I am also trying to get my table filled for the AOH Mary Nolan event on March 3rd.
I will also try to update my Mehrens/Monahan blog again today and report on my AOH meeting again. I still need to contact Brother Buddy Nissing or his son Wade because Buddy did mention his wife Judy was hospitalized and I really wish I had found out more. I also recieved notice of the passing of U.A. brother Charlie Miles Son, Please add them to your prayers. I will try today to see if there is a hobby store around here today to find a “Shadow Box”. I also received a notice of “opportunities” to get into the “BULL SESSION” dinner and program, I did call Jim Moss and he did say the cost for the “union members” is the same as last year and he told me Ed Ellis would be getting in touch with me.
I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam, and Gerald at Kell's did comment that he appreciated the emails I have been sending out.
I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I'm not sure when I will post today because I will also try to update that blog also.
I also forgot to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE U.A BROTHER CHARLIE MILES FAMILY, FOR THE LOSS OF HIS SON.
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles, brother Buddy Nissing's wife Judy and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the family of brother Charlie Miles, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”
KAISER – M.S. REPORT:
My B.P. today is 136/77/61 at 1pm not too bad considering being so busy the last few day's, but I think it is because I got a good sleep last night. My last appointment with my neurologist went well and he changed some of my medications and he scheduled a new appointment for March 22nd to see how the new regimen is working, he did warn me one of the side affects may be some crazy dream's; and I must say they have been.
POLITICAL:
MY POLITICAL REPORT IS BASICLY UPDATED BECAUSE WE WILL BE GOING TO THE BLUMENHAUER CAMPAIGN KICK OFF TONIGHT, EVEN THOUGH KURT SCHRADER IS OUR NEW CONGRESSMAN; SO PLEASE MAKE USE OF HIS CAMPAIGN LINK, WE SURE DO NOT NEED “A BUSH'S BRAIN” CANDIDATE REPRESENTING US.
NOTHING MORE, ON THE DISTURBING NEWS ABOUT THE BILL PRESIDENT OBAMA SIGNED THAT SOME ARE CALLING ANTI-UNION; BUT UNTIL I GET CONFIRMATION....
THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA; THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT, AND THE END OF THE WAR IN IRAQ ? BUT WE STILL NEEED THOSE KEYSTONE PIPELINE JOBS, BUT IT APPEARS THE REPUBLICANS STOPPED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO GET THAT DONE BY PUTTING AN UNREALISTIC TIME FRAME ON HIM TO “GET ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED”, BUT I DO BELIEVE IT WILL BE REVISITED IN HIS SECOND TERM, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPUBLICAN'S APPEAR TO BE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO INSURE HIS RE-ELECTION.

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
The time will come when Sherrod is going to call me and ask if we have the resources to respond to an attack.
And if my answer has to be “no,” it’ll be too late.
That’s why meeting our goals now is so important – and why I hope you’ll click here, while we still have time, to help us get to $120,000 by February 29th.
I know it’s a little grim to think about, but that’s the worst-case scenario. And by acting now you can make the difference.
Please click here to contribute now. At this very moment D.C. special interests are up with $600,000 in attack ads against Sherrod and have spent more than $3 million to date. It’s starting to pile up.

Joining Forces: As part of the Obama Administration's commitment to America's military families, the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden launched their Joining Forces initiative, which will bring together all sectors of American society to lend a hand to military families, I have seen a few of their adds and they were very well done.
If you are flying the American Flag, please keep flying it until ALL our Troops return home, soon I hope as I am running out of yellow ribbon, and my flag is getting pretty faded.
At the 11th Hour, on the 11th Day, of the 11th Month a cease fire was signed to end the war to end all wars in 1918. How's that worked out so far ?

The American Rights at Work still needs help; now more than ever. We must not take our eye off that MAIN issue, The President?, and our two Senators haven't; E.F.C.A.

***GOOD LUCK, AND BEST WISHES MIKE & HIEDI***
PERSONAL & PROPAGANDA:
I awoke this morning at 5am and after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 2+, the 2+ because I didn't sleep really well so I took my am pills at 6:30am. I spoke with sister Danni yesterday and she told me that nephew-in-law Mike Shostek got a new GOOD job in North Dakota, and he and Heidi would be moving. I still need to contact Brother Buddy Nissing or his son Wade because Buddy did mention his wife Judy was hospitalized and I really wish I had found out more. Please add her to your prayers. We received our Voter's notice from the County and found out we are no longer in Congressman Blumenhauer's district, but in Congressman Schrader's. I still need to see if there is a hobby store around here to find a “Shadow Box” because Mike J. didn't make the retiree meeting and I forgot to ask him about it at the Union meeting. I did leave a M.S. Packet at the front desk at the Hall with Charise. I also received a notice of “opportunities” to get into the “BULL SESSION” dinner and program, I did call Jim Moss, to see if the cost for the “union members” is the same as last year, I had to leave him a message so I will try to email Ed Ellis, I never did receive a donation notice from last year for my taxes. Judi did also organize our 2011 tax stuff, and I need to get to work on that for our accountant.
I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I am really looking forward to our A.O.H. Meeting Tommorrow night, I just hope the weather cooperates. I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also forgot to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE AUNT DORIS MONAHAN AND AND THE MCGUIGAN FAMIES, while I couldn't make the Mcguigan funeral brother Mike did tell me it was packed!
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles, brother Buddy Nissing's wife Judy and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”
KAISER – M.S. REPORT:
MY B.P. TODAY IS 139/83/60 at 11:45am, better than the last few day's, but I think that is because I got a good sleep last night. My appointment with my neurologist went well and he changed some of my medications and he scheduled a new appointment for March 22nd to see how the new regimen is working.
POLITICAL:
MY POLITICAL REPORT IS UPDATED BECAUSE I HEARD WHAT THE SUNDAY MORNING TALKING HEADS HAD TO SAY AND I STILL NEED TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON IMPORTS AND EXPORTS AND FREE TRADE. WE WILL STILL BE GOING TO THE BLUMENHAUER CAMPAIGN KICK OFF, EVEN THOUGH KURT SCHRADER IS OUR NEW CONGRESSMAN; SO PLEASE MAKE USE OF HIS CAMPAIGN LINK, WE SURE DO NOT NEED “A BUSH'S BRAIN” CANDIDATE REPRESENTING US.
I DID HEAR SOME DISTURBING NEWS ABOUT A BILL PRESIDENT OBAMA SIGNED THAT SOME ARE CALLING ANTI-UNION, BUT UNTIL I GET CONFIRMATION....
THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA; THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT, AND THE END OF THE WAR IN IRAQ? BUT WE STILL NEEED THOSE KEYSTONE PIPELINE JOBS, BUT IT APPEARS THE REPUBLICANS STOPPED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO GET THAT DONE BY PUTTING AN UNREALISTIC TIME FRAME ON HIM TO “GET ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED”, BUT I DO BELIEVE IT WILL BE REVISITED IN HIS SECOND TERM, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPUBLICAN'S APPEAR TO BE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO INSURE HIS RE-ELECTION.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20503
STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
The time will come when Sherrod is going to call me and ask if we have the resources to respond to an attack.
And if my answer has to be “no,” it’ll be too late.
That’s why meeting our goals now is so important – and why I hope you’ll click here, while we still have time, to help us get to $120,000 by February 29th.
I know it’s a little grim to think about, but that’s the worst-case scenario. And by acting now you can make the difference.
Please click here to contribute now. At this very moment D.C. special interests are up with $600,000 in attack ads against Sherrod and have spent more than $3 million to date. It’s starting to pile up.
Thanks,

***2 NEW SPECIAL EDITIONS "WELL EARNED" TO MY ZERO LIST***
PERSONAL & PROPAGANDA:
I slept late again this morning until 9am, after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 2+, the 2+ the last couple day's was because I have done a lot of walking with my brace. I then took my am pills. I awoke to a 2+ because today because I walked across the street to play cards with neighbor Gary, while Judi, Peg and Shelly went to a sea food fundraiser with shelly for one of her workers churches. I did make the Union Meeting Friday night, and it was packed, 300+ members I think. Thank You, again; Brother Bob Porter for allowing me to participate in the opening ritual. It was a great meeting and I thought Al did a great job with his presentation on what to do with the April raise, and President Porter ran a very controlled meeting, but I wish I would have had a minute to talk with Brother Buddy Nissing because he did mention his wife Judy was hospitalized and I really wish I had found out more. Please add her to your prayers. I did find out that a lot of the members were very upset with Senator Wyden and Congressman Blumenhauer over their stances on “free trade” and the President's signing of a new bill that seemed to fly in the face of his “E.F.C.A.” stance? We received our Voter's notice from the County and found out we are no longer in Congressman Blumenhauer's district, but in Congressman Schrader's. I still need to see if there is a hobby store around here to find a “Shadow Box” because Mike J. didn't make the retiree meeting and I forgot to ask him about it at the Union meeting. I did leave a M.S. Packet at the front desk at the Hall with Charise. I also received a notice of “opportunities” to get into the “BULL SESSION” dinner and program, I will have to contact Ed Ellis and/or Jim Moss; to see if the cost for the “union members” is the same as last year? Judi did also organize our 2011 tax stuff, and I better get to work on that for our accountant.
I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I am really looking forward to our A.O.H. Meeting Tuesday, I just hope the weather cooperates. I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also forgot to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”

For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles, brother Buddy Nissing's wife Judy and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”
KAISER – M.S. REPORT:
MY B.P. TODAY IS 152/89/85 at 10:45am, too high; but I think that is because I have spent soo much time with my brace on and walking around. My appointment with my neurologist went well and he is changing some of my medications and he scheduled a new appointment for March 22nd to see how the new regimen is working. Based on what I learned at the N.W.O.L.C. E-bd I may be taking out my Kaiser Unfair picket sign.
POLITICAL:
MY 2 NEW "WELL EARNED" ZERO'S ARE PAUL RYAN AND RICK SANTORUM!!
MY POLITICAL REPORT WILL BE UPDATED TOMORROW AFTER I HEAR WHAT THE SUNDAY MORNING TALKING HEADS HAVE TO SAY AND I DO SOME RESEARCH ON IMPORTS AND EXPORTS AND FREE TRADE. WE WILL STILL BE GOING TO THE BLUMENHAUER CAMPAIGN KICK OFF, EVEN THOUGH KURT SCHRADER IS OUR NEW CONGRESSMAN; SO PLEASE MAKE USE OF HIS CAMPAIGN LINK, WE SURE DO NOT NEED “A BUSH'S BRAIN” CANDIDATE REPRESENTING US.

BUT WE STILL NEEED THOSE KEYSTONE PIPELINE JOBS, BUT IT APPEARS THE REPUBLICANS STOPPED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO GET THAT DONE BY PUTTING AN UNREALISTIC TIME FRAME ON HIM TO “GET ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED”, BUT I DO BELIEVE IT WILL BE REVISITED IN HIS SECOND TERM, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPUBLICAN'S APPEAR TO BE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO INSURE HIS RE-ELECTION.

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
The time will come when Sherrod is going to call me and ask if we have the resources to respond to an attack.
And if my answer has to be “no,” it’ll be too late.
That’s why meeting our goals now is so important – and why I hope you’ll click here, while we still have time, to help us get to $120,000 by February 29th.
I know it’s a little grim to think about, but that’s the worst-case scenario. And by acting now you can make the difference.
Please click here to contribute now. At this very moment D.C. special interests are up with $600,000 in attack ads against Sherrod and have spent more than $3 million to date. It’s starting to pile up.

http://www.lbeh.org/
Don't forget to say THANK YOU, to all those servicemen and women who have served or are serving.
NEPHEW RHYON IS BACK FROM AFGHANISTAN, AND NEPHEW CHRISTOPHER IS BACK ON BASE; BUT NOW WE HAVE COUSIN AMY PAHUT TO WORRY ABOUT) THE PRESIDENT DID SAY THE WAR IN IRAQ IS OVER. But a prayer a day from all my readers would still make me feel better.
LETS BRING THE REST HOME, NOW !!
Joining Forces: As part of the Obama Administration's commitment to America's military families, the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden launched their Joining Forces initiative, which will bring together all sectors of American society to lend a hand to military families, I have seen a few of their adds and they were very well done.
If you are flying the American Flag, please keep flying it until ALL our Troops return home, soon I hope as I am running out of yellow ribbon, and my flag is getting pretty faded.
At the 11th Hour, on the 11th Day, of the 11th Month a cease fire was signed to end the war to end all wars in 1918. How's that worked out so far ?
I DID MOVE MY AOH REPORT OVER TO THE MONAHAN/MEHRENS BLOG, MEETING TUESDAY NIGHT.
SPORTS:
I STILL HAVE TO TRY TO CATCH UP WITH MICHAEL ROSS TO SEE WHEN/IF HIS SPRING BASEBALL STARTS.
IT SURE WAS GOOD TO GET OUR BLAZER ALL STAR BACK YESTERDAY FOR THAT BOW-OUT WIN !
COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS & CHARITIES:
THIS IS WHAT I SENT TO LYNN AT THE JOINT COUNCIL.
HERE IS THE DIRECT LINK FOR THE M.S. WALK IN APRIL FOR WALLY'S WALKERS. (I THINK?)
http://walkorc.nationalmssociety.org/site/PageServer?pagename=wlk_orc_homepage !
They need to choose Portland, then Join A Team (Wally's Walkers). There doesn't seem to be any way to get directly to our team page.
The American Rights at Work still needs help; now more than ever. We must not take our eye off that MAIN issue, The President?, and our two Senators haven't; E.F.C.A. And based on what I have been seeing and hearing, the Republicans have Organized Labor directly in their cross hairs at least for the next 2 years.
THE LOCAL 290 “DON SALEE” MEMBER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; AND YOU CAN EVEN MAKE A DONATION THROUGH THE U.A. CREDIT UNION, I WONDER IF I WON THE BLANKET FRIDAY NIGHT?
UNION REPORT:
THE UNION MEETING THIS MONTH WAS FABULOUS, EXCELLENT JOB BY PRESIDENT PORTER AND AL, 300 +- MEMBERS, AND I BELIEVE THEY CHOSE THE RIGHT ONE OF THE MANY OPTIONS.
IT IS THE POLITICAL SEASON SO I WOULD AGAIN ENCOURAGE ALL YOU POLITICO'S TO GET A UNION BUG ON YOUR “PRINTED MATERIAL”, I PREFER HOLLYWOOD IMPRESS BECAUSE THEY HAVE “ALWAY'S” MET MY NEEDS.
FAMILY REPORT:
I AM STILL TALLYING UP THE MEHRENS FAMILY NUMBERS IN THE U.A., I AM STILL MISSING STEVE AND STEVIE ARNOTT'S AND JASON JACQUES BUT WE ARE WELL OVER 3 CENTURIES SO FAR. :-)
IT STILL APPEARS I AM THE ONLY “FOLLOWER” ON MY MEHRENS/MONAHAN BLOG?
BOBBIE, MY BLOG IS 6 PAGES AND 2,200+- WORDS.
I slept late again this morning until 9am, after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 2+, the 2+ the last couple day's was because I have done a lot of walking with my brace. I then took my am pills. I awoke to a 2+ because today because I walked across the street to play cards with neighbor Gary, while Judi, Peg and Shelly went to a sea food fundraiser with shelly for one of her workers churches. I did make the Union Meeting Friday night, and it was packed, 300+ members I think. Thank You, again; Brother Bob Porter for allowing me to participate in the opening ritual. It was a great meeting and I thought Al did a great job with his presentation on what to do with the April raise, and President Porter ran a very controlled meeting, but I wish I would have had a minute to talk with Brother Buddy Nissing because he did mention his wife Judy was hospitalized and I really wish I had found out more. Please add her to your prayers. I did find out that a lot of the members were very upset with Senator Wyden and Congressman Blumenhauer over their stances on “free trade” and the President's signing of a new bill that seemed to fly in the face of his “E.F.C.A.” stance? We received our Voter's notice from the County and found out we are no longer in Congressman Blumenhauer's district, but in Congressman Schrader's. I still need to see if there is a hobby store around here to find a “Shadow Box” because Mike J. didn't make the retiree meeting and I forgot to ask him about it at the Union meeting. I did leave a M.S. Packet at the front desk at the Hall with Charise. I also received a notice of “opportunities” to get into the “BULL SESSION” dinner and program, I will have to contact Ed Ellis and/or Jim Moss; to see if the cost for the “union members” is the same as last year? Judi did also organize our 2011 tax stuff, and I better get to work on that for our accountant.
I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I am really looking forward to our A.O.H. Meeting Tuesday, I just hope the weather cooperates. I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also forgot to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE AUNT DORIS MONAHAN AND AND THE MCGUIGAN FAMIES, while I couldn't make the Mcguigan funeral brother Mike did tell me it was packed!
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles, brother Buddy Nissing's wife Judy and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”
KAISER – M.S. REPORT:
MY B.P. TODAY IS 152/89/85 at 10:45am, too high; but I think that is because I have spent soo much time with my brace on and walking around. My appointment with my neurologist went well and he is changing some of my medications and he scheduled a new appointment for March 22nd to see how the new regimen is working. Based on what I learned at the N.W.O.L.C. E-bd I may be taking out my Kaiser Unfair picket sign.
POLITICAL:
MY 2 NEW "WELL EARNED" ZERO'S ARE PAUL RYAN AND RICK SANTORUM!!
MY POLITICAL REPORT WILL BE UPDATED TOMORROW AFTER I HEAR WHAT THE SUNDAY MORNING TALKING HEADS HAVE TO SAY AND I DO SOME RESEARCH ON IMPORTS AND EXPORTS AND FREE TRADE. WE WILL STILL BE GOING TO THE BLUMENHAUER CAMPAIGN KICK OFF, EVEN THOUGH KURT SCHRADER IS OUR NEW CONGRESSMAN; SO PLEASE MAKE USE OF HIS CAMPAIGN LINK, WE SURE DO NOT NEED “A BUSH'S BRAIN” CANDIDATE REPRESENTING US.
I DID HEAR SOME DISTURBING NEWS ABOUT A BILL PRESIDENT OBAMA SIGNED THAT SOME ARE CALLING ANTI-UNION, BUT UNTIL I GET CONFIRMATION....
THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA; THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT, AND THE END OF THE WAR IN IRAQ ?

It was a great meeting and I thought Al did a great job with his presentation on what to do with the April raise, and President Porter ran a very controlled meeting, but I wish I would have had a minute to talk with Brother Buddy N. because he did mention his wife Judy was hospitalized and I really wish I had found out more. Please add her to your prayers. I did find out that a lot of the members were very upset with Senator Wyden and Congressman Blumenhauer over their stances on “free trade” and the President's signing of a new bill that seemed to fly in the face of his “E.F.C.A.” stance? I still need to see if there is a hobby store around here to find a “Shadow Box” because Mike J. didn't make the retiree meeting and I forgot to ask him about it last night. I did get up to Gloria'z and delivered Dean a M.S. Packet, and Toni took one also; although neither She or Mike will be attending the “Walk”. I also left a M.S. Packet at the front desk at the Hall with Charise. I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I am really looking forward to our A.O.H. Meeting Tuesday, I just hope the weather cooperates. I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also forgot to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon, Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE AUNT DORIS MONAHAN AND AND THE MCGUIGAN FAMIES !
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles, brother Buddy Nissing's wife Judy and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”
KAISER – M.S. REPORT:
MY B.P. TODAY IS 134/80/67 at 2:30pm. My appointment with my neurologist went well and he is changing some of my medications and he scheduled a new appointment for March 22nd to see how the new regimen is working. Based on what I learned at the N.W.O.L.C. E-bd I may be taking out my Kaiser Unfair picket sign.

BUT WE STILL NEEED THOSE KEYSTONE PIPELINE JOBS, BUT IT APPEARS THE REPUBLICANS STOPPED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO GET THAT DONE BY PUTTING AN UNREALISTIC TIME FRAME ON HIM TO “GET ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED”, BUT I DO BELIEVE IT WILL BE REVISITED IN HIS SECOND TERM, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPUBLICAN'S APPEAR TO BE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO INSURE HIS RE-ELECTION.

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
The time will come when Sherrod is going to call me and ask if we have the resources to respond to an attack.
And if my answer has to be “no,” it’ll be too late.
That’s why meeting our goals now is so important – and why I hope you’ll click here, while we still have time, to help us get to $120,000 by February 29th.
I know it’s a little grim to think about, but that’s the worst-case scenario. And by acting now you can make the difference.
Please click here to contribute now. At this very moment D.C. special interests are up with $600,000 in attack ads against Sherrod and have spent more than $3 million to date. It’s starting to pile up.
Thanks,

Joining Forces: As part of the Obama Administration's commitment to America's military families, the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden launched their Joining Forces initiative, which will bring together all sectors of American society to lend a hand to military families, I have seen a few of their adds and they were very well done.
If you are flying the American Flag, please keep flying it until ALL our Troops return home, soon I hope as I am running out of yellow ribbon, and my flag is getting pretty faded.
At the 11th Hour, on the 11th Day, of the 11th Month a cease fire was signed to end the war to end all wars in 1918. How's that worked out so far ?

The American Rights at Work still needs help; now more than ever. We must not take our eye off that MAIN issue, The President?, and our two Senators haven't; E.F.C.A. And based on what I have been seeing and hearing, the Republicans have Organized Labor directly in their cross hairs at least for the next 2 years.

"NEW ERA FOR LOCAL BEGINS TONIGHT, SEE YOU AT THE MEETING"
PERSONAL & PROPAGANDA:
I awoke this morning at 7am and after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 3, I then took my am pills. I HOPE TO MAKE THE LEO MCGUIGAN FUNERAL TOMORROW AT HOLY CROSS AT 10am; please add his family to your prayers. I did make it to the N.W.O.L.C. E-bd meeting Monday afternoon and THANK YOU all for your generosity for “Wally's Walkers”. But I did find out I may be needing to break out my Kaiser picket sign and swith between the “Banksters” and “Kaiser” because of their changing from a good union ambulance company to a N.U. one. I am not sure when I will post today as I need to get ready for my Union meeting tonight and I will be checking to see if there is a hobby store around here to find a “Shadow Box” because Mike J. didn't make the retiree meeting yesterday. I also found out yestrday that good friend Bruce Temple has had a bit of a set back and is back in the hospital preparing for another operation.:-(
I will also head up to “Glotia'z” to check if Toni and Mike will be joining us on the M.S. Walk, and between the Labor Council and Gloria'z I think I recruited 3 or 4 more “WALKERS”. I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I should post at a resonable time today and I did put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also hope to remember to let everyone know about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.

I DID FIND OUT WHAT TIME LEO MCGUIGAN'S FUNERAL IS ON SATURDAY AT HOLY CROSS, is 10am; please add his family to your prayers. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROTHER/COUSIN BOB'S WIFE JEANNIE! I did make it to the N.W.O.L.C. E-bd meeting Monday afternoon and THANK YOU all for your generosity for “Wally's Walkers”. But I did find out I may be needing to break out my Kaiser picket sign and switch between the “Banksters” and “Kaiser” because of their changing from a good union ambulance company to a N.U. One. I did have dinner at Gloria'z afterwords and saw Jim and Susie Judge and found out Susie's B.D. was FEBRUARY 12, and between the Labor Council and Gloria'z I think I recruited 3 or 4 more “WALKERS”. I did finish my 290 archives design, now all I have to do is remember to take it to the retiree meeting Tommorrow. I think I have cousin Billy convinced to go to the next AOH meeting, now I have to try to get cousin Jim back involved. I did get the Photo of AOH cousin/brother Bob's installation and I did place it on both of my blogs. I also received an email from Brother/Uncle, Hank Burgess and he had actually reviewed my Mehrens/Monahan blog, and was quite impressed and reiterated that it was the Wallace side of the family that was from Tuam.
I should post at a resonable time today, but I still have to try to put the “WALLY'S WALKERS” link on my Mehrens/Monahan blog also.
I also want to remind everyone about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE AUNT DORIS MONAHAN AND AND THE MCGUIGAN FAMIES !
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”

STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
The time will come when Sherrod is going to call me and ask if we have the resources to respond to an attack.
And if my answer has to be “no,” it’ll be too late.
That’s why meeting our goals now is so important – and why I hope you’ll click here, while we still have time, to help us get to $120,000 by February 29th.
I know it’s a little grim to think about, but that’s the worst-case scenario. And by acting now you can make the difference.
Please click here to contribute now. At this very moment D.C. special interests are up with $600,000 in attack ads against Sherrod and have spent more than $3 million to date. It’s starting to pile up.
Thanks,

THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA; THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT, AND THE END OF THE WAR IN IRAQ ? BUT WE STILL NEEED THOSE KEYSTONE PIPELINE JOBS, BUT IT APPEARS THE REPUBLICANS STOPPED HIM FROM BEING ABLE TO GET THAT DONE BY PUTTING AN UNREALISTIC TIME FRAME ON HIM TO “GET ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED”, BUT I DO BELIEVE IT WILL BE REVISITED IN HIS SECOND TERM, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPUBLICAN'S APPEAR TO BE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO INSURE HIS RE-ELECTION.

OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20503
STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
H. R. 3094 – Workplace Democracy and Fairness Act
(Rep. Kline, R–MN, and 37 cosponsors)
The Administration opposes H.R. 3094 because it would undermine and delay workers’ ability to exercise their right to choose whether or not to be represented by a union. H.R. 3094 also attacks the freedom of individuals to choose the co-workers with whom they wish to seek representation.
I will put the prayers I have been posting again right here up front, and thank you all for Rhyon and Christopher and now cousin Amy.
“Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen.”
FOR THE AUNT DORIS MONAHAN AND AND THE MCGUIGAN FAMIES !
Prayer to St. Jude for Eternal Life
You are my solace, St. Jude, in the face of loss and sorrow. I pray that you will guide my heart away from the darkness of fear and into the light of Christ. May the hope that St. Jude keeps alive in my heart be a source of comfort to all those who grieve. For in that hope, we know God's mercy, and we trust God's promise of eternal life. My soul longs for the fullness of life, which is only to be revealed when I meet my Maker in heaven. Stay by my side, St. Jude, so that my soul will always know the power of your healing love. Amen.
**** My daily prayer, is to Mary Mother of God…..”O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today. For sister Danni, nephew Steve, sister Clare, cousin Mick, uncle Hank, nephew Aaron, Kelly's brother, Brother Bruce Temple; good friend and brother Jeff Lyles and their speedy recoveries, good friends Ron Wyden, Shelly Nelson, Pat O'baby, the families of aunt Doris Monahan, and Leo McGuigan, and those who are having health issues; protecting Christopher, Rhyon and Amy and all in need. We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help ALL of us, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever, Amen.”

Joining Forces: As part of the Obama Administration's commitment to America's military families, the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden launched their Joining Forces initiative, which will bring together all sectors of American society to lend a hand to military families, I have seen a few of their adds and they were very well done.
If you are flying the American Flag, please keep flying it until ALL our Troops return home, soon I hope as I am running out of yellow ribbon, and my flag is getting pretty faded.

"HAPPY 90th DAD, I JUST ABOUT HAVE YOUR SHADOW BOX DESIGNED"
PERSONAL & PROPAGANDA:
I awoke this morning at 7am and after 9+ hours of sleep I awoke to a 3-, I think maybe a touch of nauesa from my new pills; I then took my am pills. I STILL NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT TIME LEO MCGUIGAN'S FUNERAL IS ON SATURDAY THE 18TH AT HOLY CROSS, PLEASE ADD HIS FAMILY TO YOUR PRAYERS. TODAY IS DAD'S 90th BIRTHDAY, AND I HOPE HE, MOM, AND EVERYONE IS LOOKING DOWN ON ALL OF US WITH PRIDE. I am not sure when I will post because I have a number of errands today, and I think I am close to finishing my 290 archives design. I am also going to try to make the NWOLC BD meeting this afternoon, and put on my “SAD FACE” and pitch the M.S. WALK. I think I have cousin Billy convinced to go to the next AOH meeting, now I have to try to get cousin Jim back involved. I did get the Photo of AOH cousin/brother Bob's installation and I did place it on both of my blogs.
I did watch the Grammy's last night and the the tribute to my ALL TIME favorite love song singer “Whitney Houston” from one of my favorite movies, “The Body Guard”.
I also want to remind everyone about Brother Don Getman and the annual M.D. Poker fundraiser; April 1st up by the inn at the mountain. He did ask that I get the word out and invite any that might be interested. If you are interested and can make it give either Don or me a call.

POLITICAL:
I watched C-span and the (R's) are claiming that the Health Care Law passed violates the 1st Ammendment to the Constitution, because it violates the separation of Church and State; seems like a stretch to me but not unusual by those people. They keep calling it Obama Care and I think that will backfire on them because sooo many American's will now get health care and President Obama will be getting the credit.
THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA; THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT, AND THE END OF THE WAR IN IRAQ ?
