Oh, Dan! I know exactly how you feel because I cannot tell you how many times steemit has eaten my post when I hit the post button. There is nothing more infuriating after you have spent hours and hours of time editing and taking pictures and putting words together and looking up information to make the post credible. The one thing that I learned but do not always do is that you should copy your post before you hit that button. I have saved myself a couple of times by doing this but I cannot believe that one of my best posts or at least I thought it was my best post this happened. It was on a post I did all about flying in airplanes and it actually took me days to put it together. I don't think I'll ever do it again because it took too much time and I saved nothing. Now I'm done with the sad talk and I want to get on and let you know just how wonderful your post is that you presented.

Thank you so much for the great support in this challenge!

I know how much you look forward to going to Greece and I am just a little bit envious of your wonderful trip. Do not ever downplay the absolute beauty of this wonderful trip. I understand about looking forward to something for a long time and then finally realizing my dream. I am sure this much the same for you and this holiday. To be with people you love in a place that is amazing at a time in your life when it's perfect, that's pure Magic. I hope this year is as awesome as last year was. It seems to me like this is becoming a family tradition. Traditions are such wonderful things.

That was very nice of your son to go on a shopping trip to pick up the necessary items needed for comfort and fun. I must say that going to McDonald's or any other fast food place occasionally really does hit the spot. In other words it's good to do once in a while. Any more than that and it tastes just like junk food. We'll leave it at that.

Your chicken was absolutely delectable and I love how you cooked it up to Perfection with the skin nice and crispy. Oh my goodness! That is probably my absolute favorite way to have it. It's pure genius to have those little sausages with it. I have to admit a, I am a sausage girl as opposed to bacon when it comes to those kind of meats. I even played a little bit of Queen while I was reading the post. Queen's one of my all time favorites as far as bands and Freddie Mercury is the best. Throw in a little bit of David Bowie and I'm golden. Truthfully, I'm not much of a music snob I love it all. Thank you again and again for being a part of Market Friday and I hope you have a most wonderful holiday. May you have all the rest you need and come back refreshed and ready to battle the world again. Drive safe!
