Question

So I've seen Alot of homeless people lately......and that brings me to this question.

If your homeless with no money or food where the heck do you get the cardboard and marker to make your sign???  Funny how most all of them are smoking too.  My husband always tells me to look at their shoes, if they look nice well then they aren't homeless. Pretty much all of them have decent shoes.

Long story short...get a J-O-B! Mickey-D's is always hiring.

Thoughts for Thursday

Happy Thanksgiving!!!! Wow what a day! I had to cook dinner for a bunch a very hungry Army guys. Man those guys can eat. We had a very nice dinner and I'm so happy that I was able to give back to them for all they do for us!! Great Day.

It's hard being away from home for the holidays but I'm so happy and blessed to finally have Michael home for a holiday. He's been gone so much of our marriage that it almost seems weird him being here. Let me break it down fast. we've been married 6 yrs and only spent about 3 yrs of it together. So this is such a blessing to have him here. All I kept thinking about when I was cooking dinner was wow this time last year was....well there really are no words unless you go through it. Let's just say I was very lost without him by my side. So that is what I'm most thankful for this Thanksgiving :)

I hope everyone had a very blessed day with family and friends!

A little of this and a little of that

So I've heard alot on the news about the new devices people have to go through at the airport and just want to know why people complain so much. Why take the risk??? Can't you just go through it and be done with it already?? When are people gonna understand that other crazy people (if that's what you wanna call them)what us dead??!!

I would love nothing more than to go into politics! I can very much hold my own:)

AND I'm not saying this because my husband is in the Army but I have always thought they get paid crap and should be one of the highest paying jobs out there. Shout out to all you men and women who get paid crap to give us Freedom!!

Oh and this Don't ask Don't tell policy should be voted by Military personnel only.  Just my thoughts........so if you don't like what I've said please feel free to get out of my blog.

thanks

Thoughts for Thursday

I'd like to start out by saying to all you Army wives REALLY??? we are all in the same boat, so why are some of you so well the b word??? I mean I'm pretty sure my crap smells like yours so get over yourself now. Don't get me wrong I've made some really nice friends but wow too many are the b word. (and I'm being nice)

went to Xavier's parent teacher conference today! it was good all up to the point where Sekota thought he should start throwing stuff everywhere! nice..I very nicely told the teacher we need to wrap this up if you still want your room in one piece.

My husband can't seem to put the garage door down in the am when he leaves (4:30am).....grrrrr it pisses me off so bad. i had to call him and let him know. good way to start the day.

I'm pretty sure i have to clean my downstairs bathroom at least 2-3x a day. my kids have bad aim...they get it from they daddy!  

if i have to hear or watch Finding Nemo one more time I'm gonna poke out my eyes.....just keep swimming.......he touched the butt

on a great note i don't have to cook tonight!!

is it sad when the highlight of your day is cutting "really cool coupons"???

Trials and Tribulations of an Army Wife: Sweet # 3

Trials and Tribulations of an Army Wife: Sweet # 3: "It was the start of summer 2007 and Mike was on his way home for R&R!!! Xavier and I were so excited to see him, it's was a long winter with..."

Sweet # 3

It was the start of summer 2007 and Mike was on his way home for R&R!!! Xavier and I were so excited to see him, it's was a long winter without him:( Anywho, so we had such a blast together! The 2 weeks he was home were the best two weeks I've had in a long time. No really! You try and be without your husband for a year and lets see how you like it. 

On a very sad Saturday I had to say my tearful goodbye and watch him leave and not see him again until December:( Well I had this feeling something wasn't right so I took a pregnancy test. My mom came down with a OMG look on her face and said "Mike did it again"!!! Not thinking we were gonna have anymore babies after Sawyer this was a big shock. So when Mike called me to let me know he made it back to Iraq safe and sound.....I told him not to make plans for Feb. His words: why??? who's getting married?? Only my husband would say that. So ready or not Sekota was on his way. BTW- we always get so many good comments about the name Sekota, and I wanted to let everyone know that he was named after one of Mike's guys who was killed in Iraq. That was his last name. It was so very important to both of us that we name him Sekota. Back to my story. I had a great pregnacy with Sekota. Nothing exciting was going on which in my world was great. And of course he was 5 weeks early and yes Mike missed the birth! My mom had to play the dad role!

I thank God everyday for blessing us with Sekota! He was such a wonderful surprise:)
