Advice To Newly Married Wives

I see we have a few newlyweds around here these days. I am hoping to save you from some of the horrors I have experienced over my almost 10 year marriage. 1. Never ever allow your husband to shop with you as you will find yourself explaining to him. No Honey, Moonpies, Twinkies and Jolly Ranchers... Sign in to see full entry.

Because I Am 41 And Nobody Wants To Look At Mine Anyway!!!!

It's hotter than hot here in Michigan add the insane humidity and it's also very sticky. I swear if I take in too deep of a breath I suck up swamp water. Keep that in mind as you read the following conversation between Pamela and I this morning when I didn't put on a bra with a tank top. "Mom! You... Sign in to see full entry.

Army Fails To Support Soldier's Emotional Needs When They Come Home

My friend Courtney just called me and said I need to put this one out to anyone and everyone that will listen. Currently we are still trying to get Carl in at VA as they are jerking him around on actually giving him an appointment for more than filling out more damned paperwork. This is an article I...

Does Your State Have Dumb Laws? YOU BET!

In Florida don't forget to put the parking fee in the meter for the elephant tied to the parking meter. In Georgia don't cuss in front of a dead body in either the funeral home or the coroner's office. No whale fishing in Ohio on Sunday. If you are a husband in Arkansas you can only beat your wife...

Who Left Their Underwear In The Bathroom???

I have one rule in my house that is to never be violated. Nobody likes to pick up another's dirty underwear, so pick it up yourself. Hence the following conversation after Carl and James took thier showers last night. "OK, which one of you left the grubby underwear in the bathroom?" I give them both... Sign in to see full entry.

This Is My Life

From time to time I am reminded that I have a wonderful life and today is one of those times. Carl is laughing at me over a minor shock that I had earlier today. If he doesn't stop soon, I am going to injure him with the turkey baster. OK, fine the world is a bit bigger than my little corner of the... Sign in to see full entry.

What Moron Invented This?????????????

We picked up the kids tonight and as usual I had to confiscate more candy than the corner store sells in a month. One of the items I took tonight has me shaking my head in wonder. This is the most insane concept for something that CHILDREN put into their mouths that I have ever seen in my life. Yes... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Would They Trade You Off With

It seems Carl and I have started enjoying the Wife Swap show. Shhhhhhhhhh please don't tell anyone, I had admitting that. So the other night we were watching as a vegan was switched with a hunter. I watch the horror on Carl's face as the Vegan wife took all the meat in the house and threw it out.... Sign in to see full entry.

Hmmmm If I Can Convince Someone Of This.....

I got an email this morning from an internet radio station for Army wives. I had emailed and asked if they had done any kind of studies on the aftermath of combat for spouses. They asked if they could use my letter to them and post it as they want to do some research on the subject and see if this... Sign in to see full entry.
