Catching Up

I promise I will catch up on reading everyone who has taken the time to read me while I was gone either tonight or tommorow. Things have been so busy around here that I have barely had time to breathe. Hopefully I will finish my livingroom today...just needs the second coat and trim to be done. I...

I'm just dandy

Just to let everyone know, I am just fine and safe. Just out having a good time for the first time in all too long. Lisa and I basically decided to run away for a few days and have some fun. Even went to ta 4-H fair, which had a ceremony honoring the troops and witnessed a gentleman recieve a silver... Sign in to see full entry.

The Last Time

Lisa came to mind for me today around 2:00 and I decided to call and leave her a voicemail to call me later if she needed to talk. She had to once again, say goodbye to her soldier and I knew she was going to have a rough go of it. I was surprised when she answered the phone and I could hear her... Sign in to see full entry.

I Am So Glad....

This day is finally over. OK, actually I have painting to do tonight and pray that the primer will dry over night even with this horrid humidity. The whole day just sucked, started out with no power and dealing with an idiot who doesn't have a clue about respecting others kindness. My husband caught... Sign in to see full entry.

Husbands, Power Outage And Cars

Yes, it finally happened. My husbands too nice nature came back to PISS ME OFF today. One of the things I adore about my husband is that he is extremely kind and giving to everyone. What I hate about that trait is the people don't seem to feel obligated to at least show some courtesy(sp?) in return.... Sign in to see full entry.

I Sure Don't Want To

Keep in mind I am not a poet and most stuff like this I write sounds like music in my head, the problem with that music is I can't play any instrument and singing is limited to the car with the windows rolled up. It's also a repost because the first time I posted it seems it came up blank. I Sure... Sign in to see full entry.

If You Were Here....

My husband is currently on a four day pass and is at a place that is set up for R&R for the soldiers.. He really needed this break. I could see the stress getting to him with each passing day, so when he told me he was getting a few days I was thrilled for him. As I was driving home last night he... Sign in to see full entry.

4 Women, 1 Soldier And A Reporter

I promised Offbeat I would post about my day. The fact that it's 2AM and I am just now getting home after leaving here at 1:30 in the afternoon should tell you that I had a good time. Today was actually part of a ritual/traditon whatever you wish to call it that The Girls and I seem to just do. One... Sign in to see full entry.

How Do You Say Thank You

Today, my house has brand new windows. If you want to know how that happened read yesterdays blog. Today, I had 3 Vietnam Vet's here installing them. I really feel odd having people do stuff like this...I know what this stuff costs and it aint cheap...I have argued and debated and done everything I... Sign in to see full entry.

A Day With Some Vietnam Vets

Maybe it's simply that the Vietnam Vets are still young enough to get out and about, I'm not sure but I find that my dealings with them are always an amazing experience. I needed new windows for my house. The house is about 80 years old and my husband was going to replace the windows last summer but... Sign in to see full entry.
