What it is like...

I've talked about this in the past, but lately there have been a couple of posts about loving soldiers. I have never ever been a poet I write from the gut and the heart, so I thought I would share what it feels like for me to love and be married to a soldier, specifically one in a combat zone. Mind...

In My Dreams...sort of

Do you ever have a dream or something that feels like a dream and you can't quite determine if you were wide awake or if it really was a dream? I get these from time to time and they tend to t hrow me off for the rest of the day. Last night (or technically this morning) as I got into bed I was... Sign in to see full entry.

A Soldier, His Mother And The Red Cross

I am sitting here in tears right now. A few of us from my organization have been going a bit crazy the past few days. We recieved a call from the sister of a soldier last Thursday. She had been trying to contact the Red Cross to no avail. Lines were busy, she would get through and someone would put... Sign in to see full entry.

Able To Breathe

As I stated in my earlier post when I was able to finally get online Carl sent me a very quick IM that had me a bit nervous. I really try not to let these little messages worry me, but more than once when he has given me something that short and limited, something serious has been going on. Well...

It's Going To Be A Day!

The day started out not so great to begin with. For some reason Verizon hates Mayberry and about once a month we end up without phone service for hours. My cell will work (which is also Verizon) but all the land lines for about a 3 mile radius end up out of service. I need that line more than I need... Sign in to see full entry.

The Little Things

The past few days have been pretty warm around here, so I keep opening more windows. I realized the every window in the house had been locked. While talking to Carl I asked him if he had locked the windows before he left. Indeed he had. Mind you I tend to have this sense of security here in Mayberry... Sign in to see full entry.

Lazy Sunday Afternoon

For the first time since sometime in June or July, I have Sunday off and I am at home. No fundraisers, no PR, no expectations from anyone! sunday afternoon was always Carl's time to lay on the couch and watch TV or go play in the woods during hunting season (which it officially is as of yesterday...

My Husband A Freak!!!

I told Carl today that Buck and Pam had invited me to go with them to the haunted house that we all went to last year. Mind you I love Buck to death but he is a sadistic MF'er when it comes to haunted houses. Last year he pushed Pam in front of him and egged on the actors to scare her. For Carl and...

31 Again!

While I was online with Carl tonight, one of the girls emailed me and asked what I wanted to do for my birthday because as she says, one only turns 40 once. I didn't respond in the way that crossed my mind; something about crawling under a rock and hiding until I look 25 again. Something about... Sign in to see full entry.
