guilty because of all the times I got frustrated and yelled at him or punished him for things that he really couldn't help. Remember that "ADD does not CONTROL you....you have to LEARN to control yourself despite the ADD." don't kick yourself for having standards and rules, he will need to learn to fol
I'm up in the middle of the night because I'm at the point where I just can't get comfortable anymore. The house is quiet and my husband has been home for less than 12 hours. My son wakes up and calls from the other room, "MOMMY, DADDY, MOMMY, DADDY". I was right here on the computer, so I was able to get to him before he woke up all the way. I never did

A friend of mine is a psycotherapist....and she has had me do this several times. it sounds wierd to some people, but it really works...(a long winded discussion about endorphins and right brain/left brain connections....) But try it with an open mind and it may help Sit at a table with a pen and paper. Take a deep breath, relax your muscles and exhale. Using your right hand (I'm not sure if lefties should reverse this...I'll have to ask)
I felt almost homicidal, to be honest. Everyone wishing each other happy holidays, laughing and drinking and eating and being fucking merry and joyful....and all the time I wanted to scream. I know exactly how you felt. I've been there...on my son's first Christmas too. And it's hard to be happy abou
My suggestion....find a brand you like, that fits (that's the hard part) and then just stick with it. Shopping sucks unless you are a "perfect size 6". I have one friend who waltzes into a store and buys the one and only pair of jeans she brought into the dressing room. (internal GRRRRRR) I have a hard time finding s
come blog, please! That way I can convince MY husband to join too!
Thanks for sharing this Chiprj. I read the linked article too. Once again, I am profoundly grateful for those who have served....Thank you to YOU too.
Congrats on knowing who you are and what you want now instead of facing and agaonizing desicion at the last min because you "weren't sure what you wanted to do with your life". That's a hard one for lots of people and if you can get that knocked out, then you are doing pretty good.
So My Husband Is Finally Home. (Yes, that was said intentionally with Caps...it just seems to call for it) Suddenly I realize how much tension I had lying under the surface. Somehow when he walks into the room, I am able to relax every muscle that I didn't even know I was tensing up. I am content and happy. *happy little sigh* Of course, the ti
if you have to TELL someone you've earned their respect, you most likely have not You got it right. And now I can rest in peace, knowing that my mother is not the only mom like that.
...On the edge of my seat....great post!
Here I am....all fat, happy and pregnant!
"A series of unfortunate events" is a very cute series. Maybe cute is the wrong word....intentionally depressing in a cute way? They should not be compared with Harry Potter....just enjoyed for the misery they bring to the world.... i read them at ny in-laws house and breezed through the whole series in a few days...They are short, light and fun. no heavy thought required....

remember there are a lot of people who care and would be happy to help even after his two weeks R&R. Thanks! I will probably give you a call, just to keep my sanity after he leaves! <TD class="mb-Body
Thanks everybody. I'm so proud of you....! Dharma, I am proud of YOU too! It's never easy, but I know that you will come through with flying colors as well.
Congrats! I was hoping you woule be hired quickly!
I honestly believe it is better to love God and to question the teachings of man than to not love God and follow some doctrine blindly. God does not want us to be a bunch of mindless sheep, following him just "because". He wants us to learn and grow. While I do not have time (unfortunately) to go int
In my last blog, I commented that I have been fortunate enough to deal with a lot of things while alone. I figured I would start a list....This is similar to another blog...."I can" See my favorites list. I'm not going to list the small stuff...which is sometimes harder. I'm just thinking of the seemingly HUGE disasters that happen every deployment. It never fail
The last few weeks have been the interminable waiting stage of my pregnancy. It is almost a stereotypical response for a pregnant woman to be so eager to be desperate to "get this kid out!" I've been saying for several weeks that I didn't care if my husband was here or not, I just wanted to have this baby....NOW. Today, I found out that he is definetely
She was more concerned of having a hot meal herself than to actually teach her kids to behave. . sigh. That is so sad.
i grew up in the UP (Marquette area) and reading this article brought back lots of memories... I am too young to remember the EF but I grew up hearing the song and watching the freighters.
I'll second that one............check for a ring first!!! If you see one, just smile and say thank you. Yeah, Military Wives are notoriously touchy when other people start getting too close and personnal! My sweetie will miss my "Veteran's Day Thank You" but will be home just in time to see his
We decided this morning that we are going to try and pack as much living into the next few months as we can. We're going to create some wonderful memories to keep us going whilst he's gone.... I've been doing that for a long time and it's the best way to go. We end up doing a years worth of memories i
