I thought about writing about what I’m thankful for or a little thanksgiving message for all of you – and then – life intervened and I thought that I would rather write something a little inspiring that would help us all see the rainbow at the end of the storm.
I’m sure most of you know [...]

No, we’re not leaving recruiting duty – yet.
But a chapter in my life, my husband’s life, and my families life - ended today. For those of you that read my biography, you know that we had two little girls who we were raising for another soldier during his deployment. All in all the girls were with us [...]

I found this on a board I belong to, www.refundcents.com, and thought I would share it with you all. If you’d like to take a minute out when doing your Christmas cards and send a card, or two, to a soldier overseas, you can do so through one of these two programs.
The address to send [...]

There was a period in my dad’s career that was known then and now as the “Dark Ages” and the commander was known as “The Dark One” (his soul was about as black as the tar on the bottom of the devil’s feet). It was a dark time in my father’s career – and it [...]

How do I manage to have about five boxes – that I found – chalked full of BOOKS?? Granted – I kept most of my college textbooks because I either paid a lot of $$ for them or I really liked them. Then there’s my books from teaching and the books my husband has for [...]

Well, it’s been a while since I had anything recruiting duty related so I decided to do a review of our first month here in recruiting duty.
Getting to your recruiting station:
Check your AKO often, even while en route to your recruiting duty station. Things change – and you could have every intention of going to [...]

Well, we’re home. We went down to my aunt’s house the night before my husband was to have his wisdom teeth out to make getting to Camp Pendleton easier – thank goodness we did – it made it worlds easier on us. He went in, and a little over an hour later he was done. [...]

Well, I may be absent from the internet for a day or two. We are heading to the Marine base so my dear husband can get his wisdom teeth out before he gets too far into recruiting duty. He’s having them surgically removed – which means cutting the gums open and breaking the tooth into [...]

Well, I’m a little behind on this post – but I went to my first FRG meeting this past Thursday. It was…hmmm…interesting. The FRG meeting was done via teleconferencing. We went to my husband’s station to listen to the FRG meeting. Granted, the battalion is only about 10min. from our house, but I don’t think [...]
