From me & my husband to you and your family, I wanted to wish you all a very, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 2009 has been full of ups & downs for me, and to say that I am ready for a new year is a major understatement. But I am grateful for [...]

Gee! I Wish I Was Back In The Army!

Hitting Our Stride

December 19, 2009

December 9, 2009

Hmm, so, today is what … December 9th? Yeah. December 9th. It is winter. Except where I am, you wouldn’t know it. Everybody else I know is getting snow. Lots of snow! And although I not the BIGGEST fan of snow, it at least means that it’s winter. Coats, sweaters, mittens, scarves.
Except I don’t get [...]

Babies & Such

December 4, 2009

I’m going to talk about something today that I don’t typically talk about. Trying to get pregnant. I haven’t really mentioned this topic in the past because, well — I didn’t really want to go there. I’m happy for those that have it so easy, but for some of us it’s NOT easy. However, I [...]
