Hello It's Sunday. Been a busy week writing this with one eye open the other shut tight. I am exhausted, had to take hubby to Er Friday.... migraines yes TBI and the PTSD can give a soldier a headache this tiem a whopping gynormous one doctors orders no marijuana , no crazy movements just take the prescribed meds I have given you. This ought to releive the pain you are experiencing. Marijuana what? oh yes the soldiers are believing this drug of choice works for them... hmmm we say it does't t some argue it does what do you think? I think it's a crock of BS , I find it an excuse to take a drug and state you have a marijuana card and you get he right to do this crap legally. Can we try something else??? Perhaps yoga, relaxation techniques and finding our selves versus taking yet another drug and putting it in our system and calling it a relief. had a chat with a nurse she tells me Mju is great for cancer patients when they are on their death bed. Then there's the issue that mj causes testicular cancer. Ugh , why are people choosing this drug to claim it helps releive their pain, why not choose a few drinks of vodka this releives pain too , it will make you pass out for a few hours then you feel no pain . Same effect right but at least you do not risk being put in jail or being high when you are talking to your family. I find these acts irresponsible, can people finally take responsibility for their actions and chose to make smarter choices if not for themselves at least for their families? Wacky world we live in.
Deal of the day? Let's see I am gonna shoot you over to you Tanget Outlet malls tthis weekend you can spin a whell at customer service to score so awesome dsavings yay! I love a great deal. Another choice might be to visit your local restaurant with your emntertainment coupon you can use you BOGO coupons I will be using mine buy myself a meal and get my lil guy one for free, yippee!

Caring for the Caregiver; the Heroes’ Hero.
Caring for the Caregiver; the Heroes’ Hero. Yeah! Recognition is great,especially as I eel the world on my shoulder today. this weekend took a toll out of me, I had no idea it would hit me in the manner ti has. I am trying to get myself back up to make clear decisions and function as I should. I am working today therefore, this is a huge help, chatting this over with my Momy was also a blessing. Having a conversation with God has helped too. My soldier cannot really comprehend what's going on and what is transpiring which makes this all to difficult to deal with at times .....sigh . Anywho please readthe above article it's beneficial for anyone who is a caregiver, soldier , wie , average joe, just read it. Have a great day!

Sunny Sunday at the park, our local park . There were families everywhere it was great to see families together enjoying the day. We had to be at the park, yep, it was a have to occassion which I did not mind. We had pizza with our Scout Den it was soo much fun, I even got our lil one to go outside and play and get sweaty yay! In this day and age video games and tv have seem to defeat me on my war on fitness but NOT today. Our trip to the park included our dear ol soldier aka Dad /Hubby we had fun. But the crowds got to him PTSD creeps up and BAM! a different person emerges, darn it PTSD! get a hold of yourself let me have my soldier we deserve that, oh well, he did have to retreat and have some down time. We let him have his much needed time and went to church while there, more excitement a lady fell to the floor... yep, ANXIETY attack she was immediatley rushed away by the paramedics , (umm sorry no cute ones to gawk at, geez after all I was at church and am married. hehehe). The lady will be okay they say . As will our family, as this PTSD continues to try to gain control of things the key to a loving family is to know how to react when this monster attacks, you have to have a backup plan and try to keep smiling if not smile learn to roll with the punches , it has not been easy to learn this but we are getting there. Whatever you do try to not give up, I try not to daily but with much faith , hope and tons of love I am getting thru this. And to those who are dealing with this I know you can hang on for the ride , your partner was chosen for you and its a ride we have to learn to deal with and in the process learn from all the curves and bumps on that ride.
Now for the deal of the day.... B&N yes! I just learned B&N has a akids club , yippee , the kids get awesome perks hit up their site for more info, I signed up my kid guess you might want to too, why should I get all the deals? Have an awesome day !

It's that time again...
Yes, it's the new year so Hellloooo 2013 , and I embrace you like non other. I can feel the fresh air the feeling of something new, the time for positive changes and loads of good cheer. I am of course a military wife, been thru alot of challenges over the past year and some of you have been on this rollercoaster ride with me. Well, I have removed a few layers and have accepted a few changes and am moving forward along with my child. My soldier is in the medical hold unit getting the care he needs I have also found this great program that is able to assist military families ans mostly the wives whose hubbies are needing specific care as mine does. I am so greatful to God, this country and the employees that have been so awesome in getting us thru these challenges. I have found the VA Caregiver Program to be something all OIF/ OEF caregivers to look into. www.va.gov/caregivers .
If you do nothing this year and if this seems to apply to you, checkout the Va website full of info about this program and others that might benefit military families.
My Free guide this week:
Well, I happen to stumble across a great piece of info, if you blog... Momcentral can set you up for free items to try yes free items. If you do not blog you are still eligible to get free items to test and provide feedback. www.momcentral.com because it is 2013 does not mean I am so not into getting free stuff. Wink, wink.
I also discovered by sheer accident a cool product line Melaluca which by the way, I am now a rep of this organization. I was never really one to be bothered by chemicals in some of the cleaning products well , I suffered a major setback from one of the products the other day and have lost wight , had respitory issues and hives, so i have decided to convert to Melaluca's conversion kit which is pricey but I have managed to budget for only the items I need for a mere $50.00 I will post the pics when I get my package. So with that said, sometimes in life, things don't always go as planned and we have to make a change .
Til next time, enjoy your change s and happy 2013!
