Crisis or maybe not....




Okay! Things are getting a little tight....and I don't mean my clothing. It will be fine.
So I have to weigh in on this whole Rosie O'Donnell thing. I think that she has a right to her opinion just as I do. I think that calling for her firing is a very dangerous thing. I almost feel like some times we are entering another McCarthy era. Where if you speak out against the government you are going to end up disappearing or worse. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I am just an American who would love to have the government tell me the truth.
I do not believe in the "Iraq" war, I did however believe in going into Afghanistan. I am afraid that we are nowhere near a resolution with this and my sons will be the next generation of soldiers that will not have a choice circa Vietnam. I have 3 boys and I am not sure how to rectify this with myself. I really feel like it is time for everyone to come home.
I do support our soldiers and bless them and their families for the sacrifices that they make everyday. I could not be alone for 18 months at a time. They say that you find an inner strength, I think that as with not having enough money...you just get by.

Chris is out looking for a job. As much as I want him to get a job part of me loves having him home all the time. I know that the boys love it. It is just that we cannot afford it. I wish that money was not so important. I guess that if I was really honest with my self we would be more able to afford it if we got rid of some stuff...but it is really hard to go backwards. I think that if we are creative enough we will be able to make it until he gets a job...
It is so funny to me that there are people out there worth billions and billions of dollars more money they will be able to spend and on the other side there are children that go to bed hungry. We are not there...either way, not tooo much money, not to little. We have a roof over our heads and food to eat. So see things they are not bad, not bad at all...just tight. This place I have been before. I know tight and I know how to make it work. So we will be okay and in the long run maybe smarter...maybe more thankful.

It has been a crazy couple of months. Chris's mom passed and he got laid off from work. Things have been just a little stressful. It is weird though, I know that everything is going to work out. It always does.
The kids are great. Liam is growing like a weed and walks really well, I think that he just wants to keep up with his brothers. I get that. I was the youngest and I always wanted to keep up with my sister. She is a star. (hmph...she really is.) But even before she got married my sister was always a star. I wanted to be like her. I think that is funny because that is probably what made her most mad. I would steal her jewelry and clothing to wear...not because i was trying to annoy her but because I truly wanted to be like her. I do not think that ever goes away but now I just know that I am happy with my own life, maturity, is that you knocking on my door?
I am at work and it is after midnight so that I may officially say Happy Easter!!!
