A Big Thank You!

I just have to give out a big thanks to Tara Crooks and Star Henderson. Tara and Star were kind enough to include my websites in the resource segment on www.ArmyWifeTalkRadio.com on Monday night. Yesterday, Tara interviewed me for Tara’s T.A.L.E. at http://www.military.com/Opinions/0,,TTale_Index,00.html. That podcast will be available in about two weeks and I’ll be [...]

Free Postage for Packages Sent Overseas

In May of 2007, a new bill was introduced to allow for free postage on packages sent overseas to qualified recipients in qualified locations. This bill would allow a voucher to be presented in lieu or postage every other month on one package (first class letter or package of up to 10 lbs) to be [...]

Medical Retirement

By the emails I received, I realized I must have confused some people. I had some questioning if I was in fact an Army wife since there’s no way my husband could retire at 28 years old. I can promise you my husband was in the Army! During the first of multiple deployments, he began [...]

My Sunday

I spent this morning stamping while Rob is at his new job. Of course I put a few cards into envelopes before I took pictures of them. I ALWAYS forget! This one is a CASE of AngelaR. on Splitcoast. It uses the Do the Hula, Canvas and Happy Everything stamp sets (all from Stampin’ Up!). [...]

Retirement!

Yesterday, Rob officially signed out of the Army. He is now retired at the age of 28! He actually beat his dad to retirement by a few weeks. For those of you who don’t know, he was medically retired for respiratory issues. One thing I was not expecting was not to get his last paycheck. [...]

My Birthday Adventure

On May 31, I turned 31. Last year’s birthday was not so great. Not what we actually did but just the fact that I rolled over to a new decade. In fact, Rob decided we would start counting backwards so actually this year, I turned 28 for the 2nd time. Next year, I’ll be 27! [...]

Army Wives on Lifetime

The premier episode aired on Sunday, June 3. And I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The first 15 minutes or so seemed very jumpy but after that, it was much smoother transitions. I’ve heard many wives say that they don’t know anyone who acts in the way the wives on the show did. But [...]

The Move…Um, Wow!

Well, as several people have told me, since it was our final Army move, I should have expected that there would be some glitches! Everything went really smoothly at the old house when they were packing. They arrived on Monday and packed all day. I think he was a bit miffed because he said a [...]
