Random Thought: Enough Already

( Disclaimer: I am not writing this to upset anyone or discuss the differences in politics. I just wanted to get something off my mind)

I hang a flag on the flag pole in the summer, but I would not call myself a flag waver. I am patriotic, for the way that we lived here in the United States. I appreciate the fact that I live in America. I admire those that serve in our armed services.  With all of that said, can we just enjoy those facts, instead of trying to make mountains out or mole hills with the recent operation that killed Osama Bin Laden. Truth be told, the news has said his name  more and recapped the horrible events of September 11, more this week than they have since anniversary of September 11 last year.  I am not saying that I understand everything that took place or sure if I want to even know all of the details.  For me it is a little concerning that so many people are questioning the who, what and when of what happened and to me it makes it seem like they do not appreciate all the hard work and planning that our government and the brave service men and woman involved did.

I want to say THANK YOU to all of who were involved in this operation. I THANK YOU for making the United States of America a little bit safer. God Bless America.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
