Oh Janet Jackson how I feel your pain (Aka Amy's wardrobe malfunction"

By -
As most of you know last Friday night was the "khaki ball".
(those of you who don't know what that is... Khaki ball = Navy function for the peeps who wear khakis, e7 and above)
As most of you also know .. Amy doesn't "do" command functions. However,
because it meant so much to my dear hubby, I attended said khaki ball.. and even wore a (hold on to your hats people) A DRESS.
Cute little black dress I found, not too clingy, just right. Cute shoes (Angela would be proud) .

So here's me getting ready

..

However that is about as much of the outfit my sweet readers will get to see.

You see, much to my chagrin, when I uploaded my pictures to my computer Saturday, I discovered that my dress was so sheer that the light , from oh say a camera flash.. made the dress COMPLETELY SEE THROUGH.

This was bad enough.. however, to compound this there were MANY pictures taken that night, by MANY other cameras... boy would I love to be a fly on the wall when Daniel goes to work tomorrow.
(actually.. no I wouldn't)

Oh, Amy. I am SO sorry. SOOOOO sorry. Nate wants to know if Justin Timberlake was there and if there is any way you could blame it on him? He also says you'll probably now receive more invitations to parties. =^) But the good thing is you have your sense of humor. (I. am. so. sorry.) And, yes, I am proud of the shoes!

I am torn between laughter (as well as forwarding this story to everyone I know) and total sadness for you.

I admire your sense of humor about it...and about everything. I also admire your ability to weave a yarn that produces a good giggle on a Sunday night.

Love you.

You look wonderful. Your hair is so long, your face looks thin too...HOW sheer? In normal light it looked solid, right? SO only those that took photos will know? So sorry. It is kinda funny too though. Life is an adventure.

ohhh... you poor, poor thing!

I loved your comment about the Swap I'm hosting and I do hope you decide to join! I'm really excited to use this month to lift up and bless women and we bloggers are so fortunate to be able to reach across such great distances to do so.

Because we are military wives

By -
We spend 4 hours with our husbands in a uniform shop, followed by two hours looking for the right size of boot, because any time together right before a deployment is still time together. We try not to take the little things for granted for they become the biggest things when we don't have them any more. We stand in tears on piers, and are comforted and comfort women we've never met, because we all are feeling the same way. We cringe a little when people say "your so strong" because inside we are dying. We put on a strong face for our kids, so we can dry their tears, and calm their fears, and hide away that we have the same ones. We sleep alone most of the time, we worry, we cry, and we get up the next day and face life head on. We try to smile and brush it off, when people who don't know any better tell us how lucky we are because of all the "benefits."Medical, housing et al.. Not having to pay for a physical really doesn't make up for all the mi...

parental poll

A friend made a comment today that got me thinking. (dangerous I know) So, I was wondering, (if ya'll wouldn't mind chiming in) at what age your kids either did or will do the following activities... ok so survey says..... How old was/ or will you child be when you let them.... play outside with no parental supervision- sleep over at a friend's house - wear make-up - have a bed time later than 7:30 - go on a date - there are no right or wrong answers here, just curious.  Everyone is different and what works for one may not work for another, so no answers will be judged.. I am just wondering where I fall in the averages :)

It never seems to fail. I go shopping.. doesn't matter where.. just out shopping. Having myself a grand ol' time, whether it be shopping for groceries or things a lot more fun than that, shopping. Shopping is great, until.... I leave the confines of the store/mall etc, and head to the parking lot only to have NO clue WHAT-SO-EVER where my fricken frackin car is!! NONE! No idea at all, good thing I have a green mini-van, cause THOSE aren't common! So then I embark on the mission of trying to find my car. I try the nonchalant approach at first, strolling with purpose down an isle as if I know exactly where I am going. This process is generally complicated by a car following me to get "my spot", so then I have to feign forgetfulness, "OOPS, (looking around frantically) must have left something in the store." It's back to the store to "retrieve" non-existent lost item, and try the car finding ruse once more. This time I try the more distract...
