Been a while~ ARMY TIME
Been a while since we have blogged, seems that life takes you for long rides and doesn't let you get off the ride for a few months.
Our son has joined the Army! he is in the infantry, he is a rifleman.
Proud of him, think about him all the time and just pray for him and every other brave American fighting for our freedoms. I will say though, The Army is screwed up, so much mis-information for everyone. One guy has meals taken out of his check every other week and another has to pay 2 bucks each time he walks into the mess hall. You cannot get answers, or if you do they are never the same answer. I can ask my son to ask the "higher ups" but that only results in more push ups. I am not trying to bash the Army but, please do the right thing by each & every one of our soldiers. heck, they really do not make a lot of money and they have to pay for everything. The only thing my son hasn't paid for is his weapon.
If you break it down to what an E-1 makes in the Army is about 2.22 an hour and that is before taxes. Sad! :(
But as my son says, it isn't about the money it is about the honor and what I am doing for my country. It is my career, this is what I want to do and plan to do with my life. I say HOOAH!

New way for the blog to go
So it has been a while for us to use the blog, I have so many things I have my fingers in these days.
Politics
Military
Freebie stuff
Saving the earth
Saving America
It seems so much is going on these days, makes your head spin with all the information being thrown at you so quickly.
How the heck do you process all that is going on in the world.
We are so connected, we know just a few clicks hit a translate button and you can read what is going on in japan, Australia, Middle East, anywhere you desire to go. You can go in a few seconds and see it all.
Information overload, and with so many people blogging these days, and then they put there twist on it. Give it from there view point. Well then you have to take that into consideration also.
So for now, I will use the blog once again, but not just about politics, I think it is time to diversify!
