Deployment Graphics

These are some deployment graphics/icons.. I didn't make any of them. Most came from friends on myspace.






















Cute/Misc graphics and icons

These are funny or misc graphics. I snagged from various places.. I didn't make any of them. I just thought they were cute/funny..










You know he is deployed when...

I didn't make any of these. A friend on Myspace did.





New Direction

Since I can't tag right now, I will share the work of others. Some that I have picked up recently or someone has given me.. I hope to get back to tagging soon but not sure when I can. Right now I just don't have time to see if I have the creativity back.. I will be showing a lot of different kinds of tags and updating as often as possible. I got a lot of stuff uploaded to my Fotki album, that I really would like to share.

I will Update

I will update soon.. I will put up newer tags. I personally haven't tagged much since Chris left for Iraq. It seems he took my creativity with him. I have tried and tried. But I just can't seem to be able to do any tags anymore. I would love to but in reality I don't have time. Since Lauren started Pre-K and she only goes a few hours in the mornings I barely have enough time to do the grocery shop and house cleaning thing. Then she is so grouchy and hungry, she turns into a tiger. Then Caitlin and Jake are home. Caitlin being in third grade this year she has a lot of homework and not much will power to do said homework. So I am trying to get her to do homework. Jake to slow down to do his too, all the while Lauren whining. Then it is dinnertime, bath time and bed time. Then get up early and do it all over again. It helps the days pass so the countdown for Chris to come back.

Even though at the same time I am afraid of him coming back, being different, and this whole time of me being on pins and needles awaiting his returning "getting by anyway I can" and we not be compatible anymore. That is like a big fear........ This whole year or so being wasted or what have you......... I don't want to waste any part of life. Mine or the kids or Chris'. I know how delicate and how short life can be. I want the most out of it.

Life Gives You Lemons

Ok Life gives you lemons you make lemonade right? Well I should have a freaking lemon farm by now buddy with a lemonade factory. I should be able to supply the whole world with that tangy stuff.
Today was my mother in law's birthday. That isn't a bad thing. But I was wanting Caitlin to call her and wish her a Happy Birthday. Maybe even make her a little video of the kids singing to her. Well Caitlin decides she will have a battle of wills with me tonight. She wanted to see who was more stubborn. I won. She didn't want to do her homework. Jake went "dumb" on me and had to redo his paper six times because he wouldn't slow down to pay attention to the wording on the paper.
Then there is precious Lauren. Who is a big grumpy butt since starting Pre-K. I guess she is going to start needing naps again.....
I went back to the dentist today. He had to fix my tooth I broke Friday. Which hurt me all weekend long. Thankfully I had that Vicadon put back from a few months ago. It didn't help too much but it did help me through the day yesterday. Then to top off me feeling yucky I still have this damn cold that has been giving me trouble on and off since MARCH!!
My mother in law calls a few minutes ago. Telling me Bill (her hubby Chris' step dad that raised him) is on his way to the hospital. She had taken him to their local hospital but his heart was giving him trouble so they are transporting him to another bigger hospital. His pulse is too high for his heart thingy. (Defibrillator) something like that.
I didn't get to talk to Chris today and I am just generally moody. Oh and my sis didn't answer her phone earlier so I don't know if she is OK either...... She is having major problems with her leg and can barely get around and I feel like such a loser and a jerk for not being able to be in two places at once..
