As I flit thru a variety of blogs and message boards and read comments concerning Saddam's capture - one thing that amazes me is the resounding collective thought that this will mean our troops will come home now -- As much as I would love to see this happen it's just not going to be... We still have troops in Afghanistan and we knocked Osama's Al Quida (sp?) leadership out of commission long ago... Sorry folks we are still in this for the long haul - heck we still have a very noticable presence of troops in Korea and the truce for that war was 50 yrs ago... It will be a long time before we see our troops home from the "sand box" regardless of whom is in the white house... My heart goes out to the families that are separated during our holiday season or any time of the year at all and my thanks goes out to those over in there serving.... May god bless you all and oversee you safely in your journeys... But please don't be naive enough to think this will mean anyone is coming home any sooner... {{HUGS}}
Well that being said and off my chest - Day 8 of Freedom and I have never been more tired.... I guess all the stress of life is finally catching up with me... I am sleeping all night and heck for the past 2 days -- all day and still I am tired... The house is going to hell in a hand basket and I am making so little progress over it... Since I managed to drag myself to work for a few hours today maybe I can finally get a start on the kitchen when I get home... maybe.... I DID manage to get Dilen's room semi straightened enough that he can use his bed to sleep -- OR I can dump the laundry on it to fold and sort or both if I actually move my butt.... I did manage to get some of the laundry sorted and folded but there is so much more to do and WHY praytell do I still have SWIMMING SHORTS mixed in with the boys clothes?? *sigh* It never ends - it just never ends... Well I better go and look busy for a bit... Til next time...
