    Don’t watch your words, use them wisely!

    March 23, 2009 /

    We came back from a great vacation. Our bags were overstuffed, our ‘fun limit’ was about maxed out. Our spirits were high but the line to customs was ahead. It is interesting how emotions can take roller coaster rides in break neck speed. Rifling through my bags to find passport and declaration paper I approached the customs officer waiting at the desk. His first words were, “Welcome Home!” WOW!Wide eyed I looked at him and said a heart felt thank you! He meant it. I meant it. Then, after seeing my Military ID, he thanked me for my service! “I’m the spouse.” I said. He said he recognized that and…

    National Support Services for Military Spouses: Short List

    January 15, 2009 /

    Do you feel like you are ‘out there’ alone? Think that no one knows the craziness that is going on in your life? Do not rest on those thoughts. Take action and seek information. Take it on as if you were taking on a new project. The military ‘name’ every endeavor that they set out to bring into action. Name it! Easy to write advice when my mind is clear and I am not swimming nose deep in newness. However, there are support sources for you. Besides looking only locally, it is a good to recognize that there are National Support Services for Military Spouses. Here is a list of…

    Let Freedom Ring

    May 2, 2008 /

    It was Monday late-morning and we were waiting for the call from Hubby to say we could come out to the Armory and spend some time with him. My mother-in-law had dropped him off that morning as she, my father-in-law and our 14 year old headed home. The 5 year-old, 3-year old and I had enough PBS for the morning and were about ready to start pulling our hair out. We had walked the halls of this late 1950s hotel. We had strolled outside to the closed-pool that was in much need of maintenance. We had lingered in the lobby with the cool ‘frog fountain’ that I was rather unimpressed…

    Top Ten DAK values: a True Military Man

    April 25, 2008 /

    Seasonal changes help me value my source of year long strength! My husband is a leader, listener and life partner: full of love and laughter. I have listed Dave Letterman style, top ten attributes of Dale. I know it is a personal blog entry… but I know it is a good thing to share personal pride and bits of his personality. It is fun to write him up this way! 10. Love of music: loud and all types 9. Fearlessness in communication **Open home: studies, youth groups, work parties **Open Mind: listen, value, accept or reject ideas. 8. Change is good. Experience is Better. 7.

    A New Way to Connect

    March 7, 2008 /

    I haven’t contributed to the “Letters to You” blog before today, but I’m excited to do so! I joined the MilitaryAvenue team in early 2008 and it has been fun to jump into a new and exciting project. If you are reading this blog, you are probably familiar enough with the Internet to have at least heard of Facebook. It has gained some popularity and success over the past couple of years – roughly 65 million users with an average of 250,000 new users signing up each day! That’s exciting for the people at Facebook, but what did it mean for us at MilitaryAvenue? In mid 2007, Facebook created the…
