I have never been in the desolate desert. I have been over seas and alone in a nation that did not know me or want me. I have been alone and scared without brother or sister to keep me company. But I have never been where you are. I am past the ability of serving my country in the manner that you do. As each day passes, I can\’t help but think what I would give to switch places with you. Here in America, in our homeland, I see faces every day that take for granted what it is that you fight for. YOU fight for US. You fight for the the basic undeniable freedom that I DO NOT take for granted. I would swap places with you but that is not my calling. My calling is to be here as a citizen of this great country that you defend. If the tables were turned and I were in your position, I would want to hear this. You make me proud. Every story I hear about the sacrifice you pay makes me cry. This is not some propaganda bullshit or some news story gone bad…I am an American citizen that looks to my God above thanking every free breath that I get to take because of men and women like you. I am a member of the freedom loving groups and an active member of my local community. My sons are developing…hopefully into the freedom loving, God blessed men that you are.

He then proceeds to tell me he is not currently at school, he is sitting a mere 6 blocks away on the school bus. They are not letting anyone in or out of school and they have to wait on the bus until they are allowed in. 6 blocks away! sitting on a bus. Finally they lead the bus with full police guard they unload at the school with police protection they are lead into the school and told to go quickly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It turns out that a bank 3 blocks away was held up at gun point, where 3 men thought they could get away with a robbery. Since I have heard that 1 has been shot and taken to the hospital, the 2nd has been taken into custody, and the 3rd is still on the run... god knows where.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that moment that I received that call my heart sank to my feet. I am so glad he is safe now. Where I can smell his hair and touch his face and know today he will be OK. But what kills me as a parent is that we don't know what will happen and at what point we can feel safe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the link to the story: &lt;a href="http://www.wandtv.com/dsp_story.cfm?storyid=82800&amp;RequestTimeout=500"&gt;To close to home for me.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-6624850622383616909?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/6624850622383616909/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=6624850622383616909' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/6624850622383616909'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/6624850622383616909'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2007/04/910-am.html' title='9:10 AM'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-3305006253442741541</id><published>2007-04-16T21:49:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-04-16T21:54:44.349-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Virginia Tech</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;33 lives lost My thoughts prayers are with ALL families!As a parent I could not imagine the thought of sending your child to school for an education and see anything like today happen.

He would always make sure to look for me from time to time to make sure I was in fact watching. Then he graduated to bicycle riding even with no training wheels! That led to rides around the block and in our neighborhood.

He does this for himself only, he doesn't sell it. He is finding a way to rid his life of foreign oil and save money. The restaurants where he gets his oil have been taxed already on this "garbage oil" that would just be thrown into a landfill somewhere. Now our fine government shows up at his doorstep because our local news did a piece on him and his ingenious ways of benefiting the environment. They want to fine him and throw him in jail for 5 years for not paying taxes on his fuel.....WHAT! Yep he isn't paying state taxes aww poor government.... I feel so bad that they cant charge him 2.50 a gallon of gas and screw him out of the hard earn tax dollars they so rightly deserve! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put it simply... they are harassing him because he found a way to buck the system. &lt;br /&gt;I say good for him I just may have to look into adding cooking oil manufacturing into my home life for my cars.&lt;br /&gt;If you would like to read the article &lt;a href="http://decaturheraldreview.com/articles/2007/03/02/news/local_news/1021539.txt"&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; it's really interesting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me know what you think!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-4989120259266046327?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/4989120259266046327/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=4989120259266046327' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/4989120259266046327'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/4989120259266046327'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2007/03/just-stupid.html' title='Just stupid'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-1984204467331102368</id><published>2007-02-28T19:27:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-02-28T19:32:06.230-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Dark in here!</title><content type='html'>A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work.

For years he had faithfully served&lt;br /&gt;the people of the  Nation's  Capital.

Soon the&lt;br /&gt;word arrived,  Kennedy and Clinton would be delighted to visit the Cardinal .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As they went to the hospital, Clinton commented to Kennedy "I don't know why&lt;br /&gt;the old Cardinal wants to see us, but it will certainly help our images."&lt;br /&gt;Kennedy couldn't help but agree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When they arrived at the Cardinal's room, he took Kennedy's hand in&lt;br /&gt;his right hand and Clinton's hand in his left. There was silence and a look of&lt;br /&gt;serenity on the old Cardinal's face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally,  Senator Kennedy spoke:  "Cardinal, of all the people you could have&lt;br /&gt;chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you near the end?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The old Cardinal slowly replied "I have always tried to pattern my life&lt;br /&gt;after our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.   "Amen" said Kennedy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Amen" said Clinton.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The old Cardinal continued..."He died between two lying thieves.

The fact remains that a very bad thing occurred and someone was to blame. This soldier did a very bad thing and he was expected to pay for this. So he was convicted and sentence to 100 years. A time that he will most likely spend in a cell reflecting on all that he has done wrong. They might as well plugged his veins with a toxin and put him asleep. His life and the fateful decision he made is essentially gone now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The crime that he was convicted for was severe and it’s really sad, I digress for repeating this plain fact but, 100 years? What does it really mean to be sentence to 100 years in federal prison?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just this morning on the radio a local personality was at his wits end involving the case of a foster parent duct tapping his foster son and putting him in the closet for two days, after which he then set the child on FIRE and threw him in the river hoping he destroyed all evidence. What you ask did he get as punishment? 13 years!!!!&lt;br /&gt;WTF People!

If I had been there, it would have been painfully difficult to have done the right thing (i.e., try to separate the two before someone got hurt) because the wrong thing was so mesmerizing.

So St Valentine in all his infinite wisdom created VD (not the STD) So that men can be miserable if they don't buy the right thing I say let him off the hook and save your cash there are many things to do that don't cost a thing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exiting soapbox with applause from men everywhere.....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-2899775146829259382?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/2899775146829259382/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=2899775146829259382' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/2899775146829259382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/2899775146829259382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2007/02/happy-hallmark-flower-candy-company.html' title='Happy hallmark, flower, candy company screw you over day.'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-5397233601628425086</id><published>2007-02-14T08:33:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-02-14T08:37:38.370-05:00</updated><title type='text'>That’s Messed Up</title><content type='html'>Army still short-changing soldiers on defense: Remember "Shock and Awe"? The March 2003 display of super-destructive, yet precision bombs made the world think there was nothing American technology couldn't’t bring to war. Well, here we are, four years later, and the Pentagon still hasn’t armored U.S. soldiers nearly as well as it technologically could. There’s that NBC News report on &lt;a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16563771/"&gt;rocket propelled grenade-defending technology &lt;/a&gt;that Israel loves, yet the Pentagon won’t go there because it prefers a competing system made by Raytheon (wonder how much that contract has cost us, or what politician is in the pocket there) that won’t be ready before, er, 2011. And then the Washington Post reported yesterday that even armor upgrades on the Humvee (just to keep the IEDs from blowing through them, not neutralizing them) is still a &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/11/AR2007021101345_pf.html"&gt;work in progress&lt;/a&gt;.

I had the day off and wanted adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; To reward myself I decided to do my favorite thing Ride my ATV! I found a trail that travels up a ridge to the north running along an old fence line and then when you get along way up the trail it make a left turn around a sink hole and travels west down a narrow ridge. It is a beautiful trail, and then I came to the edge of the world, but being educated but not to smart I knew the world wasn't flat so I put my bike in 4-wheel, put it in low gear and gripped both hand breaks and started moving down the trail slowly and after I had gone passed the point of no return I had big deep ruts and a log laying in the trail. I stopped to study my situation and I concluded it wasn't good. I looked up and seen where others had made a trail along the ridge just above the one I was on, so I thought if I could maybe climb the side of the bank and get to the upper trail I could live through this ordeal. So I started turning slowly and it didn't take but a few feet to make things worse. Now I had one wheel going up, one going into a deep rut and one rear wheel high in the air. I figured out any more of this and me and the bike were going down this hill like a snow ball except there wasn't any snow and it was going to hurt. With everything balanced on disaster I desided I had to get off the bike if I was going to get out of this so I started easing myself off until I had one foot on the ground and then the other. Now I'm standing on the down hill side holding the bike from rolling over and by moving very slowly I gave it gas and eased it up the bank to the better trail. Now that I survived I will live to do something dumb another day.&lt;br /&gt;Some of the tougher trails can be survived with about 90% good luck and 10% dumb luck. I know we only live once, but I'd like to make it a lot longer. It's not often you have your whole life flash before your eyes I only wish I could stop it and change somethings. But, riding the trails I'm sure I'll get a chance to see it again. Fun is what you make it, fear just shows up. It kinda put things in perspective. I will ride again :)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-4719523530191062636?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/4719523530191062636/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=4719523530191062636' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/4719523530191062636'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/4719523530191062636'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2007/01/wild-ride.html' title='Wild Ride'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-1784106776379419245</id><published>2007-01-01T13:25:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-01-01T13:28:07.048-05:00</updated><title type='text'>My Wish</title><content type='html'>My Wish for You in 2007 &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts.

What a world!</title><content type='html'>It turns out that Wesley Snipes is now in Namibia working on a movie, rather than being seriously on the lam from the federal indictment unsealed on Tuesday in Tampa &lt;a href="http://www.tbo.com/news/metro/MGBXFHL7FTE.html"&gt;charging him and two others &lt;/a&gt;with tax-fraud conspiracy (and Snipes personally with failure to file for 6 years). Snipes is the gov’t’s highest-profile "Section 861" schmuck yet, and the word on the street is that IRS might finally, at last, be getting tough with these guys who are certain that the Code is interpretable as requiring only that foreign income is taxable (thus conveniently ignoring several other sections making it clear that all income from any source is taxable unless specifically excluded). Usually, even dumb people who are high-profile have an array of advisers who seriously want nothing bad to happen to their meal tick–, er, clients. Snipes apparently lacks these advisers, so when smooth-talking tax lingo-ists told him he could save $11.3M in taxes, he got all moist.

With a 26 million dollar bounty on his head no-one will catch him. I think back to that day, remembering being glued to my set and crying, wanting to run to the school to pick up my children and hold them as tightly as possible. I remember thinking of all the children that lost a parent. I remember all the parents that lost a child. Sisters, brothers, loved friends and heroes. What have we done since then to remember those lost? No memorial is done... sure the plans have been drawn.. I hear in the millions to build it. Why do we NEED something that cost millions? Would someone want to donate the materials and time to build for mere recognition of being a human being. We have countless millionaires that could ban together- don't we?? I am but a simple person with simple dreams and expectations. What can I expect.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The strength of our nation comes from our freedom, our liberty. Our rights as citizens are what our soldiers over the centuries have died to protect. It is an abomination that we should surrender them without a fight. And doubly so when it is our freedom to live as we choose that makes these terrorists want to attack us in the first place. They fear a nation of citizens free to speak freely, think freely, worship freely. They want a nation of slaves, who live with heads bowed, who want nothing out of life except to remain invisible, who tremble at the sound of a knock at the door. This is what we're at war with. We cannot allow fear to triumph over liberty. We cannot allow cowardice to be an excuse to surrender our rights. Maybe today's anniversary to provide a reminder to us all what courage really is, and what America really stands for.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-7357816775794682622?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/7357816775794682622/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=7357816775794682622' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/7357816775794682622'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/7357816775794682622'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2006/09/911-what-is-your-emergency.html' title='911 What is your emergency?'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-2551915506172292089</id><published>2006-09-08T15:07:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-09-08T15:13:26.493-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Rest in Peace</title><content type='html'>We had our trip last weekend, I took Monday off.

It was the 7th grade for me the 8th for him. I had never been the outgoing type-more introverted. His story goes a little like this....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;he saw me in gym room standing with 2 of my girlfriends listing to my boombox play the superbowl shuffle, gotta love the early 80's, he says I grabbed ahold of his heart and he knew he wouldn't let me get away. The night he saw me he called me. I had no idea who he was, never herd of him, and was a bit on guard when he called. I thought for sure it was a practical joke. That night he asked if he could keep calling me and told me that one day he would marry me. We became inseparable. I was full on smitten.  If you were to ask anyone in high school who I was they would say that's James' girfiend. We became one person. At age 14 I became pregnant and our parents totally fipped out. They instantly insisted that I have an abortion. So 7 weeks later I did. 2 days before I was to have the abortion my mother, in her panic mode, says to have the child put up for adoption. It was my choice! Not hers!&lt;br /&gt;I was angry as she drug me along to an adoption center to have the process explained to me. I was young and had to make a decision for myself, for him, for everyone. That child would be 18, graduated from high school, and planning his/her life.&lt;br /&gt;After that we had to struggle to keep "us" us. It was rocky. I thought it had bonded us more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have never dated anyone else but him, never wanted to. I am struggling with the idea that he could be tempted to have an affair much less have one. I need to forgive him, but I cant forget the hurt he has caused. I could see it if we falling apart for some time. There were no signs, no struggles. I was living in absolute bliss thinking everything was fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know he didn't have to tell me and could have just hid it.

I had to get out of the house and try to fill my head with better things. So on Saturday I packed up a cooler and fishing poles along with some wiggle worms and chicken livers and took the boys fishing. We had a really good time, we didn't catch too many fish, but we had fun non-the-less. I should say I hate to go fishing! Really... I wont take the fish off the hook and scream like a girl when the kids make fun of me chasing me around with the slimy fish. Plus I make them wear sunscreen and look silly making 2 growing boys put on sunscreen lol. Good time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday, as if we didn't get enough sun, I took them to St. Louis Zoo. We hadn't been in about 2 years and we spent all day looking at the animals and eating junk food. Got some great pictures I will try to post soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="styleDocument: [object]"&gt;All in all it was a good weekend and I managed to avoid the Mr. Most of the time, except a little on Saturday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="styleDocument: [object]"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="styleDocument: [object]"&gt;I've decided to focus all my time on the boys when I'm not working.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="styleDocument: [object]"&gt;:)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19871852-115378306209257202?l=madeninglife.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/feeds/115378306209257202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19871852&amp;postID=115378306209257202' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/115378306209257202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19871852/posts/default/115378306209257202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madeninglife.blogspot.com/2006/07/out-to-lunch.html' title='Out to lunch...'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08585230399673265771</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19871852.post-115332846719952169</id><published>2006-07-19T12:52:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-07-22T18:31:27.510-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Ok</title><content type='html'>I'm slowly beginning to try to live again.
