I still catch myself calling his name....


It has been over a month and I still miss him dearly. When I see his collar or just one of his random toys I still cry. Even now just writing this and looking at his picture I can't help but cry like a baby. I can't even describe what he meant to me because he was so much more then just a dog. He was more then a friend and more then just family. It hurts when I get ready to go to bed and go to call his name and remember he won't be able to answer it. And I can't but feel unprotected because he is no longer there to watch over me and Katy. And it sucks so much that she will never know him or even remember him cause of the short time they had together. She will only have his picture and not understand how much it hurts mommy to see them. Why did it have to him that got sick? I hate saying this but I wish it was one of the others.

Dippy, We Will Miss You!

On Sunday we lost a member of our family. She was only 4 years old and we loved her very much. On Tuesday she was chased by a dog and cornered. Dippy is a very small cat, at full grown she is no bigger then a  6 month old kitten. Her little heart couldn't handle it and caused a blood  clot to go to her brain. We will miss  her very much but we are thankful for the time we did get to spend with her.
Dippy came into our lives when my husband found her at work and rescued her. He brought her home and Lil'Bit and Tiger automatically went into parent mode and started taking care of  her. She would sit on Sean's shoulders as  he sat at his computer and played video games. And she would either curl up next to me or laid on top of me when we took naps together. She was a very special animal and nothing would ever be able to replace her in our hearts.

Why There Have Been No Post This Week

Sorry about not posting lately. Things have gotten really heavy around my place.

We found out Monday that Bird has heartworms, and right now I'm out of work and we do not have the money to pay for it. So we are making some huge sacrifices to get her treated and Kiba and Lil'Bit tested and treated. Along with getting them the prevention so we do not have to worry about this anymore for all six of our pets.

We are currently selling off two of my skateboards (yes, I collect skateboards) for $50 each, my Vivitar camera and all its effects for $150, along with all our DvD's for $2 each and BluRays for $5 each. I am also willing to sell off some of my manga collection and my Shonen Jump collection.

Also as I said I'm currently looking for work. I am currently putting in applications at fast food places near my home, as much as I would prefer to do graphics or web design I'll take any job right now.

On a lighter note, post will be picking back up, but I will no longer be posting everyday or on the weekends, post will be made on Monday, Wednesday and Friday for now on. Fable 3, Batman: Arkham Aslyum, and The Darkest Hour reviews will be posted over the next two weeks. Along with the MoP:Beta Pandarian starter area videos on YouTube.

A Poem for My Husband

What Would You Say?

What would you say if I told you,
That I still find you funny even when annoying,
Or that I still get butterflies,
When you walk into the room.

What would you say if I told you,
That I still find myself starring at you for no reason,
Or that I still blush,
When you catch me looking at you.

What would you say if I told you,
That your sometimes right and I'm sometimes wrong,
Or that when your away I sleep on your side of the bed,
Just to feel closer to you.

Waring Content Is Not Nice and Has Bad Language, But Someone Has to Say It


I believe I have mention this before, about my baby sister's train wreck of a marriage to a PFC Tom McCreary. And in truth this post is mainly for them, which I know I'll get some ugly emails and messages  but, hey, the truth hurts, doesn't it. Now they'll see what they look like when they act like high schoolers instead of adults.

Within the year he cheated on her with an ex. But his family, who they were living with because she was the one working to support them while he collected a $400 check a month for being a weekend warrior, treated her as if she was the one that cheated.

She got over it and worked things out while doing her best to ignore his pathetic family, all because she loved him. Before he left for his deployment, he started sending the ex money, while Steph was recovering from a medical conditon and couldn't work. Then told her that he was done, but then changed his mind and got his act together enough to finish the paper work so that the military saw her as his wife. (Which he never turned in instead Steph did later.) But before his plane took off his mother did this whole pathetic bit about how Steph would spend every last dime of his pay check and demanded that he take his debit card with him and not add Steph to his back account, instead add her. (She must not know that it's her son's responsibility to support his wife.)

Here's the part most don't know. At this point she was living with me in N.C. and he is listed at Active Duty, but he wasn't supporting her, which the military really looks down on those that don't support their family. He is receiving an Active Duty pay check and BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing), and she was looking for a job to support herself and and trying to save the money to file for divorce. Now it gets a little fuzzy whether they were together or not, since it changed every five minutes. But she was fighting with him and his SGT to setup an allotment to support her, and she wasn't asking for much, but he decided to give her enough to show off that he was supporting her. Now Army regulations say that a soldier must support their spouse and family unless the spouse makes more then they do or the marriage ends.

By the time Tom returned home on R&R Steph had received two payments, and they had decided to stick it out and make things work. Now this whole time his family has been making her life a living hell and starting fights with my mother and other sisters, and Steph was back in T.X. living with my mother. Tom's first day back he picked her up and took her to a hotel, then dropped her back off at my mother's house the next, to not be heard from for days. When she did finally hear from him, he was at the ex's and told her that he had filed the divorce papers and she would be receiving them to sign soon and that he stopped the allotment. She couldn't wait to sign them, she was tired of his crap and didn't deserve to be treated that way any longer.

A few weeks of her waiting to sign the papers his family decided that the divorce wasn't enough and that they wanted more. His family doesn't live far from my mother, they actually live up the road from them. So one day when Steph was coming home with my PREGANENT sister, Sam, one of them decided to try and run them off the road. The cops were not called. A few days later, Sam was in a car accident, no one was hurt, when her tires came off the car. Sometime during the night SOMEONE had removed and loosen the bolts on her tires. Since there is no evidence to point fingers at anyone the cops were not called again. But come on, it's not that hard to put two and two together. It wasn't enough for them to get what they wanted or to torture Steph, they had to go and endanger both her and Sam's life along with a innocent unborn child.

Now, a few days ago Steph received a call from Tom, who admitted that he never filed the divorce papers. Mind you that he has not supported Steph for a couple of months now with the claim they were getting a divorce, and his SGT allowed him to stop the allotment, instead of following regulations. If you don't know the regulation or understand it then read this and this.

Now after the little car accident case his family realized it was time to grow up, or so we thought. But apparently they have grown bored with torturing and stealing from their own family (from what the rumors say). And really my family should be flattered that we can hold their attention without doing anything.

On Thursday Steph received a message from Tom's mother, Lisa, and these are her words exactly as my sister received them: “Stephanie I tell u one thing u tell ur mom anytime she wants to stomp my ass I am ready because I read ur blog so tell unless she can back her shit up don't run her fucking mouth about me.” And I am sorry for the language, but that shows how this woman acts. Now as far as her comment about my mother's blog, I have to laugh at the woman. My mother's blog is not linked to her Twitter or Facebook and someone would either have to get the address from her or actually Google my mother's name to find the blog. To have to actually go and Google my mother's name to find her blog and then go through years of post to find one that even mentions her son or the name “Lisa” is really pathetic. On top of that my mother never mentions anyone's full name and her post about Tom are true, and are way nicer then mine, I read my mother's blog and not once does she mention anything about his mother or that she wants to kick her ass. The posts that mention Lisa are about my uncle's ex, so to take a post that just mentions the name “Lisa” and turn it into something it's not is just really sad.

Once again this post is for the McCreary family, and I have to apologize to my loyal readers, not his family, that it had to come to this, but sometimes things have to be said in order to feel better and ignore the idiots.

And to the McCreary family, it really is flattering that you will pay this much attention to my family that you can just ignore your own. But it's pathetic that you have to stoop this low and endanger an innocent unborn child. Or that you still have yet to find something new to do other then make yourself look like the worst people on the plantet. Now if you will please grow up you might actually find the time to fix that spelling of yours or help your adult and married children create their own life and move out. And we will go back to being the bigger ones and ignore your pathetic attempts to flatter us. Oh, one more thing, I hope you have a wonderful day because I will.

What I'm Thankful For

Thanksgiving 2011


Everyone knows Thanksgiving is the time of the year to be thankful for the things you have and for the family that is around you. It is not just for chowing down until you pop the button off you pants. It is also the time to bring family and friends together to have a great time and enjoy each others company.

It has been a long year for me with Sean deploying, Stephanie coming to stay for a few months, my mother-in-law remarrying, Jonni finding out that I have another niece or nephew on the way, Sean coming home for R&R, and the new kitten. Also with Sean coming for good, well at least til they deploy him again, in just a few days, I have a lot to be thankful for this year.

I am thankful for my wonderful family and great in-laws. My family has always supported me in everything I do, and there are very few people that can say they actually like their in-laws.

I am thankful for my husband. We may argue and not always get along but when it comes down to it I would rather have him beside me then anyone else.

I am thankful for my pets. They keep from being lonely and warm at night when Sean isn't here.

I am thankful for the roof over my head and the floor under my feet. I am thankful for the car that is in my drive way.

I am thankful for really everything in my life.

Even though I didn't really do anything for Thanksgiving this year. I tried to join in with my family in Texas with Skype, but that didn't work out on. The issue was their end and not mine. And I don't have any plans to go to any crazy sales for Black Friday. Instead I will be prepping the house for Sean's return.
