For my new readers...

I want to share with you this post before you start reading the last 4 years of my life.

So no one will read anything on here and get offended, I want you to all understand that these blogs that I've spent 4 years writing were a documentation of my life. I was married to a military guy and we did *try* to treat each other as husbands and wives should.

I thought about deleting a lot of posts but then a thought came over me. I'm not ashamed or anything else for any of these posts in regards to my first husband. It was my life, and I appreciated it for what it was. So I blogged about it. Writing has always been my way to escape, vent or otherwise relax.

And as you will read, life took a sharp turn. And we began on new paths. And I will blog about it, because I appreciate my life now even more than before.

This blog is particularly special to me. It represents who I was and who I am now. So beginning a new one, after some thought, just wasn't an option. There are a lot of old posts on here that I cherish and I didn't want to delete them.

To the right you will see an archive of months. Scroll down and you will see August at the bottom of the list. I began this blog on August 15, 2005. When you click on a month you may see a list of blogs. If you scroll the page down and start with the last blog first and then read up, they will be in order and make more sense...LOL

Again, this is me. The past and the present.
