Lately, I do not have any desire to write. Why? Probably the events in my life that bring me down and want to make me crawl in a hole. Don’t worry. I see the hole but have no intention of jumping in anytime soon. I know that I have steered away from the military focus [...]

Butterfly and I spent Friday night designing rooms. She found a cool website for girls where they can play games, design rooms, and shop for clothes. Here is a screen shot of the room we put together. I am sure you can figure out what area is mine and what area is hers. Now, Butterfly will [...]

I recently asked Sgt. Honda what he wears when driving the general. He told me that it depends on what event the general is attending. Apparently, if they are going to a military function then Sgt. Honda wears his Service “A” or Alpha uniform. I have only seen him in this uniform once. It was [...]

Yesterday I went to a memorial service for a woman I met probably over twenty-five years ago. She is Lady Red’s grandma. She lived ninety-three years. She had children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. Amazing. What is more amazing is her life story. She had a hard childhood. She went on to marry a wonderful [...]
