Losing it today. Long story. Son ships 6/20 for AIT and then possibly/probably (?) to Iraq in Oct. Too much in too short of a time.
People dying (2 in 1 week) during April, son shipping in June, grandson to be born in June, oh heck, you guys get the drift. Like I've said to people when they ask what's wrong.....
SOMETIMES IT GETS TO BE TOO MUCH, YOUR SHOVEL BREAKS AND YOU CAN'T AFFORD A BACK-HOE!
Sorry, just a bad day and it will pass, I will get back on my knees where I find the most peace.
ROFLOL My littlest son walked in while I was praying prostate on my face and said "are you sick?" I just told him I was down on my face before God praying for my family. Then hubby comes in and says "are you sick?" Son said "SHHHHH, she's praying." ROFLOL OK, maybe berfore I go prostrate on my face before God I should post a sign on my back not to call 911 that I am just desperate to be in His presence.
Love & hugs to all

Sweetheart yo\' is on my teeter totter .........just waiting to see which end goes bump (in the nite!)
Did some reading on your new drug, weapiness isn\'t mentioned, so it should be short lived. and not suprising when you think it messes with the brain chemistry that controls depression!
I don\'t have a son shipping out soon but I\'ve got 2 nephews and the father of my niece\'s daughter. Two of the boys are finishing up basic in the next couple of weeks - one already knows he will most likely be heading to Iraq when all is said and done & the other we aren\'t sure. The third just got back from the front lines of Korea (1yr tour) and was told he would be going to Afganistan in December and then they moved it to September. I pray for all our boys each and every day. My husband is retired but was active during Desert Storm. Just hold tight to that teeter tooter! I loved the praying story! gentle hugs.....
OK guys, thanks for the commments. Yeah, I checked the drug first too but still will be calling the mfg as I am having some other symptoms which appear to be very hormonal type. WHO KNOWS? After that, I will call my Dr. to maybe get a visit.
Hugs to you both. Carol - I will be writing you privy later, God willing, I get a minute.
Hugs to you both
That was hysterical (about being prostate!) But Man, I don\'t KNOW how you cope w/a family member leaving in the service! My prayers are many & for a safe journey.
Stay well, my friend and smile for He does have a reason!

Hey, my son will be out of the Marines in September, his 4 years are up! He has been to Iraq twice and I didn\'t realize that I was such a wreck until the day he called and said I\'m done going to Iraq, that\'s when I lost it. I know you\'ll hang in there because what other options are there? But if you need to chat to a Military mom, I\'m here..
OK KZ and CAMY, thank you so much. Yep, can think about it and have noticed \"big brave hubby\" flips very quickly past any military news channel like it\'s porn or something. LOL I suppose we all cope as best we can and his is DENIAL. I do to to a great degree I suppose.
CAMY - TWICE IN IRAQ? I say we send a bunch of pissed off medicated moms with suffering major rare unusual side effects over there and settle it. Think of it...if all moms, Iraq & US got together, God have mercy on everyone! Failing that our back ups would be the hormonal know-it-all females age 17 who are always for any & every reason pissed off. LOL Sorry, got to get my humor where I can so I don\'t lose it again.
Take care my peeps. Love to each & all
That\'s enough stress to send anyone over the edge...I\'d say you are coping remarkably well all things considered. You just stay on your face before God, he understands He had a Momma too!
Love,
Nan
Thanks Nan --- Maybe it\'s prep time for the ministry God is calling me into. Got the school selected and just waiting ON HIM to supply the way. Hugs...
