I don't think we should be over there either. It's not about pride or sacrifice and determination, which all of these courageous servicemen and women have. My cousins are among them. It's about feeling that their lives shouldn't have been put on the line for this particular cause in the first place..and that's a matter of opinion, I realize. NO offense to Thistle Rose Weaving intended. <br /><br /> Headache woes - right now there are a number of things.. ragweed, moldy wet leaves on the ground, mold, period... and barometric stuff. I do find Alka Seltzer cold liquid gels really help with the weather headache, believe it or not.. and Benadryl helps with allergy headache but makes for a zombie feeling. Not fun, but I know what you're going through. <br /><br /> Just make sure you don't have a sinus infection (fever?) ....Karen thisoldhouse2.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03302171590212119499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-4059273141746388772011-10-23T10:21:43.133-04:002011-10-23T10:21:43.133-04:00Not sure how to respond to your post Hilary... As...Not sure how to respond to your post Hilary... As a veteran who is also married to a veteran I am very proud of the service and sacrifice of this young man. It was not his option to question why he was fighting in Afghanistan it was his duty to go where he was ordered to go and accomplish whatever mission was his to accomplish. I realize that most people don't understand why we are at war, heck I am not always sure why...but, if not us and our volunteer force -- who? Pretty sure that most people do support our combat forces and those that have been killed or injured in service to our country- but, these same people should also remember those that serve our country do so with pride and fierce determination to do what they view is the right thing.<br /><br />Okay, I am now off my soap box....Love Sydney's new rug! Sure hope the SA service is not too long - have to admit I laughed at you wish for a tamborine!

The proceeds from that goes to their inpatient rehab facility for chemical addictions. They are the only facility in the Detroit area that has a transition program back into the community. Oh, and the local unit gives meeting space for the local knitting guild free of charge, including use of the kitchen.<br /><br />So perhaps your Mom's SA doe something (anything?!) good like that...which would be someplace to center your thoughts while you have to be there?Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226371437929271405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-26439045310023649622011-10-23T08:16:13.173-04:002011-10-23T08:16:13.173-04:00Inspiring tale, for sure.

She said that when she got up each morning, she had a choice: be happy OR not be happy. She chose to be happy. Sounds simple, huh? Some days I have to fight to keep on the "sunny side" but it usually pays off. I love smiling and joking at the old grump at the post office...and before I leave, he usually is smiling back.LAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06462467778213463088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-5426976886924479142011-10-22T19:54:54.958-04:002011-10-22T19:54:54.958-04:00Oh gosh... headaches...

Hope a change in the weather will cure yours. <br /><br />You are certainly a better daughter than I ever was. My mom had really weird thoughts on life, religion, medicine. You would have had to hit me over the head with that church pew to get me to go with her.

Sounds like maybe you've developed a bit of a sinus infection, with the way that headache is lingering...and yes, I know I'm preaching to the choir!<br />Try throwing a HOT heating pad over your face and mebbe a tad tot of whiskey and honey...hope you feel MUCH better soon.lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16893239993587913260noreply@blogger.com
