Foreman Family

It’s amazing the things you can think of during a deployment. This is a song that will sum up all my deployments. There is no way you can go though three deployments and come out clean and all together there. Yes I did see a lot of action during my first deployment, not so much from my second and nothing from my third.

This country is getting better but the deployments still take a toll on you. The time away from your family and civiliation can wear you down after awhile. There is nothing you can do about it. But I do know that before I joined the Army I did not listen to songs like this one, but now I can’t sleep at night unless I listen to this song.

I have been to mental health and yes I have PTSD, but I think I can still function in society. I do feel better when I am on a deployment even better when I go outside the wire. This has caused a great concern for my family and friends. This is something that I can’t change about my life, but it is now a part of my life forever. There are a lot of things that I have not told my wife and never will. There are times that I really want to be left alone, but I know I should not.

This war has taken a toll on everyone involved. Right now I just want to say that I would do it all over again in a heart beat and if this is my last one, I will have to see what the future brings. But I do know that the military will always need people and I will join back up, Army Strong!

Here they are outside on this very cold snowy day! More photos are here! It’s nice and white outside with about 4 inches on the ground and even more coming. You can check out Richard’s blog to see radar images and more of what is happening!

It’s suppose to snow all day long so be sure to check out our pictures throughout the day. I know I’ll add more as we supposedly get snowed in, lol! They say over 14 inches of snow is suppose to fall in our area, not sure if that will happen though!

I wanted to post that I was able to get away for the weekend to knit! It was lots of fun! I have some pictures here. Not too many, just enough to show the fun! I don’t have any photos of me from the weekend, but here’s a photo of one of my friends showing off one her finished objects. She makes a lot!

The kids had fun spending the weekend with their friends. It was nice to getaway for a few days, but I missed my kids and were happy to come back. Hope you enjoy the pictures! TTFN!
