If I only had one week to live, I would try to perform as much as I could. I would also try to help as many people as possible and then go visit my family.

What was your first job?

My first job was a percussionist in a Country band. I hated it. It was a one time gig, and I was glad of that. I was about thirteen at the time.

If you could put your picture next to a word in the dictionary, which one would it be and why? 1 Reply

I would have to say patriotic, because this word really expresses who I am every day.

Short Story of the Day

Rappaccini's Daughter - by Nathaniel Hawthorne

We do not remember to have seen any translated specimens of the productions of M. de l'Aubepine--a fact the less to be wondered at, as his very name is unknown to many of his own countrymen as well as to the student of foreign literature. As a writer, he seems to occupy an unfortunate position between the Transcendentalists (who, under one name or another, have their share in all the . . .read more

New GI Bill Incentives to Guard/Reserve Veterans!

Saw this on the news last night. I say it's about time. They've earned it. President Bush just signed into law the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008. It allows for all guardsman & reservists who have served at least 90 days on active duty since 9/11, entitlement to better GI Bill tuition assistance. The more time served on active duty, the more tuition the government will pay. For more info on this Act, you can check out the Fact Sheet… Continue

Virginia is for lovers.

Hello, beloved TroopSpace. Lovely, lovely TroopSpace. Oh, how I've neglected you! Hey everybody! Oh, I know it's been quite a while now and I thought I'd make it up with a lovely update! As some of you all know by now, I am finally reunited with Michael! They pulled in one day before his birthday. From what he tells me, it was the greatest birthday ever. Coming home from a tiring patrol to a beautiful wife [hehe], and sweet gifts! Ofcourse I was his BEST gift ever. But aside from that, I bough… Continue

Not Your Typical Job...and I love it!

As the tourist season starts, the days are long, usually hot and humid and occassionally rainy which is never fun to drive in. The windows fog up, people are sticking to the seats if not each other, the few windows that are open, the rain finds it way to come in pounding right ontop of you... People won't get off, others are upset that they can't on but after a ten to twelve hour day, after we go home, we get up the next day, a new day and might possibly do it all over again and again! I have… Continue

Cherrio's, Nemo and Oyster Crackers?

My son is a little over 20 months old. He's into everything! The other day my husband and I were in the living room watching Dylan run around. It was time for his nap and he just wanted no part of it what so ever. As Tim (my husband) channel surfed he stopped on a channel which was showing a lacrosse game. (My family is very big into lacrosse) Well, Dylan stopped what he was doing and sat in his chair. SAT IN HIS CHAIR FOR MORE THAN 2 MINS!!! LOL He loved watching tha game. I kind of stood back… Continue

UPDATE!!! :D

Okay, so here's pretty much what's going on for those of you that are interested. :P I've been busy going through the loads of junk I've accumulated throughout my life. Hahaha. I don't know about you guys, but I'm a pack rat! I like to save boxes of memories and whatnot. I know the Coast Guard provides movers to pack up my stuff, but I like to be more prepared. Since I won't be here when they pick up my stuff, I want them to be able to just get in and get out! I've gone through my clothes and… Continue
