Really grateful that the military stationed me in Japan,3 years of not deploying and letting me enjoy my time with my husband is great even though I work 12 hour days I still get to go home to him :)and yes I was deployed in Iraq when I got my orders to Japan and I'm going to take advantage of my time with him :)

I hate when we get sick. Especially when he's gone and you have a houseful of sick kids and you're sick yourself. On the plus side, no one is vomiting yet. Figured we have to find the silver lining where we can so I'll be grateful for that.

Thank God for Skype. It often feels like my webcam makes my work, marriage, and family life possible. Today I'm grateful for the things it's easy to take for granted.

I need a vacation! Husband works 12-14 hour days and I'm home with 2 kids. I make dinner every night, do laundry, put kids to bed, iron his work stuff and I finally get to bed. I guess I'm at least grateful he's home. One day I hope to get time to myself...one day!

Starting to grateful for the upcoming orders to Minot..the MIL will never try to visit us..

When people are falling apart and sick when he/ she has never been, this is prob the wrong time to preach how grateful you are for life. The time will come for the sufferer to reach that point. No one cares about your videos of people who have it worse or your fb life-is-good musings- it's a spit in the face to those who are in pain and it is ignorant. Your cheery bubble of joy and happiness is annoying.

I'm very grateful to live in a quite, peaceful, drama-free neighborhood. And it's on base, believe it or not. I hope the next place we end up is this nice. Our previous base was just horrible.

When DH first left, I was grateful to have a break from the sex. Don’t get me wrong it was hot but holly shit I can’t keep up when he wanted it twice or more in a day. Needless to say some damage was done. BUT now that he is gone and it’s been half a year all I do is fantasy about it!!! (and it's not always with him, is that bad?)

Our neighbors are having us over for dinner a few nights before dh leaves. It was unexpected and I'm so grateful to have such good neighbors.

Everyone should be grateful that Sears is doing a program like Heroes at Home. Yes, it was frustrating yesterday with the live test run, glitches with birthdays, but there is no need to be rude with Sears and blowing up their FB feeds and being down right ugly. I signed up when they did a live test run in the morning, and was told different things about if it was going to count. If it doesn't then it doesn't. I was unable to get on at 2 since the page kept timing out. But that's okay... I'm just grateful that sears has a program like this.
