All this from the mind of ME!!!!!!!!!!

I've been thinking a lot lately about odd things. Not that this is anything new. I think about odd things quite often. Things like what words sound funny. Porch is one of those words....it's a funny word...say it out loud you'll see what i mean. But anyway....i was watching Tool Time the other night. I know the show is actually called Home Improvement, but it was the Tool Time portion of Home Improvement that was actually watching! So i was watching it and i realized that quite often my blogging is like Tim's babbling. You know at the end of his show when he puts in his 2 cents on women or manners or men's behavior or kids or whatever is going on at home that particular day. This particular show was on how his kids have no manners. And he bet Jill that he could get them to have ONE meal using their manners. If he could then she had to do something for him but if he couldn't then he had to get her season tickets to the opera and go with her to the performances. Unfortunately i fell asleep before it was over so i can't remember if he had to go to the opera or not. My guess would be he did because he's just as wild as his boys are. But when he was babbling about men and manners it occurred to me that i do that often. I use my blogging opportunity to just babble about whatever is on my mind! So i'm gonna do that right now! Yesterday i was thinking about how sad it is that our kids know and understand abbreviations like R&R and words like Deployment. Those words are as much a part of daily conversation for them as they are for me. They say them so often i don't even realize it anymore. Until i heard one of my girls say it and her friend said "what? what's R&R?" Then it hit me that this is really sad that she not only knows the words but she then explained it to her friend. We think it's cute when they use abbreviations like PT , ACU, PX, DFAC and know what the Shoppette and Commissary are. But it's not as cute when it's the words dealing with the actual war stuff. Then it's just sad. I don't like that i have to know these words. I wish we lived in a world where our kids didn't have to know them. But we don't. So what can we do? I'm at a loss on this one. I do all i can to support my hubby and support my family. But i can't change the state of the world. Not on my own. Anyway.....these are just thoughts that go through my head. There are many many other things that go through my head. Weird things. Like is it still lustful thoughts if you are thinking about your husband? I think about this one a LOT. Because it's not ok to think of other men in such ways....but he's the one i love, the one i pledged my life too. He's the one that God meant for me to do these things with. So is it still lustful thoughts if my thoughts are about him? I'd be inclined to say no. But i'm not sure biblically where we stand on this one. I'm thinking if God meant for me to do these things with him and they are a beautiful wonderful part of our relationship then i can think about doing them with him too. Well....i'm gonna go. Babysitting and stuff going on around here! Have a good day!
