Well here it is 2011 an WOW an I sure glad to see 2010 GONE!! That year held some good times but mainly horrible times I am glad to see go! December 9th,2010 my husband FINALLY was able to come home from New Mexico he is in the Inactive Ready Reserves an is studying to retake the ASVAB to score higher incase he has to reclass an so he can go Active :) Feels so good to be falling asleep in his arms at night one of the best feelings in the world!! 

Now that Tony is home we are back to Trying to Conceive so wish us luck we want a baby more then anything in the world. So we NEED any extra baby dust we can get :) 

Thanksgiving came an went as well as Christmas my sister never brought my niece over to have Aunt Amber time. An there was an excuse of why they were LATE to Christmas dinner an why she didn't get my parents anything for Christmas BUT could brag about her husband's $15/hr job an how she went out to eat an had no worries of how much money was in the bank or going over in their account. Seriously if all you are going to do is come over an brag or bitch just keep your fucking ass at home. 

An old friend of mine who didn't agree with alot of my Facebook posts emailed me yesterday an wanted to start the New Year out with a clean slate an she apologized for being immature about the situation an blowing it out of proportion. Honestly I have missed our conversations we went 8 months without talking all because I got SICK of hearing civilian girlfriends,fiances && wives complain when their husbands went away for a week to work when mine had been gone for months an yes he was stateside but I couldn't go see him. So we chatted all day yesterday caught up on the past 8 months. 

With the New Year I doing a Project 365 so that come 2012 I can look back on the year 2011 an see how much life has changed,remember the best memories of my life && hopefully somewhere in there I will capture baby belly pictures. 

I am starting my own jewelry making home business an I am hoping it kicks off really well an I can make money even if its just what I spent on supplies I have spent around $300 on all kinds of bracelets an charms of course I did it when Tony was working so we weren't out of money. Now I am impatiently waiting for ALL my charms,beads an bracelets!

Treats 4 Troops has been really SLOW with donations but the Christmas Care Packages were received as well as the Christmas cards. I have received one email an a letter from one of the guys :) It makes your bad day turn around when you receive a letter or an email you weren't expecting to get either. So with the New Year I am hoping Treats 4 Troops takes off again :) 

I have also started Project Box O' Sunshine but sadly it hasn't taken off the way I hoped it would especially since it was to help send sunshine to those who were battling cancer or other serious illnesses an Military Families who are having a hard time with deployment or loss. I did though send out a care package to a young boy named Justin who is 5 years old an had a brain tumor but one December 7th he went through brain surgery an the tumor was successfully removed!!! He loves Spongebob so I painted the whole inside of the box BRIGHT yellow an it was really cute I used my cricut an spelled out Who Lives N A Pineapple Under The Sea Spongebob Square Pants :) I found tons of Spongebob bath tub stuff in the Christmas aisle so it was a MUST buy once Samantha gets home I will know if Justin got his box or not an what his reaction was. 

That is where I stand with life at this very moment an with the New Year I am going to TRY an blog more :)
