Stand back. I have a budget, and I know how to use it.

Just thought I would share this since we have military and military spouses on board here at the WIR- according to a presidential news conference all troops in Iraq will be coming home by the end of the year as planned!
YAY!

I'll let you know when my Nephew gets his orders to come back home, but right now he's still in Kuwait. It would be AWESOME if he didn't have to spend a full year there, but I'll believe it when he's back home.

Just messaged with my nephew tonight. Word is they'll be staying in Kuwait. I don't think it's as "gravy" an assignment as you might think. He's been in convoys there, & it doesn't sound pretty....

busy -- is he army or marines? that would be why it isnt "gravy" for him...im in the Air Force and most of the career fields dont go "outside the wire" like those 2 branches do...i have a lot of respect for soldiers and marines for that reason
