This the story of how I became “The Happy Housewife.” You might want to start at the beginning. During the spring of 2002 we found out that we weren't the only ones headed to GTMO. We would be joined by the detainees. At first Sailor wasn't sure if it would still be a safe place to raise a family, but after talking to several people who were already there, we were assured that nothing much ...
Just a Little Leak…
This the story of how I became “The Happy Housewife.” You might want to start at the beginning. Sailor drove me to the hospital and stopped by the ER to let them know he was taking me upstairs and wouldn't be in for his shift until they checked me out.

That left me with numerous half-read books at the end of the year. The strange thing is, I've never been one to not finish a book. I usually read them cover to cover in a few days. I think one of the contributing factors is that DH goes to bed super early and ...
Chick-Fil-A Kid’s Meal Party
Earlier this month I was able to visit Chick-Fil-A's corporate offices in Atlanta, Georgia. While it didn't take much convincing to attend this event, I came away with an even greater appreciation for the company and their corporate values. Outside the headquarters. Inside the corporate headquarters. I'll let you in on a little secret, one of my favorite meals at Chick-Fil-A is ...
