When do you first remember feeling some type of jealousy? I was a little girl. My sister that 2 years older than I. Would get hurt or get sick and everyone would treat her like she a Princess. She always do things that make everyone feel sorry for her. She is more spoil than I.

The next time I felt jealousy is went I was a Young woman i fell in love with my future Husband. The ladies would be talking to him and I would get very mad. He could just be standing there in the store with my son. watching him so I could shop. The ladies would tell him that they though my son wasw very cute. I not being there to hear what they talking about. would think they try to take my Husband away. from me. One lady saw the look on my face and she told me that I have a very cute boy. and she was just asking my husband how old he was. After that I try to stay calm . Now he work with a lot of women at his job. I not jealsousy of any of them. I still do get jealousy but for dirfferent reasons.

Have you seen anyone wearing to much makeup? Yes I see that all the time. There are so many women that put on there makeup too heavy. Like for instant their foundation or face powder. It away you can do this and it don't have to look like you have any on. They heavy with the eye shadow and lipstick, Now young girls at the age of 7 is wearing makeup now days. If I ask my Mother about wearing make up at the age of 12 She would slap me good. I have a Grand Daughter who is 12 her other Grand Mother brough her a Make up case full of make up at the age of 10. I told my Daughter don't put make up on that girl. There is nothing wrong with her skin. 

My Son in law is trying to get my daughter to wear make up and she doesn't want to. So I ask him what wrong with her face. He said nothing so I ask him Why do you want her to wear makeup. He just though that since his mother wear make up she should. I told him if she don't want to wear it don't force her too. She has beautiful skin don't mess up put on makeup. I did show her how to put on make up just incase she change her mind. She did wore make up several months ago she was going to see her husband before he got ship to Japan. We had valcano erupt so her flight was cancelled. She did a really nice job. So she more than likely wear some again in the future. I don't have anything agaist make up it just that since the one I had broke me out. I am very careful what goes on my face.

What is your favorite month, and why is it your fav? My favorite month is September why first of all I got married, I was born in that month and I like to travel that time of year. September is a beauty time of year the first day of autum is near the 3 or fourth week of. The leaves on the tree turn red, yellow and orange. The Children and Grandchildren is back in school. The leaves fall off the trees and you see leaves everywhere. you get your rake and rake up all of those leavs. I have a lot of family members born in September too. My mother is one of them she too got marriged but she got marriged on her Birthday. I got marriged a week before my Birthday because at the time my husband was in the military and he was station in Germaney. He had to go back so that why we didn't get marriged on my Birthday. I was trying to be like my mother. When I have money I like to get on a plane and go to the East coast and visit my cousins and my Sister and other people. I do plan to go to California to see my son soon. I hope I get there before the snow fly.

Do you feel people take their marriage too lightly? It depend on who you are talking about. I been marriaged for 29 years come September 2 of this year. I had to learn how to deal with every day problems and the ones that pop up unspecterly. I had to learn how my husband is I had to learn his likes and dislikes. I know what would make him mad and I know what would make him happy. I didn't learn this over night. It took a lot of tril and error to find out a lot though making mistakes I made. I could have avoid a lot of things if I didn't let my feelings get in the way of doing the right things. I did pay for it and still am. Back than I was young and hard headed. I am older now and I do look back now and than and wish I didn't do this or that. I learn a lot but doing the right thing and from listern to advice from older friends.

My husband is learning too that everything he wants don't always be the right decide to make. we had to learn a very importan lesson in life. We still are and we will countied to learn for the rest of our life.

So people do and some people don't take their marriaged too lightly.

 

If you wrote a book what would it be about? If I can write a book it would be The Life of a Veteran wife. I would tell everybody what life is like being married to a veteran who has service connet disbilities from injuries from War or peacetime. Getting hurt in the Military is not  going to be easy to deal with someone who is in pain all time who can't walk that good who cough all the time. These are just a few of the problems. The others are problems with the mind.  Some was expose to AO . I don't know a lot about this but I do know a lot of Veterans who has problems that have be expose to this. and These spouses are have a lot of problems daling with them. So has gotting a disvoices others stay marriged. and Pray for there spouse.

As for my Husband we have a good understanding of each other. I know to leave him along so he can get hisself together. Or he tell me when he had a bad day and he want to be along. I do the same thing or I just go into the other room and stay there until I calm down than I come in the room where he at and than we talk. after talking to him a few minutes than I know if I want to stay in the room with him or leave him along . We don't try to do things to make each other mad. We try to do things that we both enjoy doing or being with each other. like for example When I come home from work he in the room looking at TV or he asleep if he sleep I go back out the room and let him sleep. but if he looking at TV I walk in the room so he know I am home from work, I might sit down and talk with for a few second if it something I want to see than I stay in the room with. After ward if we are hungry I get up and make us something to eat.

It takes a lot to understand what your spouse is going throught exspecialy the ones who has be in war or a comflint. who has be through a lot. They know have class for militrary spouses other half is getting ready to leave or come back home.  

What's the best way to cure homesickness? Keeping touch with family members back home. Going home at lease every 2 or three years. But if you can make it home before than do go. Another way is to meet new people and do things you both enjoy doing. It would help you some. You still miss home. But doing things to keep you busy it would not be so bad. I was home sick for a long time. I went home 10 years after I left it was good to be back with everyone. But you fond out that a lot of your friends and family has either pass away or moved to another State or Country. 10 years ago I came home to see my brother for the last time. I discovery a lot of friends pass away. I learn lot about my family that my parents did not tell me about but I learn a lot about them too. I lost my sister 2 years ago. I learn more about my family some wonderful things and some not so wonderful. There was some shocker too. One thing this time it did not feel like home. Why because my parents house got torn down. Now went I go and visit family I have to find somewhere to stay. I most likely stay in a hotel so I can come and go without causing any problems.

What's the best and worst thing about your position in the family birth order? Be the last one born in my family is sometime good but other time bad. Be the fourth child born and fourth girl born. when you are a grown woman the other children in the family still call you baby. they still try to tell you what to do. they don't think you know anything. they still treat you like a baby or little girl. Your life might be better than theirs but they act like they still have it better. We me my Sisters wish that they had made it like me I am marriged and have children and grand children. 1 of my sister is marriged but she and her husband is not together but they are still marriged. I told her if she is so misery get a disvoiced. My other sister separated from her husband and got her a boyfriend and her husband got him a girlfriend he later die. 10 years later my sister die of a broken heart. She had children and grandchildren. my other sister have one child no grandchildren. He son is retared. he can't have children. so she has all these nieces and cousin and other family members. Me I can say being the baby of the family has it up's and down. one thing good about it. I am still young. I left my hometown and home state because my husband was in the army. he out now but we stay were we are now. My life is more better what would have happen if I went back home I don't know but I am happy that I stay.

What do you have to offer a child? I would offer a child love a good home and food to eat send him or her to school for a good Education raise him or her to be a strong adult who know right from wrong and he or she would know how to live on their own and not depend on anyone for help. If he or she do need help they will know who or were to get it. This child would be very smart. if this child was a girl she would grow up knowing that she doesn't have to depend on a man to make it in this world she would know how to work have her own place and know how to save money. if this child was a Boy. he would know how to cook work save money and make it in this world and he would know he don't have to had a woman to live. I have Children and they all know how to make it with out a man and without a woman. We brough them up to know right from wrong and they all know what they have to do to make it in this world. They know if they need help they can come and ask us. But they are going to find another way before they ask us. that the way we brought them up. We taught them different from the way my parent did me. My husband parent taught him how to live in this world. He choose to have me as his wife. went we start having children we decieded on how we want our children to be. without anyone help. Yes we listern to everyone advice but we had to do what we though was best for our children. My Daughter is doing the same thing for her Children.

When you were/are in school, what was/is your favorite subject and why? I like History because I always intered in what happen before I was born. I be came interested went my Mother and Father start talking about what they did went they were little or my Grandmother would say something about what happen to her went she was young. In the 4th Grade My teacher had us study Virginia History it was good to read about the Indians about the mayflower and other things that happen. I still like History and would like to learn more while I can find out on the internet. I also like Genelogoy to it a history of your family. and since I start looking into it I have learn some nice things about my Grandparents and great GrandFather. My parent as well. I live in the state of Alaska and now I am study about what happen here in the past.

Would you stop eating all junk food to live 5 years longer? Yes I would if I though it would help me stay healthy. I notice that went I eat potatoes chips that have a lot of salt in them. my feet start swelling up. When I eat sweeties. I gain weight. Because I want to eat something sweet. With the chips I love eating them with dip. so I have to stop eating them and find some other kind of snacks that would make me more healty and keep my feet from swelling up. and keep the pounds off. I need to lay off the pizza too. and china food. Since I would like to live a long time I need to do things that going to make me feel better and help me get around more better.

What was the last thing you cried about? The last thing I cry about is when my husband wouldn't take me out to dinner on my Birthday and Anniversary last year. I cry about how my sil do my daughter and how my youngerst son is not working when he should be. I cry because my youngest son is back hanging out with his old bubby who help put him in jail in the first place. I also cry went I am very happy which is not very offen. When I go to California I will cry because I be very happy because I be going by myself and my husband will be staying home and I know that I will have a good time. I get to see my Oldest son and spend time with him. and he be taking me places. so that too will make me cry. I am a very emotional woman I cry went I am happy, mad, sad and depress. But that just how I am .

What did you do for the 4th of July?  I vounlteer my time working the Veterans 4th July Parade. I help keep the cars and people from getting in the way of the parade. After that My Husband and I would go home rest for a couple of hours. Than we go to the American Legion Post or VFW post for a cookout. if it not raining.  We sometimes go to Walmart or Lowes to look around or buy somethings we need. After that we go home and the Grand Children come over to spend some time with us. After they leave we get ready to relax for the rest of the day. This year we had extra help so I was able to watch the whole parade from start to finish. and that made my day because I Love July 4 it my flavor Holiday.
