Diary of an Unconscious Mind

Welcome to July and my monthly Homemaker Tag at CreativeBreathing .   July is a month of optimism a time in our country to reflect on what the USA means to each of us, just like all birthdays are a time of reflection.   I was raised in a house filled with pride in our country, respect for the constitution that held our country together.  My parents were born during the stock market crash of 1929, they were teen-ager's during World War II and were married in 1950 in a time of renewal for our young country, raised 5 children during the turbulent 60’s, educated us during the 70’s, watched us start our own lives during the 80’s and 90’s and we lost them in the early 21 st century.  I was taught to respect the Presidency, the Constitution, and God.  I was blessed to have a father who loved the law, arguing and teaching with experience as opposed to fancy book learning.   My dad was a yellow dog Democrat, yet he was the most conservative man I kne...

Here are my tags so far

It is June which means Summer time fun, my hubby's birthday and my monthly Homemaker Tag. This month's tag is titled "Dream a Little Dream" for my wonderful hubby.  We met 12 years ago at work I had lost my mom a year before meeting him and my son was 8, I had given up on men or a happy ending so I stopped looking.  When I first met him I didn't really like him, but as time went by I started to get a crush on him. He was with me when I lost my father and my beloved aunt he has held my hand when I was scared and let me fly when I needed to.  He has helped to shape me into the woman I am and has loved me without question, though sometimes he wonders what he did to deserve me. He is my dream come true.  So I decided to make this tag with him in mind..the background is from a German Opera to symbolize his time in Germany in the Army. The woman is me with my butterfly wings flying into his heart. So Happy Birthday to you honey and to all who are celebrating this month....

This month Happy Homemaker Tag   I decided to salute the troops for Memorial Day...keeping with my theme of women I decided to honor the WAAC’s.   My aunt joined the WAAC in order for her to go to Nursing School in the early to mid 40’s, she graduated in 1947.   She once told me the story about going to nursing school with Bill Clinton’s mom and somewhere there is a picture of them all , my whole family was from Shreveport Louisiana which is where she started and then moved on to finish in New Orleans’s.   So here is a Big Thank You to all the Soldiers past and present who have given their lives in service to keeping us safe and free at home.  Will be adding nice ribbon once it dries How I did this I found a picture through a Google search on WAAC’s I then went to picnik to edit the photo.   Picnik is free and if you have photos on Picasa, flikr and off your computer it has multiple was to enhance or edit your photos.
