These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives just so others may get to enjoy freedom. For that I am proud to call them Hero.

Gary Sinisel
Gary Sinise
Everyone knows Gary Sinise, the actor. But Wednesday Hero is profiling Gary Sinise, the patriot. Since 2004, Sinise has been playing for our troops around the world with the Lt. Dan Band as well as for charities and benefits. In 2004 he, along with author Laura Hillenbrand, founded Operation Iraqi Children, now known as Operation International Children, to get school supplies to children children in Iraq. The program has since expanded to help children around the world. He serves as the national spokesperson for the American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial raising awareness for the memorial and other veterans’ services. And in 2010 Sinise started the Gary Sinise Foundation to honor defenders, veterans, first responders, their families, and those in need.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives just so others may get to enjoy freedom. For that I am proud to call them Hero.

Wordless Wednesday – Happy Girls

 

Fresh From FriendFeed today

So I have attempted to make a bit more time in my life and have tentatively started blogging again. We’ll see how it goes.

Clean

Photohunt Saturday!

It’s been awhile since I did any type of meme so this is a good one to start with. This week’s theme for Photohunt Saturday is “Clean”

See more Photohunt Saturday posts here.

“Social Media”

It seems as though perhaps I fell prey to one of the downfalls of social media. The end effect of that is that I have been spending all of my computer time on Facebook, Google+ and Twitter (yes, that is shameless linking to my profiles) not to mention a few of the other sites. That’s not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself but I feel like I have lost a connection. Not to my own self but to other people, mainly those that are linked in my sidebar as well as a few others I may not have added yet.

There’s something about blogging (and participating in other’s blogs) that is much more personal than the one or two line posts on the social networking sites. Obviously I have gotten out of the habit and it may be another nine fucking months before I write another goddamn line but from here on out I think I will at least attempt to revisit some of the sites I love to read and perhaps start writing here again as well.

Don’t fucking hold your breath though…
