Jac missing her DH

Jac,

I'm probably in the minority here and I'll probably get flamed, but I'm

always in trouble for something anyway. :) I don't see your post as being

about your political beliefs, but rather about your need for support right

now when you're missing your husband. Yes, he is away from you right now

due to a political, but that doesn't mean that you don't deserve our

support, no matter how any of us feel about the war or our troops being over

there or whatever. Your husband has a job to do and he is doing it, and

that is commendable. HE and YOU deserve our support, whether we are for or

against the war, the President, or anything else. I actually have no idea

what your political beliefs are, nor do you know mine, so this discussion

isn't about politics, just about your love and concern for your husband.

You're both in my prayers and if my opinion matters, I have no problem with

your posts about missing him. When I'm away from my husband or kids for

whatever reason and miss them, I can post about it. Why shouldn't you be

allowed to as well?

I was just trying to type up a message that tried to say something like

this, but it was no wear near as elegant. I ditto this message, Jac and I

truly hope that coming here and chatting with us all can help your aching

heart!

I too hope I don't get flamed, I never really get involved in these and I

truly appreciate all that everyone has to add to this group.

Actually, as long as you talk about your husband and what is

happening for you and him and not about the president or government

who got him there (either supporting or not supporting), I don't

think you're being political at all.

We can't deny that we have friends and lovers over in the sandbox.

It's unrealistic. However, when we write about supporting or not

supporting the political decisions that got them sent over there,

that's when it becomes " politics. "

Don't go, Jac.

I'm gonna chime in here too, because I have lived years with my husband

coming and going in dangerous parts of the world, and he's leaving for Iraq

after the first of the year --

Jac, dontcha dare leave -- we need you, and you need all the support and

friendship you can get, even if it's letters on a screen. We've always been

here for each other. Politics will always push buttons, but when your

frustration with government policy is really about how it affects your

personal day-to-day life, it stops being about politics and starts being

about caring.

I'm entirely against the war, and entirely for our troops, wherever they are

sent, for whatever reason. They are doing what they took an oath to do. They

can't do it without our support.

Dont leave :-) I know where you are coming from. Heck i wish so bad w

i could talk about what this effect has had on me physcial and

mentally and I know i cant blame anyone for the 6 pounds i have

gained- but myself, but with hubby gone and I'm in a constant worry

about him , One week i worry im not eating enough to keep a flea a

live then the next week im crying about 6 pounds i cant get rid of.Im

just all messed up right now- I have to find my way out of this hole

or these 6 pounds are going to turn into 60 pounds. But when i come

in to this group and i see another person living and breathing the

same fears as mine- It gives me courage to say If she can Do than I

can do it. Jac you are needed here on this message for more than my

reasons.

I agree wholeheartedly. You and your DH, and all our troops, remain in our

family's prayers ~ regardless of how we feel about the why of being there.
