Military Wife's Poem

Military Wife's Poem is something that hits home I just had to share it. Many people forget that the family of someone in the Military is just as hard as the one who left.



...

I let you go a second time

You came back with more pain and hurt in your eyes.

That soon faded into black

You stared a stare so dark and lifeless

It just didn’t make any sense to me?

I always though my husband could never get PTSD

All day long I’d see a life less man

A man who has a million mile stare

Who would jump for no reason?

Angry at nothing and always in despair

Through the night you’d toss and turn, you’d sweat, you’d cry

You would always say I should’ve died

I told you something was not right

All you would do was deny

Paranoid beyond belief

Something was going on you could not control

You didn’t understand which way to go?

Who is this man? This man with no soul

The man I married had so much more

He cared, he cried, he laughed

He would always kiss me good night

I demanded to get my husband back

This man next to me is just not right

There came a time I drew the line

You realized that it is now the time

Time to get help before you fade

You wouldn’t be another soldier in the shade

You served our country

You’ve paid the price

It’s clear to see

More rough times then good

Seems like the way it shall be

I have hope and faith that one day

This invisible wound will disappear

Until that day

I will help fight the fight

Be by your side day and night,

For this journey that we call our life

I always see little hints of what use to be

I know that someday it will be

The real Joe and Me…

Thank you Mel Rusty...just beautiful ♥

Beachbody

I am really excited to mark today as 65 days completed with P90X. I had to push back a few weeks down to just stretching which is still working out I guess but not really to me.  I know it's a very important part of working out. I never really understood why before I started this program. It feels so good to stretch out in the morning.It was extremely hard for me not to workout. I crave it like I used to crave coffee. Now my body tells me I need protein shakes and water. I have a desire for fruits and veggies which I don't completely understand yet. I just know that they taste really yummy! I had to take in the consideration that if I didn't rest the tendon I pulled in my arm it would be a lot longer then two in a half weeks of resting. I pulled back took a deep breath and smile. I couldn't even lift my arm. Walking around a one arm Mexican was really hard. My lovely boys and hubby really made it easy for me. They took on my chores of the house along with cooking dinner. They are great! I have found that working out twice a day after taking two weeks off makes you really tired.

Yet, I have great news at 65 days.

Before P90X                                               65 Days In

I finally can see the start of my six pack. I have a biceps a mini muscle but I show it off in my tank tops. I have never really been over weight ever in my life. I have always been between 130 and 145.
I now weigh 142 it's unbelievable! I just added another band and yoga block to my workout. Gnc makes way to much money off my hubby and I. Like today another shake I had to get because I ran out. I can't stomach taking pills I don't care how big or little they are forget it. I have done every thing in the book. From downing them with my protein shake to plugging my nose and closing my eyes to wrapping it in cheese. I think at this point it's mental. I can't even take Advil it makes me want to vomit just the thought of it. My hubby laughs his butt off when I take my vitamins. The only reason I was able to take the horse pills they call prenatal vitamins was because my hubby stood right there telling how it was good for the baby. Then he would go into how I was the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world. I'm glad he continues to tell me those things  daily even not carrying his child.  I turned in my coffee for green tea. I took out sugar from my diet along with salt. I don't miss it at all. It's weird because before I would have not ever consider it. I love the way I feel everyday. It's amazing how I feel. Once I complete this program it's on to my next challenge. Insanity here I come!
