The Art of Marriage Ops : $20 to Applebee’s Giveaway ! #marriageops


Marriages are hard work to begin with, imagine being married to a US serviceman who is always deployed. These deployments take a tremendous toll on couples and of course the kids. Keeping in contact via phone, email and now video chat. We didn't have that when we were young, but we do have a video our dad sent us when we were all about 4 and 5. Obviously not all marriages make it, just like our parents marriage did not. All the stress, the worry and living apart half the time, takes a toll and a lot of times these marriages will crumble.

As civilians there is a lot that we can do to help these people, who are risking their lives everyday for us, strengthen their marriages. You can make a small donation of $10, or you can help just by spreading the word.

If You Had Fallen Out Of Love With Your #BlackBerry PlayBook, This Video Will Change Your Mind ~!

(link to watch on YouTube)


Watching this video made me realize how for granted I take my BlackBerry Playbook. Before the 2.0 upgrade I resigned myself to the fact that I would never get to load android apps to it, mostly the ones I really wanted like Pandora, Netflix and Kindle. The upgrade took place over a week ago and I still don't understand what I am to do in order to sideload android apps, I am not very techy at all and this might take me a while. But I am enjoying the new features like the integrated email which I am going to link up today. I love the calendar and the way that I am going to be able to keep my entire schedule in one place.

I have always loved the video camera and front camera, the video chat which is now even better and soon maybe I can get the Kindle app on. So I am really looking at my Playbook in a whole new way. Sadly before now it has been pretty much a toy for the children. They have it all day long and always have it so dirty. From now on I am going to take better care of it and really use it to help me be more organized, and I am hoping to get the kids a Kindle Fire by the end of the week so they can keep playing their games, just not on my Blackberry Playbook!!
