Duh<br />2. You must not love your man as much as I love mine. <br />3. Do you even know what's happening over there?<br />4. (Look of WTF?) No<br />5. Be a mom & dad. How are those reality shows btw?<br />6. What makes you think he wants to?<br />7. You never get used to it. <br />8. STFU<br />9. Obviously<br />10. I can't tell you (Just for spite and with an extremely serious face.)<br />11. (Deep breath and walk away without punching them).<br />12. No but I miss seeing his face and hearing his voice. <br />13. STFU<br />14. Don't be. At least he's not a (insert their husbands profession here.)<br /><br />It's truly incredible how inconsiderate and ignorant people who don't have family fighting in the military are. Even some of my own family members have made me think twice about punching them out. I thank God for the strength to get through these kinds of conversations every night.Mrs. Sykeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02091661956990236928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335606158433349051.post-40853331249361789862011-06-07T14:05:00.114-04:002011-06-07T14:05:00.114-04:00I always thought people needed to think before the...I always thought people needed to think before they spoke, but actually seeing these in writing totally makes it worse :) hahaKayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07154735376450760224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335606158433349051.post-54616660915550898402011-06-07T09:13:50.098-04:002011-06-07T09:13:50.098-04:00Haha, I'm sharing this with my friends, Allie!...Haha, I'm sharing this with my friends, Allie! Too funny. <br /><br />By the way... how on earth do you handle being a military spouse? It must be so hard, I'm so sorry... I hope he gets out soon. At least he's home now and not in Iraq OR Afghanistan...but then again, he signed up for it so it's his own fault. <br /><br />In MY opinion... some people should THINK before they SPEAK! Lol! ;-)♥ Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08549287581105427836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335606158433349051.post-30305947082007388262011-06-07T09:13:07.048-04:002011-06-07T09:13:07.048-04:00LOVE this everytime I see it!I had a mini-meltdown...LOVE this everytime I see it!I had a mini-meltdown yesterday & wrote my own "What NOT to say to me, right now " BLOG post-LOLAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17370740043122954244noreply@blogger.com
