Trijicon decides to castrate their beliefs. #shame #tcot #military #fail
Now I'm pissed. Just read this updated article. After decades of printing biblical inscriptions on their products, Trijicon says they will send kits for military personnel to remove inscriptions and will remove inscriptions from all current and future orders because they don't want to offend anyone.
Well what if, as a Christian, I'm now offended because they are taking it off?! If I complain that I want it on there, will they add it back on? Of course not, because once again Christians are brushed aside.
I am so sick and tired of having to pussyfoot around people for fear they might be offended. Well grow a spine, people. We are all different and we can't all have it the way we want. If Trijicon wants to print biblical inscriptions, then they should do it. I think it is awful that they are kowtowing.
When will this insanity end? This is just ridiculous.

Muslims offended by bible passages on Trijicon scopes #tcot #military #iaminfidel
What happened to freedom of speech for the majority? Why is it that only minorities can say they are offended about something? For way too long now, we have been pushed around by groups, religious and non, that only serve a few. And now some Muslims are offended that Trijicon scopes have bible passages inscribed on them.
At Christmastime, CHRISTMAS TIME, the time we celebrate Christ, the reason for the season, we can't put out a Nativity for fear of offending 3 people in a neighborhood of 30 who don't want to look at it. If I'm not putting it in your yard, then go about your own business! People can be so self righteous, and yet I certainly don't see them offering to work Christmas day to keep banks, DMV's and other businesses open even though they don't want to acknowledge the day! Such hypocrites! I work with a Muslim who would not participate in any of the Christmas activities we set up at work, and that is fine. I have no problem with that. But I certainly didn't see him offering to work on Friday, Dec 25th. He was quick to take the day off with the rest of the Christians. And believe me, if he would have offered to work, the owner of the company would have let him in a heart beat!
It's as if people pick and choose what to believe in for that particular moment, which is determined by what fits them best at that time. The hypocrisy is astounding.
And now some Muslims in the military are offended about the bible inscription on the scopes, but oddly enough, aren't offended by what the scopes are used for! Talk about disjointed. It's okay that they're using scopes to help them increase their kill count, but there sure better not be a passage from a different religion inscribed on it. Oh no! This is just so absurd.
Do not misconstrue my frustration as frustration with our military. I love our military and stand behind them 100%. My husband was a Marine and has purchased his own Trijicon for use with his AR. I'm just a mother of 4 who is tired of the minority pushing us around and all of the hypocrisy that goes along with it.

I got my phone back
That's right! What are the chances of getting an iPhone back! Well apparently after my lovely husband sent a text to the phone stating he reported it stolen and was going to track it down she thought twice. She started trying to call people in my contact list to say she had the phone and wanted to give it to me.
Her unlikely story was that she didn't want to give it to security at the museum because she didn't trust them. Uh huh.
Anyway, we met up with her tonight and she gave me my phone back. I don't really know for sure what her reasoning was, but all I know is I'm now not out $200 to replace the phone! Whew.

Attn B1t@h who stole my iPhone at @DenverMuseumNS #thief #iphone #icurseyou
Is your life really that pathetic that you had to steal my iPhone? Really? 10 minutes. That's all it took. My Annie was being a big girl, using the potty, and I forgot I set it down in all the commotion of trying to potty train her, showing her proper hygiene, washing her hands. I ran back to the restroom, but you had already been there and stolen it.
While I am teaching my children to grow up with morals, care about other people, and have respect for property, you are out there teaching them a lesson, too. Shame on you!!!! What are you going to do with it? Sell it for a few bucks on ebay? Well save the money, because I'm sure that some day you'll need it for bail money, you loser!
And I'm putting a mother's curse on you! That's right, I may not be your mother (and you're lucky I'm not because I would BEAT YOUR ASS for stealing) but I'm putting the curse on you! You may have caused me a minor irritation of having to replace my phone, but one day you will look back on everything you've done in your life and you'll remember me and that day at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and you will feel regret. Yes, it is just a phone, but you will feel bad about your behavior and your lack of morals. You will be ashamed of your actions, and rightly so.
So go sell the phone on ebay or look through all of my personal information, texts with my husband, whatever it is you feel the need to do because you are pathetic. Go ahead. Remember, what comes around goes around.
Oh, and if you do end up with a conscience and decide to do the right thing, drop it off at the Commerce City Police Department, where my husband IS A COP and is tracking the phone anyway! ;)

Taking the kids out for the day
Today I am taking he kids out in public. We haven't really gone anywhere in a couple weekends. I told them my expectations for their behavior. We'll see how it goes.
I've been reading HAVE A NEW KID BY FRIDAY so it'll be interesting. Hopefully it won't end in a sea of tears (and I mean mine)!

There's a frying pan in my bed
Yes, there is a frying pan in my bed. I didn't put it there. Annie put it there. She carried it around with her for 2 hours after dinner. Then she came up to my room and brought it in bed. For me, this was a choose your battles moment. She wasn't swinging it. She just set her stuffed puppy baby in it. I guess it made a better chair than the basket she was using yesterday.
I just carried her to her crib, but I didn't put the pan in there with her. No doubt she'll wake up in the middle of the night crying for it. She loves to cuddle with things. It's just that usually they're soft and cuddly, not cold and hard. Go figure.
All of my children are so unique and different. But Aniella just beats to the tune of her own drummer. She is by far the most free thinking. She cracks me up.

For all the women who dare age!
I thought I would post this again now that the holidays are over. For all the women who dared to age and gain a few pounds, read Carrie Fishers response to all the hatred. It's priceless.

I found another reason to never put my phone down
So I was checking out different ereaders and wow they are expensive! I just couldn't justify spending so much money. The books may be cheaper and i'm sure it's easier to carry an ereader around in my purse than another bag, but it's still a lot of money up front.
But while I was checking out the differences between them, I came across the barnes and noble ereader iPhone app! And it's FREE! I now have access to all the ebooks b&n offers and every book I purchase is stored on my online account. I can also now download their free app for my computer so I can continue to read on my computer if I want.
However! I love to go to book stores and I really love the new library built in my town. It has a large room for he kids to play and a huge fireplace to read in front of. I just hope I don't look to silly surrounded by beautiful books while I read on my iPhone!

The Ride-Along was awesome!
Wow I'm so exhausted! Had an awesome night on my ride-along with Nick. He found drugs on a traffic stop, had a guy at gunpoint, (I didn't like that part), we ran code to shots fired (he drove really really REALLY fast), arrested a guy with a warrant, detoxed a drunk guy, and kissed me at midnight. ;) And just in case you were wondering, there is NOTHING sexier than my husband in his uniform sneaking down the street with an Assault Rifle. Ha Ha! Happy New Year Everyone!
