I enlisted in the Army in 2005 and my first duty station was in Korea. They were always having 5k runs on post on the weekends. My Commander (a female) challenged all the females in the company to attend and finish one of the runs. Running has never been my strong point, but I didn’t want to be the only one left out. I finished last (but still under 30 minutes!) but it didn’t matter because I finished… And I got a shirt to show for it, lol… Definitely well worth it. Now I can say that I actually did something…

Back in the spring of 2004, when my children were toddlers, it rained every day at 4:00 in the afternoon. We got so tired of the rain, because it spoiled all of our outdoor activities. So one day, I just told them that if it was going to rain, we were going to take advantage of it. So I turned on the car and played my favorite CD (Jimmy Buffet-Margaritaville) and turned the volume all the way up and we danced for hours in the front yard. The kids enjoyed it so much that day, that we did it the next day and the next. They are a little bit older now, but every time it rains, they still ask if we can dance to Margaritaville in the rain. It’s memories like that, that will last a lifetime!!!
