Dizzy's Ten Post Round-Up

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more A late edition of the Ten Post Round-Up...life has a curious way of keeping you from your scheduled plans (know what I mean?). 

With the five year anniversary of the Iraq invasion, I am spending more time than usual thinking about the enormous changes that have happened in my life due to the three Iraq deployments of SSG Dizzy.  Namely, I am having a recurrence of chest pains not felt since a vehicular incident that happened right before his first deployment.  I spend a lot of time doing the work of two people and since I am just one person, that means that other guy's stuff piles up until it can no longer be avoided, especially when I am in pain.

Of course, being an active blogger means that the news is hard to avoid, as well.  Let's see what Uncle Jay has on his mind, this week: Uncle Jay Explains the News - March 17, 2008
