Leaving the Body “Moo… moooooOoOo…” Everyone was shouting and packed in like cattle. Too many people sharing the same space with the same sense of humor; which certainly the Drill Sergeants (DS) hated because of they’ve heard it once they’ve heard it a thousand times. Three hundred recruits in the backside of an equine trailer, repurposed for troop carriers to time-based trainings – like the…

Did you hear it too? If all you can think about now is the Shinedown song – yeah, me too! I’ve been up now for about an hour because my stomach is upset. Sleeping is hard these days again. I know what I need to do, but it’s almost impossible to do sometimes. I need a routine, but I’m thrown off by my incessant ear worms and fear of failure for my family and those that I am reaching out to…

Remember is More Than Just Dinner… When we began FreedomSystem.org, the board foresaw the need for income to support programs. The original board initiated a bank account with $100 per family, covering initial expenses. This money was used to get a starter business card and pay for the website hosting fees.

Veteran’s have a way about them, we, love to…

Time to update! I have missed a lot of posting on here. But first of all, Happy Belated Thanksgiving, Veteran’s Day, and new school year! Oi.

Quick Update I have had surgery on my nose and soft palate and am still recovering. This…

What a week it has been! So shortly after my last post; was doing my best to keep up on working out and getting up early and all that… Well, then all of a sudden I was tired and lethargic and didn’t want to do anything. I was so tired. I figured it was heat exhaustion. Maybe something else. Not sure. It’s been a long week! What a week! I would take a nap after every work day last week and I…
