We have really been affected over the situation! The Hubby and sons went and said it was not something I could handle.I will share why with you one day!<br />Blessings, Love Roxy<br />Thanks for adding my blog to your sidebar (smile) xoxoliving from glory to gloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123718369605106023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-49550717464262558852015-02-16T05:28:26.090-08:002015-02-16T05:28:26.090-08:00We don't go to the theater very often but I ma...We don't go to the theater very often but I may see if my hubby wants to see this one. I'm sure he will. I wasn't born in this country but I feel blessed every single day to live here and that my kids were born and raised here. We do forget how lucky we are sometimes and how what we have comes at a huge price for our men and women serving over there.<br /><br />I do think it's a good thing that PTSD is so acknowledged these days as opposed to when the WWII vets came home, it wasn't even discussed back then. So we've made some progress!<br /><br />Lovely pics of your cozy home Debbie:)Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14871388473674516955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-4501975928003941462015-02-16T04:23:08.172-08:002015-02-16T04:23:08.172-08:00My daughter and her hubby tried to go see that mov...My daughter and her hubby tried to go see that movie on Friday but there was an accident on the highway that held them up so that they missed the beginning of the movie so they decided to wait for another time. She still plans on trying to see it. Our brave men and women are to be applauded. And yes, it is wonderful to have a cozy warm home to come home too. Always.

I was not able to see it when they went, but being in Texas, I have watched the news coverage on the trial going on in his death. He served our country with honor devoted to keeping us free. Free to have a warm home to live in and feel safe. <br />Your photos are lovely and I am always so inspired by your decor.<br />Thank you for stopping by. Hope you had a nice Valentine's Day.<br />We attended a very sad memorial service for a 34 year old neighbor girl who was killed by a drunk driver. It was a heavy heartfelt day.<br />Have a blessed week.<br />Hugs, CMCelestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-43017926398111361712015-02-15T11:52:44.797-08:002015-02-15T11:52:44.797-08:00I'm pretty sure I won't be able to see thi...I'm pretty sure I won't be able to see this movie because of members of my family serving right now. I have two nephews in the military now and know that much of what they have seen and experienced is beyond words. My brother has been in Afghanistan on and off for about four years as a flight trainer. He never ever talks about his experiences in the Army. <br />I loved the beautiful photos you shared of the lovely warm home your husband loves so much Debbie.<br />sending love...Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283259375743586344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-62126403322650570302015-02-15T11:36:50.052-08:002015-02-15T11:36:50.052-08:00Debbie, My daughter Karen is one who wants to see ...Debbie, My daughter Karen is one who wants to see a movie as soon as it comes out. She saw this movie, she only said it was good....usually she will almost give us a frame by frame description. No this movie..she just has not said much about it. I am glad you and your husband have a warm home to come to....where you know you are safe and loved.

I need to wait until it's on-demand for I know it will deeply and emotionally reach inside my soul and make me think and perhaps never forget. Yes, we all could use a dose of reality to the harshness and bitterness, loss of life and the loss psychological well being in war. We owe a debt of gratitude to our men and woman who serve. <br />Your beautiful home is always your haven for happiness and you reaching into your heart to process "American Sniper" and learn from it is admirable. We should all learn from war ... I lost my cousin Fred in war... War is truly Hell.<br />Sending love,<br />Vera<br />Row homes and Cobblestoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01643916045622529275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-10773419895817841632015-02-15T10:43:31.148-08:002015-02-15T10:43:31.148-08:00Oh Debbie, my daughter and I want to see it, we ar...Oh Debbie, my daughter and I want to see it, we are so involved with the worlds lack of attention to what is real, our real men fighting for our country.

My grandfather was good Friends with Clint Eastwood, form all the movie picture studio work, and I frequently ran into him when I lived in the Bay Area of Northern Ca. and would dine at his resturaunt the Hogs Breath and walk the Carmel beach.
