To all of you...

Assholes that feel the need to look at my husband like he's a horrible father/husband because he works over a thousand miles from home, I say this:

I hope your minimum wage job provides you the ability to buy your kids everything they need, buy your wife a new car, allow you to take time off of work for vacation with your family (somewhere other than your living room).
If you're not working at all, none of that applies to you.

What does apply to you is the fact that you won't take a job that makes excellent money because you refuse to sacrifice for the betterment of your family.

Don't look down your nose at a man willing to make a sacrifice for his family. Do you look at a soldier the same way? He makes a choice to be away from his family. (No I'm not saying my husband's job is as noble as that of a soldier so stop writing that comment/email) He wants better things for his family and chooses to do that job to ensure his family lives in a country with endless possibilities. (Another post for another day about how our soldiers are getting screwed)

Everyone (ok not everyone per say) makes sacrifices in their lives. Some choose to sacrifice for selfish reasons, others choose to sacrifice for selfless reasons.

I suppose what really pisses me off the most are the people wearing all the name brand clothes, expensive shoes, and driving the nice cars that live off the government. Or it could be the people who are getting evicted from their homes, but are spending their money (ill gotten and legit) on things other than food and shelter and complaining that they don't have enough.

Yeah, I complain about my husband, but he provides for his family in the best way he can.

Reality check, if you do stupid things, stupid things will happen!
