Each Palace that Saddam Hussein had suited its own purpose. These are one of the palaces that I often see as I went to work each day. Each palace that was on Camp Victory had its own history. The Iraqi's that they allowed on the camp always love fishing in the lakes that Camp Victory had. There are many more pictures I would like to post on my blog to share with you all. We were never allowed to swim in the lakes even though the waters did look beautiful from a distance. The 4 years that I've been in Iraq living on Camp Victory, this is one of the camps' I have seen and studied the most history.

 This is called Bedrock, Yes just like the flintstone. They say that Saddam had this built for his Grandkids. I'm still Dum founded that I was on the holy land in Iraq Noah built the ark in Iraq. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq. Yep. Babel is the same as the ancient city of Babylon. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq. And yes GOD allowed me to see what more he had to offer and I'm so glad that I got to witness his world. To witness all this made me stronger than before I left home. My book is base on my life and the tour I took in Iraq there is more to come and I hope that you all enjoy my pictures the way I enjoyed my tour in Iraq

The memories of being in Iraq

Incoming.....Incoming.....Incoming, I will never forget those words as long as I live. The time that I spent over in Iraq was mind bottling. Meeting new people, eating Samosas..... which is my favorite Indian food. Now that I'm home I always stop by an Indian Grocery store to get a box of Samosas. My friends from India always laughed at me for the love of there food. I remembered when the Iraqi prisoners escaped we were not allowed outside by ourselves after dark.

 So many people lost their lives for the love of our country, along with our military men and women so did some of our Indian friends. You look at things like this and you can say that America is not alone. Even though the Europeans don't like Americans, but the US was paying them I could never figure out why they would always say that they were losing money. What really made them mad was the fact that the Americans were getting paid more than them. I think that the Indians should have boycotted even though they were getting paid a lot of money a cording to there country the pay they were getting I could get that working from home.

 It makes you wonder about the world and how they are living. My Indian friend Ganga Mohon would always tell me that the money we made over there they could go home and retire and live like a king. My dream trip is to go visit India to see my long distance friends that I once worked within Iraq.

Men......Why are you making this so hard.

 Being alone and working hard,I don't have time like i use to, but when I'm off from work i tend to stay at home relaxing not most of the time but all the time...lol.  I met this lady awhile back getting my nails done,she told me about Tagged so i checked it out. So now here i am joining this site, I didn't know it was so hard finding someone on the Internet. How do people do this, I'm to the point of just leaving it in God's hands. Savannah is not the place were you can meet someone Fairly descent. some of my friends Say's it's all about were your looking at.

 I heard on the radio about our famous church people are at each others throat's and doing the adultery thing so now it's the church whats next. How many spots in Savannah can there be on finding a good man. Most of the guys here within my Race isn't fully equipped to handle what i can bring to the table. So my mind have expand on not just my Race anymore. When i tell people that they look at me like I'm crazy. Am i?? Who knows, but I'm tired of being alone.

I met this guy on Tagged, we started talking the conversation was good. Later on that night into the early morning nature called. While i was up i decided on sending him a text,few minutes later he text back, me being surprise. I asked him what was he doing up so late, he said the restroom. So we're texting each other. I decided to call him i was getting a little tired of the texting, but when i called him he wouldn't answer the phone, a few seconds later he text me again.

 I then told him i just called you why wouldn't you answer my call this man said something to me i would rather not say on Internet. what I'm i to think if your texting some one and they don't answer your call. Come on women you know the first thing comes to our minds are they with someone, so i asked him. Yeah Lady's i did Life's to short one of my co-workers told me one night dating on the Internet it's all about dating more than one person so you can wen the bad ones out, until you narrow it down to that one person. Why cant i be the only one?

My Book

Wow....i can remember the days I spent in Iraq and the first day it became my home away from home. I've met so many people from all over the world even parts I never knew exits. My book has become my lifeline, something that my kids can look back on, and say wow mama did all of this for us. I've dreamed of going to India the day I met my new friends from that part of the world. Learning their language, learning about there culture and there dreams to come to America to see the land of the free. I'm proud to have to give my country and my fellow Military men and women my support. God allowed me to see so much, and what this world has to offer. I want the young Generation to know that you can do anything if you set your mind to your goals. Life is so beautiful never take it for granted, and life's to short you only live once live it to the fullest. I showed my kids you have to work hard at what you want. The Resilience Of A Black Women is a book of a strong woman struggling to give her kids the same life she had while she was growing up, her Mother and Dad died from Cancer. Leaving behind a lot of responsibility, taking life into her own hands. Leaving for Iraq seem like it was the only thing to do, providing not just for her kids, but her brother and sisters. My book is becoming harder and harder not only have I put my accomplishment on becoming this strong woman, but I've also had heartbreaking along the way. I hope you all like the book and that you learn a lot from reading The Resilience Of A Black Woman.
