September is National Su***de Prevention month. As many of you know I have lost a couple of GREAT friends to su***de in the past couple years. Don't let this happen to you or your friends or family. Learn to recognize the warning signs and offer support. If you or someone you know is struggling with su***de, the number to call is 988. These three little numbers could save your or your loved ones life! Peace to all!💛

This infographic presents behaviors and feelings that may be warning signs that someone is thinking about su***de.

HAPPY VETERANS DAY FELLOW VETS AND followers...

Been a while since we've seen you. Hope your all HAPPY AND WELL!!

NEVER FORGET- THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE THERE, AND THERE'S ALWAYS SOMEONE WHO CARES!!! I Check these pages often and you can always PM me.

I know it seems we have not done much here, however, BIG THINGS ARE HAPPENING!!

READ ON FOR GOOD ADVENTURE!

I am an ARMY VET who was staitoned at YPG in '94-'96, and worked on the M1A1.
I am from Colorado. While in Yuma, I discovered SNOWBIRDING. I never knew what a SNOWBIRD was until living in Yuma. I didn't even know that was an option or a lifestyle. So when I heard about SNOWBIRDS, I decided then and there I was going to choose that lifestyle one day. I'M NOT ONE SO MUCH FOR LIVING IN SOCIAL BOXES. LOL

FAST FORWARD- 26 YEARS LATER- as some of you know, I met my husband NOW EX AT YPG during a joint forces training in 1995. We were testing MOP GEAR IN THE DESERT. LOL. We were even married at the YPG CHAPEL. I got my discharge, moved to Camp Pendleton with my Marine husband, moved back to my home in Colorado, popped out a couple kids, bought a sticks and bricks, and lived the American dream.... NOT HEHE. Unfortunately that marriage ended in 2016. We were married 21 years and have 2 beautiful kids who are now adults.

THIS FINALLY TAKES ME TO WHERE I AM TODAY.

I'm FINALLY LIVING MY DREAM. I DID IT- MY KIDS ARE RAISED AND I CAN SAVE SOME MONEY AND DO ME!🙏 WHEW

I built out my minivan camper and hit the road. I plan to road trip all around Arizona and Nevada this winter. I plan to hit the Quartzsite rock show in January and will be spending time in both Quartzsite and Yuma in January and February, and heading to Sedona for some healing, MINDFULNESS MEDITATION, and checking out Prescott... I HOPE ONE DAY TO CREATE A MINDFULNESS MEDITATION SANCTUARY ON MY COLORADO PROPERTY, FOR PEOPLE TO COME AND PARTICIPATE IN SOME FUN, RELAXING MEDITATION, Pet Therapy, AND other REALLY HELPFUL HEALING ACTIVITIES. IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME! I'M WELL IN MY WAY TO MY DREAM.

As many of you know,
SU***DE AWARENESS IS NEAR MY HEART AS I LOST MY BEST FRIEND TO SU***DE 2Y AGO. Needless to say i almost lost mine more than once as well. I CAN DEFINITELY RELATE TO THE TRAGIC FALL OUT THAT FOLLOWS THESE UNFORTUNATE EVENTS. ANYWAY, HOPE TO POST MORE ON SU***DE AWARENESS HERE IN THE FUTURE. BUT FOR NOW I HOPE EVERYONE KNOWS WE'RE AVAILABLE ANYTIME FOR AN EAR, QUESTIONS, RESOURCES, ETC..

Right now- while living and
traveling around, I'm SAVING MONEY, healing, taking business classes (doing online school), and working. So I'm super busy which is good for me.

ANYWAY, TIME IS TICKING AND LOTS TO BE DONE TO REACH THIS DREAM. I WISH YOU ALL WELL THIS VETERANS CELEBRATION,

THANK YOU TO OUR VETS AND FAMILIES THAT HAVE ALL SACRIFICED SO MUCH FOR US TO BE HERE! WE APPRECIATE YOU ALL SO MUCH!

💜✌️😂

Time to go.

‘Is it time to go sir?’
‘It is son.’
‘But who will miss me sir?’
‘You will be missed dearly son.’
‘My mother sir, will she miss me?’
‘Yes, she will son.’
‘My father sir, will he miss me?’
‘Yes, he will son.’
‘My darling Irene, my little Rosie, will she ever know me?’

‘She will, son. She will see you in the rising and the setting of the sun. She will see you in the rain and through the tears of those who love and have loved you.

Hear that bugle son? That’s for you, every year you will be missed but loved forever.’

‘But I’m afraid sir.’

‘Come now lad, it’s time to go, no need for fear. Take my hand, let’s walk together through this sea of red and onward, don’t look back now, onward lad, onward’

I know I am late in sharing/posting this, I have had my own personal issues around this topic and am focused on healing my own wounds around this tragic event that hit close to my heart a few short months ago. Please, if you or someone you know is struggling, I hope you know there are people, groups, organizations out there that can and will help you. All it takes is picking up the phone and asking for help. There are people who want to listen and who want to help. I'm no expert on this subject however, I am just learning myself but I can tell you it is happening everyday all around us, and it is sooo devastating to friends and family. So please, pay attention, be aware, and never be afraid to ask for help. I probably cannot solve your problem but I can listen and point out resources to help you in these dark times. Together, we can all survive and thrive!💜;;

September is Su***de Prevention and Awareness Month. September 7-13 is Su***de Prevention Week, and the World Health Organization has declared September 10th World Su***de Prevention Day--a worldwide initiative to spread awareness about su***de.
