Here we go again.

This week marks the two year anniversary of us moving to Texas, funny how this whole week I will be packing up all of our belongings, ready for when B moves in August.


I leave next week for Oklahoma, followed a week later by B who finally got his orders today to go for training near Boston (I'm jealous Boston is way cooler than Oklahoma).


Anyway I am trying to make the apartment nice for our pet/apartment sitter who will stay here for the three months that B is away. Mean while trying to pack a huge chunk of our things away, so B doesn't have to (you should see the way he packs :s)


He has been getting much more affectionate lately, I think it's finally hit him that we will be away from each other for the next 6 months, maybe more. Some time's I think I must be crazy to chose a path that leads me away from him for a period of time, but then I tell my self that crazy would be waking up at 50 and realising I never did anything for myself.

Anyway many a crazy, hectic thoughts are going through my mind right now. It doesn't help that I am rushing around trying to get everything done before the weekend.

I need to sleep now, my packing logic is absent at this time of the night so I am doing no good!

This news isn't very new, so it may not even qualify as news, but I guess it's new to you guys so here it goes!


I joined the Army.. back in October, it wasn't a very hard decision to make I've thought about it since I was about 14 and then life just happened. Although my dreams where to join the British Army, but since that isn't quite possible with my choice of husband, US Army it was, either way we are fighting the same war, and to serve is to serve right?


I will be tough being away from B and my boys for 6 months (and then some more depending where I get stationed) but it was the right time for me to do it, before we start a family and whilst B is preoccupied with university.

I leave in approx. 10 weeks and I am so excited, and slightly nervous, the nerves are mainly linked to the fitness aspects of it. Hence why I decided to hire a semi-personal trainer (semi-personal because there are other two girls in my small class). Today was my first day and she kicked my BOTTOM! She is awesome I am so excited for my next session.
