Since he has come home...

Life has been great. I have been a bit busy and we both got sick at one point but things are going great. I love being so close to him. Sometimes when I wake up at night, I have to touch him just to make sure that he is really there. We are praying for orders really soon. I would love to have him home with me for longer than a few months. ((keep your fingers crossed))
School and work are going well. I have been rather busy with school. I am taking some rather tough classes that require a lot of work.
Valentines Day was our first one together. It was amazing. We went to Amelia Island. Our usual getaway. We stayed at our fav hotel and relaxed. On V-day we went to a Dinner show. It was a jazz band. They were amazing. We had a great time.
We are hoping to return for one more weekend before it gets too hot. Haha, odd I know. It is the beach. We usually don't go there to go to the ocean though. We go to relax, to go to the historic part of town and eat a great meal at our fav Itallian place, Pompaos and shop around the area.
It is one of places where we get to feel like a normal couple. Where him being in the AF doesnt matter, where Iraq is so far out of our minds...we need more places like that!
He returns to work next week. It is really going to stink then, because we will have even less time together. I can't wait to get out of this place.

Home stretch

HE WILL BE HOME IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS!!!!!!
This deployment has really flown by!!!
I am so happy that he will be home safe with me again. Hopefully for longer than a few months.
I think that after Xmas we are both hoping for orders soon.

I have acomplished a LOT this deployment.
I have almost met all of my goals
I spent time with my friends and family (in the USA and in Europe)
I have unpacked my house, unfortunatly looks like we might be moving AGAIN!! At least I wont have to do it alone.
I have been training really hard in Tkd and my form is looking better everyday.
I have been going to the gym every weekday. We will see how it goes once school starts back.
I have lost over 15 lbs total.
I have made a ton of new friends.
I survived this deployment with only a mild amount of insanity.

Great song

The song "Come On Get Higher" by Matt Nathanson is stuck in my head. It is such a great song. The lyrics are just amazing.

"I miss the sound of your voice And I miss the rush of your skin And I miss the still of the silence As you breathe out and I breathe in If I could walk on water If I could tell you what's next I'd make you believe I'd make you forget So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love I miss the sound of your voice The loudest thing in my head And I ache to remember All the violent, sweet, perfect words that you said If I could walk on water If I could tell you what's next I'd make you believe I'd make you forget So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in loveI miss the pull of your heart I taste the sparks on your tongue I see angels and devils and God, when you come on Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Singin' sha la la la Singin' sha la la la la So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me, drown me in love So wrong, So wrong So wrong, So right So come on, get higher So come on and get higher' Cause everything works, love Everything works in your arms."



There is so much going on. With work and my family. I really feel kind of lost. I have heard the same advice from plenty of people that I know they are probably right. I just can't seem to find the voice to do it. I guess that I am just not ready. I always find myself in these situations.

Too long..too late!

It has been a while since I have updated this. I always seem to forget about it.
It is 2009!! Hopefully this will be a great year. A year filled with changes and new beginnings.
This deployment is almost over FINALLY!!!! I am so glad. It has been emotionally trying for both of us. It will be great to have him home with me again. Out of 16 months of marriage we have only had a little over 4 months together.

There is so much going on now. Classes start on Monday, work is going in full swing and I am trying to get ready for homecoming. I was considering painting my kitchen and maybe my bedroom too. I have decided against it. I am not sure if we are even going to be staying here. As much as I would love to remain close to my family and friends I think that if another deployment comes up quickly then Mike will freak out...not to mention me.
We have decided to redo his dream sheat. That way we have a chance to get out of here.
I honestly think that we should travel while we can. It will be an adventure.

Work is busy. There is a lot going on. I am not happy with some of it and I need to make some serious decisions about it. It will happen when the time is right.

My weightloss is going good. I have lost a bit of weight and have joined The biggest loser for the board I am on. I am hoping to get into better shape.

That is it for now. I am going to try to get some sleep...dang migranes :-(

Our life plan.

Is there really such a thing? You can plan on something...down to the last detail but there is no way to ensure that it is going to play out that way. Especially in our life. I guess that it is just a way to fool ourselves into believing that there is some stablility. Just a comfort factor.
We have agreed on this plan that is good for both of us. I think that it is a way for both of us to acomplish our goals and still have something to work toward together.
(Also the life plan satisfies my compulsion to make lists for everything...haha)
So here it goes.

2009
Return to school (Jan)
Homecoming
Europe WITH Mike
Wedding Ceremony before July.
Deploy again in Fall.

2010-2011 **Approx times**
Graduate (Spring)
TTC

I know this is kind of vague. But it leaves room for improvement or surprises.
Hopefully it will work out like that, to our advantage.

**On another note. I adore having Heather here. She is a great friend and roomie. I don't want her to leave here, yet again another perk of the AF. I know that we will all be leaving here within the next few years. It is just reality, I prefer denile. We will all stay here, have kids together, raise them together...yeah right. Nice dream!!!
