FRG

so we had a company frg meeting... acs and legal were there very helpful!! got tons of questions answered and a few questions still need answering but thankfully there is a deployment expo next week...

kinda nice to actually get info beyond and email (which just makes u have questions) and hubby giving u info but half assly (i love him but boy does he suck at telling me stuff)!!

so we have our poa's for me, next we have to get them for our daughter for our parents (yup craziness never ever thought about that one)... found out abut a blue star card which i wont get since i am leaving and it wont do anythign for me off island...

still need to do: his truck insurance switched to just storage (never knew that very excited about $40 a month rather then $200 or so)
call all our credit cards (change addresses and make sure then know who i am)
let banks know he is deploying (very important if u dont want it shut off)
figure out if movers will move our shit into a storage unit back home (best words ever home)


so block leave then deployment! bring it army i am ready!!

Deployment

a word that makes tons of emotions come up for anyone and everyone... and since i will be starting a 3rd one very soon its something that i continue hearing and seeing and feeling...

so there is a little stress around my home, making sure we have all the right paperwork, the dog is ready to be sent, and that we know or atleast have an idea of what to expect since we have a toddler now its no longer just me and my soldier to worry about...

this deployment is a little different... for the first time they are recommending having pass ports, which just the thought makes me want to puke! also poas for family members for our child another thing never have to think or deal with but also not as a sick feeling!! then since we are erding us home with our stuff (since sf training will start after this deployment) that has brought up tons of questions and stress.. now of these things make marriage easier just add a little more stress and a few arguements since i ask the same questions over and over...

but i am ready its weird to say or think that but i am.. i am ready to move in with my parents be near friends and just get this started... i am ready to say good bye and deal with a toddler who is not going to happy her daddy is gone but will get to met and spend tons of time with family! (she has only met both of our families once at 6 months and besides the computer doesnt really know who they are)! i saw the orders (since we needed them for op love photos (which went awesome recommend it to anyone and everyone!) that was kinda a puke moment! but since then i have come to just getting stuff in order and preparing and now i am ready so lets go! lets start it get me off this hell that everyone thinks and paradise and go!
