put your big girl panties on

Seriously the most annoying thing someone can say to anyone! so this is something that keeps coming up with military families espically if a spouse decides to move home! honestly i moved home and it had nothing to do with not being able to be a big girl! i have done 2 deployments without going home but as a couple my husbnd and i felt moving home would be best! we wanted our daughter to get to know ou family and honestly living in hawaii it wasnt gonna happen... plus if i needed a break i didnt trust anyone anymore due to issues that came up... so yes i moved home and we are saving tons of money and i can get a job if i want and have help or get a break and leave my daughter with someone i trust!

i think people who use that statement of why someone shouldnt move home needs a kick! just because someone moves home doesnt mean i cant survive a deployment alone. yes i knew marrying my soldier he would deploy and i would be by myself! my daughter is not in school so this is the perfect time to be able to come home and let her get to met our famlies!

honestly i know it should not bug me but when other military wives say it it even pisses me off more! yes i am having problems at home but we (my parents and i) had a conversation with understanding before i came home but things during the summer changed and my daughters schedule keeps getting messed up so ya arguements start and i wonder did i make a mistake?!?! obviously moving back to my family and friends was right for me but maybe not my parents house i dont know almost time for a road trip and it cant come soon enough!

ok now that is off my chest time to wait for the hubby to call (since its been almost 4 days) and get this money to pee on the potty!

might a long one

ok so you have been warned i have been gone for a few days mostly just trying to stay busy and havent really been on the computer (including facebook!) for more then a few minutes to check email and what not...

ok so finally after 8 days heard from the hubby! he is ok for the most part, basically just pushing any emotions down so he wont have to think about it and can do his job, i just hope he deals with it and it doesnt come out at a bad time! i found out he was there when the medic died! he had one of his soldiers get hurt and is now coming home (i knew he got hurt cause his dumbass posted it)! seriously soldiers blow my mind sometimes!! also another medic he is friends wih got hurt and today got hurt again, nothing major just some "bling" as he referred to it! so now my husband is even more short on guys down to 5 now!! how is this safe??!? we found out 3 died in that weekend one being a Lt. very heartbreaking cause his wife is deployed with him and literally had just waved bye to him (sad story made me cry)...

4th of july weekend, a couple of friends of mine and my daughter went up to the carnival and enjoyed some rides (ok 1 ride) since she is small and cant go on by herself but she loved the cairasol (sp?) she didnt want to get off!! then i let her fun around and play in the grass and dance to the band... my friend let her play one of the games, you pick a duck and win a prize no matter what duck you pick, she got a sliding noise toy (no horn here- i am a smart parent!)... then we headed to the fireworks and enjoyed a mister lemon! oh how i missed you mister lemon with a pretzel!! yummy just the thought and my monkey had her first try and loved it too!! the fireworks were awesome and monkey danced around and was in complete ahhhh of them! seriously during the finally she covered her mouth like oh my god!! so cute :) then the next day we just chilled at home, monkey went to church with my parents and we hung outside in her kiddie pool and of course skyped with daddy :) on the actual 4th we went to my friend house and did a mini bbq!! (mini cause it was just the 3 of us, which honestly was fun and i got my potato salade fix!) then we headed off to another set of fireworks... these ones were earlier and louder! poor monkey didnt like them and put her blanket over her head and covered her ears :( not sure if the hubby will want to go next year espically after this dpeloyment!? but hopefully we will be in bragg so we can drive up to va and go to my friends annual bbq that we missed the past few years (only been to the 1st one!) but its a blast and i get to see my friends who love me for me!

yesterday went to the chiropracter who was mad at me for not calling him the day my jaw locked, like no eatting barely talking from the stress of the unknown! so he cracked me and fixed my jar and back and i am feeling alot better!!

today i went to the dentist to see about braces... basically i have an overbite that i am not happy with.. i tried invalsign but it only can do so much :( so i had a few choices- remove teeth to get rid of the over bite, braces on top and bottom but no guarntee it will actually be perfect because i am an adult, major surgery, or just put them on the top and straighten my teeth and just deal with the overbite... thinking about the last choice but its almost $3000 so gotta see what the hubby thinks...

i will be going on a mini vacation soon, monkeys bithday is soon terrible twos here we come! and i may have ajob 3rd shift!! i am kinda of excited about the job i just want extra money to pay of bills quicker and maybe even have alittle more money put away... i think once we get taxes again (yes i think this far ahead) it will be used to pay off student loans (dont use sallie mae u will never pay themoff even if u pay more then the minium!) and our 2 cars/trucks should be paid off by next year too :) so i am ok with this deployment bills are disappearing and that is about the only good thing!

i miss the hubby so much and yesterday when i asked what he wanted he said me which i didnt get at first then it finally hit me and i wanted to cry (a good cry)!! he sometimes says and does the nicest things it makes me love him more!

well its almost monkeys bed time and i know i am probably boring some of you.. honestly my life is not all exciting and drama... sadly i advoid what i can and is a major reason i moved home, plus saving money, and so our daughter can get to know our family! so maybe i will write more later or in a couple days, maybe something exciting will happen! oh ya got new tires today my dad thinks i overpaid but the guy said they will last longer then my other ones plus are better in the snow! so who knows
