counting down the days...

Actually, i can finally say in a few more days i will have my Husband back home with me :) The Navy has finally released his homecoming date! I am so excited, but i still have so much to do before he gets home!!! I've had a busy few days going back and forth to Norfolk to try and get things together for us to move there when he returns and what not!! So much to be excited for when he comes back. I've been putting together a homecoming present for him and i'm still not finished and i need to make a poster too and have to finalize plans with my "photographer" and her "assistant" lol which are actually two of my really good girlfriends one is an actual photogrpaher though but she didnt want to drive down here alone so we invited our other friend to come along!! It's going to be a good day!! I just kind of hope we find a place to live soon(and it would be awesome if it was before he came back, but i doubt it) lol, so then i can cancel the hotel we bought! we'll see...fingers are crossed for good news next week :) It's been storming everyday this week...i'm a bit tired of it now. lol My dog gets so stressed out and scared she has panic attacks! poor thing :( Well, I hope everyone had a good 4th of July weekend...i had a great time camping with my family & shooting off some fireworks with my cousins!! it was a good day! this weekend i will be busy preparing for homecoming & trying to visit as many friends as possible! for some reason everyone has decided to have parties tomorrow!(good grief) Hopefully the NEXT time i blog i can post a picture of my Husband home!!! :) :) Have a good weekend and a good week y'all! i'll be too busy too blog! till next time...

i'm no beauty queen, i'm just beautiful me

So at the beginning of this deployment i had made a deployment chain of all the days he was gone, and took off a link every night, and it pretty much wrapped around my WHOLE room, but im happy to say now that my walls are looking pretty bare ;) I even have a GREAT idea for all the links i took off, because i saved all of them. I’m making him a Welcome Home box and putting a bunch of stuff about Disney World in there since that’s where we are going for our Honeymoon, finally! Sooooo i’m decorating the whole box inside and outside with the links and writing something i LOVE about him and our relationship on each one :) I am so excited for him to do it…i’ve been working on it ALLL week, because i feel like it’s going to take me forever to finish…i’m not even half way finished yet and the box is pretty much covered!!! looks like i’ll be doing some over-lapping! :) I am just so excited about him finally coming home!!!! AHHH! i can barely contain myself! haha

Well, it’s finally Friday…another week almost done! Today i took the little girl i watch to Kings Dominion we had a good day, but next time we’re wearing our bathingsuits so when we get too hot we’re going to the water park!! Tomorrow is my Brother and My Sister in Law’s Wedding Party for all of the ones who couldn’t come to theirt OBX Wedding…Should be a good time! :) Sunday i will most likely go hang out with my Nephew’s since my mom will be babysitting them, because it’s my other brother and sister in law’s wedding anniversary…i think it’s 7 years? but Congratulations to them!!! :) Ohhh and today the rest of my homecoming outfit arrived!!! i am so excited :) :) and i absolutely can’t wait to wear it, because i know Adam will love it!!

Last week i booked the hotel we will be staying in for his first night back(since we don’t have a place to live yet and we want some alone time!) and our hotel is right on the beach and it has a Jacuzzi in our bedroom :) i have it for the whole weekend, but unfortunately i will be the only one staying in it the next night because Adam has duty the very next day he gets back…then the morning after we are checking out and we are coming up to visit his mom and sister and then to my parents house to visit so if anyone wants to come over to see him just get in touch with me and i will fill you in on the date :)

Next weekend i’ll be camping and i’m super excited about that :) I’m a busy bee till the man comes back home :) I am just SO ready to get to Disney World with him and just have a blast and be little kids again, since he has NEVER been before…i am so excited to get to share this experience with him :) :) Lot’s of stuff coming up and going on so i’m sure i’ll have tons of pictures and updates to post soon!

till next time…

Health Nazi

You know, what happened to good old fashioned exercising & eating healthy to lose weight? Now we have people doing 500 calories a day, supplements, & hormone injections....really? 500 Calories is just ridiculous all together and will not give you the nutrients you need. I have a friend whose doing this diet, and i personally just don't understand it. I know people much heavier than him/her who have done it the old fashioned way...they'd started eating healthy & started walking, running, and bicycleing everyday...yes it took longer for the weight to come off, but atleast it was in my honest opinion the healthier way to losing a signifcant amount of weight. No offense to anyone, but you can't go to the gym run 4 miles and then hit up McDonalds or Sweet Frog on your way home...your 4 miles at the Gym was just pretty much a waste of time, but, it's just funny because those are the types of people you see doing these kinds of diets, because they can't get their weight off...wellllll, no kidding. Did you really expect too? I just hope eventually people learn that all it takes to lose weight in a healthy way is proper eating and exercise.

home sweet home


Well, i am back from OBX! My brother got married this past saturday and it was so perfect :) beautiful day & a beautiful wedding! I've posted a picture in here of one of their Wedding pictures!! it was a good time and fun week, but i am exhausted! luckily i do not have to "work" today so i can still recuperate from the long week/weekend, now it's on to their Party at the end of June then a camping trip then it will be time to prepare for Adam to come home!! :) Adam and I have been looking at some places to live for when he gets back we're just trying to pick that perfect one, and i'm thinking of getting Adam and dog for a Welcome Home present as well, so we'll see about that. While we were gone my dog Rocky that i got when i was 10 passed away :( it was very sad...he was old, but we think it was either because it was too hot outside or when he got stuck in the fence last weekend he was more injured than we thought he was :( poor thing...but on a happier note the trailer for Breaking Dawn part 1 came out and i am sooo excited!! I really hope Adam is around November 18th, so we can go see it!!! :) :) It looks amazing! other than all of that, not much has been going on just going to enjoy my day off today...

Well not yet, but in 2 days i will :) Heading down to OBX on sunday afternoon with my brother & future sister in law for the whole week to celebrate their Wedding the following Saturday, June 4th :) I'm getting excited because it's almost JUNE and that means i kicked May's ass along with all the other months since the love has been gone. I need some sun to fix the silly tan lines i got while at Strawberry Hill last Saturday! haha Today i bought a new bathingsuit that i am so excited to wear! ;) Lot's of fun things coming up in June as well...Easton Corbin & Justin Moore will be at Innsbrook and i hope to be there :) Father's Day, My Brother & Sister in Law's Reception Party for the family & friends that couldn't come to OBX to see them get married, and My Mom's birthday at the end of June and then it will be JULY!!! another month down :) I'm getting excited and anxious for the end of this tunnel to get here! I just can not wait to give him a huge hug and a kiss and then we get to go away to Disney World for a whole week!!! Come on days/months hurry up and bring my man home :) (Sorry kind of cheesey, but i am just way too excited now!)

He Did It!!!

My Amazing Husband is now a 3rd Class!!! I am super excited for him...this was his 3rd crack at the test and i guess it's true 3rd time's the charm...the first time he took it he had zero sleep the night before and had not studied he instantly knew he bombed it. the 2nd time he missed it by 12 pts & he was so upset, and so this last time he definitely prepared double time for it and finally did it!! He's worked extremely hard to get here and i hope he continues to work hard and hopefully can do it again someday(if he decides to stay in) He was very excited and proud of himself and it totally relieved him...i can tell that this is going to put him in a GREAT mood for the rest of the deployment. :) I'm definitely a proud wife today!

This weekend is Kat & Cullen's wedding and then it's off the OBX for the week followed by my Brother's wedding next Saturday!! I'm SO excited for some beach time and some fun in the sun...our beach house has a pool, a bar, & a hot tub! :) it will be JUNE soon...time is just flying! I'm even more excited for my Husband to come home and we can go to Disney World he more than deserves this trip now! This past weekend was the Strawberry Hill races which i got BURNT to a crisp at, but it was a good time(for the most part) Afterwards, me and two of my girlfriends went to the Beach to hang out with some friends for my Bestie's Birthday we went out Sat night and were supposed to stay and spend the day on the beach Sunday, but then Sunday morning my Bestie's family called and told her, her Gpa had to go to the hospital and wasn't doing well...so our beach trip was cut short. We'll have more trips soon! I needed a lazy day anyways so that's exactly what i did yesterday...and it felt nice :)

Oh! this past Thursday i went and saw Eric Church in concert and THAT was an adventure in itself...people are SO incredibly rude. My cousin and I got to Eric Church early because wanted good seats so when we got in we got right up on the gate behind Gold Circle seating and sat down and got some drinks(bad idea) because of course by the time the concert was starting i had to potty and OF COURSE the porter jon's were all the way near the front gate of the place so we have to push through the crowd to get there, well on the way back i tried to get through and i was telling people "Excuse me! my seat is up there!" some people were nice enough to let me through, but some would try to block my way and one girls even tried to fight me and pushed me! i'm like "seriously?"...Lesson learned go to the potty WAY before the concert starts and don't drink during the concert so you don;t have to pee or just pay for Gold Circle so you don't have to push through the crowd. i'm going to remember that when i go see Justin Moore & Easton Corbin next month!

here comes the sun

Sorry it has been awhile, it has a been a very eventful week for me...we've had some family things going on, but all is mostly resolved and the sun is coming out :) Tomorrow i'm going to see Eric Church in concert and i'm SO excited! just wish Adam could be here for it, because Eric Church is one of his favorites! I've also been thinking of school & what i want to do with my life...and i've had so many different ideas, so i took a career personality test and my results were not surprising and im trying to narrow it down to the one i think i would be the most good at, and i think i want to try and go to school to be a Guidance Counselor. I've talked it over with my mom & Adam and they both agreed that i would be great at it, i mean i already counsel people i might as well get paid for it ;) this weekend i'm going to Strawberry Hill & then to the beach for my best friend's birthday(hope the rain stays away!), then next weekend is Kat & Cullen's wedding then it's off to the OBX for the week for my brother's wedding! The days keep flying by and they just keep getting busier(which is good!), because that means soon Adam will be home again & then we can finally go on our Honeymoon to Disney World. but other than that not much else has been going on...it's just been a bumpy week so far, but hopefully all things will come together eventually.

bragging (just a little)

So, i'm going to brag on myself and my husband for a few...I'm so proud of us for all the money we have been saving while he's away esp. since neither one of us know how to handle money very well & before we got married we were not good at saving money at all, the whole time we've been together neither one of us has had any money in our savings account and we were both pretty much living pay check to pay check, which sometimes sucked royally, but now i feel SO good that we are NOT living pay check to pay check, our bills get paid on time & we have extra & move some to savings. Moving back home during this deployment was a good idea esp. since we had no money saved up, now when he arrives back home we can move out again with NO problems of running ourselves too short. I am very happy my husband has not blown his paychecks while in ports, because to be honest that was something i was a bit worried about with him, because if he has access to it and it's there most likely he will spend it, but i am so proud of him for thinking of our future together and refraining from spending too much! he got to do the things he wanted to do, enjoyed his time in port, and had money left over for me to pay the bills and do some fun things for myself. I hope we can continue this when he comes home...i'm sure we will since we're in the right state of mind now and want to prepare for whatever our future brings!! I am a happy wife tonight :)

Lucky i'm in love with my best friend

So, I've had food poisoning for over 24 hours now...i'm feeling a little better now but last night was horrible!!! absolutely horrible. I emailed Adam and let him know that i wasn't feeling very well and told him why then at 1am my time my phone rang and it was Adam checking up on me telling me he just read my e-mail and went and found a phone ASAP to call me so he could try to help me feel better!!! It was so sweet of him and EXACTLY what i needed at that time!! I'm one lucky girl! even though he wasn't here to make me feel better just hearing his voice worked a little magic and i finally got to get a little sleep!! I called in sick & just rested all day...did some house hunting ;) and then went to see my new Baby Cousin, Davis :) he's so adorable!!!! Also, other good nes i am booking our trip to Disney World tomorrow!!!! whoo hoo...then a new countdown will begin ;) Adam has never been to Disney World let alone Florida so i am VERY excited that i get to experience this with him!!! I'm looking forward to the drive down there with him...music, windows down, & just us :) It's going to be an awesome trip!! Right now i'm eating some soup hoping it will settle my stomach a little and then i'm just going to read my book and relax for the rest of the evening! I hope all the wonderful Mother's had an awesome day yesterday!! and hopefully i'll feel better soon i've got too much stuff going on to deal with being sick right now. till next time... :)

Mother's Day :)

Happy Mother's Day to ALL the wonderful Mother's out there! esp MINE!! Today, got up early and went to church and ate lunch at my Mema's house...typical Mother's Day here! My brother has his Bachelor party today so him and my other brother and my dad all went to a baseball game. So i've decided to take my mom to the movies to see Water for Elephants :) this will be the 2nd time i've seen it!!! and im excited :) The days keep flying by...if you haven't noticed it is now MAY! :) I'm very excited to see May not too much longer till the Husband is home! I'm working on booking our trip to Disney World this week! SO excited! We were going to do a wedding ceremony, but since we haven't had any positive feedback from his side of the family really we've decided to just not even worry about it anymore. My parents have offered to pay for our trip to Disney World in exchange for the wedding ceremony that they were going to have to throw us! Which HEY paying for Disney is MORE than fine with me...i'd much rather have more money to save than pay for Disney :) Not much else going on...i've got a busy couple of weeks coming up!! but i'll try to update as much as i can! Sorry this one is so short just really not much going on :) till next time... ;)

But I know soon we'll be together, and i can't wait till then...

Well, hello blog world!!! sorry it's been awhile again i've been cheating on you with Tumblr ;) Well, it's EASTER here! So Happy Easter to Everyone(and if you don't celebrate Easter, i'm sorry) nothing much has been going on...STILL kicking this deployment's ass..the days just keep flying by & i hope they continue to do so. I am so excited for him to come home though i can barely take it anymore!! haha This week the month of April will be OVER and thank goodness because April has been such a busy month...May will be kind of BUSY but not as busy thank the Lord. May does has some exciting things though...Eric Church's concert, My future Sister in Law's bachelorette party that i am throwing for her, Strawberry Hill races(like a mini Kentucky Derby), My Friend's Kat & Cullen's Wedding then on Memorial Day i am OFF to the Outer Banks for the week for my Brother's Wedding the following Saturday on June 4th :) Lot's of things to keep me BUSY & MOVING through this deployment. This deployment has taught me so much & taught me to never take my Husband for granted...he is the best thing to ever happen to me & i fall more in love with him each day...my love for him was always strong, but now it's just beyond strong i can't even explain it. I can't wait for him to come home and have a wedding for our family & friends and go to Disney World for a whole week...He's never been so i am beyond excited to share this experience with him!! It's RACE TIME this weekend & i'm SO excited :) Race Day are my favorite times in the spring and the fall...i can always feel when it's coming and i get soooo excited. Since Hubby can't be here i'm bringing my bestie, Brittany, we're always a crazy twosome when we're together so it should be a BLAST! :) :) Well, i will try not to cheat so much and write more often ;) Hope you all have an awesome EASTER & the Easter Bunny is good to you all. till next time...
xoxoxo,

Never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved

Well Ya'll it's been awhile...let's see what has been happening...Well the country decided to go crazy when there was almost a government shutdown! The most people that went crazy i noticed were the Military Wives!! Me being a Military Wife myself I did not freak out one BIT about this whole Government Shutdown and them not paying the Military, a lot of these Military Wives were blaming Obama & making statuses about how can they stop Military Pay and yadda yadda...Well, let's get some things straight first of all...this Country seriously needs to stop blaming Obama for every little thing and sit down and take a Government class or a civics class or something!!! Obama had no control over what was happening this was ALL Congress(yes, Obama did make threats if they didn't come to an agreement, but of course he did!! wouldn't you if you wanted something done? yes) and also this whole Government Shutdown had NOTHING to do with the Military...the Military was NOT being targeted Obama and ALL Congressmen agreed that the Military deserved to be paid no matter what! this whole thing was about freaking Planned Parenthood THAT was what couldn't be agreed on and ALSO the one time the Government DID shutdown a BILL was passed to ensure the Military STILL GOT PAID! Of course, the government Shtudown was avoided and everything is A ok(right now) and i can't tell you enough how glad i am and how OVER IT i was. People were getting straight up ridiculous with their bashing of Obama. Other than that mess life has been fairly breezy :) Babe is in port and i hope having a little bit of fun...i've heard that the signal there is kinda crappy so i'm guessing no skype :( i woke up at 7:30am to be prepared because he told me to be ready today after 8am...well it's now 11:14am and have heard nothing :( So it's a bit disappointing that the signal sucks, but the only thing that matters is he tried to skype! :) but hopefully i get some emails and maybe a call later? ;) that would be nice!!! Well, Saturday i'm supposed to be in a Wedding, but that's just not happening because i am frankly over my cousin and how rude she is and how i don't even KNOW anything about where im supposed to be am i supposed to have my hair done what jewelry she wants us to wear...nothing! and it;s already Tuesday if i needed to make a hair appointment i'm a little late huh? So, obviously me being in her Wedding isn't that important to her anyways! but speaking of Weddings...Adam and I have decided to have one afterall :) He's the oldest Child & Grandchild and i didn't want to take that away from his Mom and Grandparents & of course my Mema has been asking me everytime she's seeen me when am i having my real wedding so she can watch me get married...So, i've come to the conclusion to try and throw one together when he comes home :) as long as i find out his leave date in time!!!! hopefully this month :) Not much has been going on though...just patiently waiting for his homecoming, doing school work, working, going to the gym, & hanging out with friends!! I hope to have another update again soon...can't believe we're almost at the downhill side of this deployment :) :) ready for it to be over and ready to have him back home!!! i'll update as soon as i can...till next time xoxo

a little annoyed

So, i'm a bit annoyed & pissed off right now. I went to a party tonight that one of the wives threw and i had invited one of my friends from home to go with me...when i asked her she was ALL about it...then the day before the party my friend texted me and said that they had just left the Dr's office and found out they had tonsilitis & would not be able to make it to the party...ok..completely understandable...i've been there, i've had tonsilitis strep and was miserable!!!! So, i invited someone else to come along which is fine...that girl rocks!! but, then i get home tonight and find out...my friend that was sick went to work today, went to make a pot, and went to someone else's house...Now, for somone thats SOOOOO sick and can't make it to a party ith me sure did do a hell of a lot tonight. So, i'm just annoyed that if she didn't want to go with me then why didn't she just say that??? i mean i know she was probably sick but, come on...don't go out the night you were supposed to come to a party with me if you're THAT sick.

A cold beer on a Friday Night, A pair of jeans that fit just right...

A cold beer is exactly what i need tonight...after the fabulous day i had(sike!) Well, it started out okay...I went and got the girl i watch like usual and today was a no gymnastics day so that means i have to stay till 5:30pm...which was not good today because i had tons of errands to run later...but, i sucked it up and stayed anyways! Well, her Grandma got there at about 5pm so i was like YES i can leave a little earlier than i thought...her Grandma parked in the driveway but, in a way that i THOUGHT i could still maneuver out of the driveway...hahah BOY was i wrong!!! So, i'm backing out and i think i'm doing a good job...i'm in a hurry and trying to avoid her car and the little girl standing in the yard....While i'm backing out as the girl i watch yells DITCH! yeah...that's where i found myself...in the ditch...and stuck!!! My wheel was right up against the concrete and it would not pull forward or reverse and i couldn't turn the wheel...fabulous...faboulous...faboulous. Not only am i embarrassed but, i'm also running even MORE late...and of course, the husband is gone & the dad is at work an hour away. So, i call my mom and she calls my brother and sister in law! i knew all i needed to do was put it in neutral and push...but, unfortunately i only had a grandma and a 10 year old to work with...no beuno! so, finally my brother and sister in law and uncle all arrive and we got my truck out!! of course, not before they took pictures and and asked me how in the world did i get myself stuck like that...what can i say? i'm a genius. Bad Luck follows me like it's my job. So, of course that took 2 hours and i didn't get home till about 7!!! But, finally my mom and i got to run our errands which took forever...and my mom took the wrong exit(she swears she didn't but, she did!) and spent too long in David's Bridal to order another Bridesmaid's dress(dear friends & family...stop getting married!!!!) Which going into David's Bridal is HELL enough...then to target & to martin's...and by 9:00pm i STILL had not eaten...all day to be exact so, just imagine the kind of mood i was in...I wanted to Noodles but, being 9pm they were closed so i settled for Chik fil a...which i barely tasted cause i scarfed it down! and, i decided to give up SODA for lent...so my caffeine withdrawl headaches have been a pain in the ass. but, now i'ts 12am and i just got out of the shower and i have to wrap my future SIL's bridal shower present(which is huuuuuge, btw) and hopefully go to sleep on time to enjoy those wonderful festivities tomorrow...let's hope i'm done babysitting early tomorrow because after today and tomorrow i'm going to need a cold one(or 2 or 3)
I also am in need of a pair of jeans that fight just right...no such thing when it comes to me...I have a pair of american eagle jeans size 2 and they fall off of me...but 1's are too tight!!! ugh...i don't get it :(
today is just not my day...
till next time xoxoxo

Thank you for being a friend...

I have realized recently that i have some of the BEST FRIENDS a girl could ask for :) They honestly do not know how much they truly mean to me, now most Military Wives/Girlfriends/Fiances say that they felt that their "Civilian" friends did not understand what they were/are going through. Well, i have to say that my real life friends have been WAY MORE supportive then some(not all) of the Military Ladies i've come in contact with. Now, i'm sure there are some awesome ladies i have yet to meet & i hope to meet some of them soon but, right now i am content with the friends that i have in my life & have been there for me through everything and just because they may not know EXACTLY what i'm going through they still try their hardest to understand...although i do have a few girls woh are my besties who have also been through the Military Relationship so they do know how i feel & they are awesome to go to and talk to when i'm feeling down about it.
So to these friends that have always been there for me and who have kept me happy & busy through these months so far!! i love you guys to death & don't know where i'd be without such GREAT friends to spend my time with...So, Brittany PIC, Laurie, Tiff, Kat, Kristie, Stephanie, Nikki & Brittany!! You guys have been amazing friends!!! Thank You for being that way & always being there for me!!! you guys ROCK!!!

When you "Assume" it makes an "ASS" out of "U" and "ME"

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people assume...and of course the title says it perfect of what happens when people assume too much.
I recently got asked "Why did i make such a big deal about not marrying for the Military when i did?"...umm...I married for the MILITARY?!? really?!? Thanks for sharing that one with me because, i had no idea that's what i did. For the record I was not making a big deal about marrying for the Military, i posted a status answering peoples questions about how i WAS NOT marrying for the Military & for a long time i did NOT want to do the Military thing and get married at the court house...but, things changed.
Yes, i did end up getting married at the court house. We had planned on a date to get married but, we were also betting he would be home around that time(Note to self: you can't plan anything in the Military, don't even get your hopes up at all, you will only end up disappointed) But, when we found out he'd be deploying and possibly going on underways around the original wedding date and then another possible deployment, this wedding was looking more and more like it was going to be either 2012 or 2013 before we'd be able to have the wedding and by 2013 i would be 25 almost 26...I want to start a family around that time not walking down the aisle.
Another thing that bugs me about that question is it's as if i just woke up one day and him and i looked at each other and said, hell why not? let's get married. Pssh, FALSE! He had proposed to me...We were getting married anyways...regardless of Military or No Military, we were STILL getting married. We were in the process of planning we had gone and looked at a Venue! Pssh, i didn't just get married because of the Military.
I got married because I wanted to be with him, I was ready to start our lives together & it didn't matter to me anymore if i even had a wedding as long as i was married to HIM, that's all i needed right there. Military or No Military...I know he's the one i would have ended up with. I tried again to possibly plan a wedding for the end of 2012 but, by then we'll be married for 2 years and it just didn't seem necessary anymore...I want to really live like a married couple...I hope in 5 or 10 years we can renew our vows for all our family and friends & hope they understand that the decision we made was what was best for us and what we wanted. I didn't need a a fancy wedding to make it perfect...All i needed was HIM and that's how it was, it was me, him, & the commissioner. But, don't assume i got married just because of the Military...the bottom line is we were getting married either way. We just happened to get married because, there was no way for sure we could plan a wedding for when we wanted too.
Questions like that make the wrong assumptions & i know this person was just being spiteful...but, i know a lot of other people were thinking the SAME thing. Please, My Husband is my best friend he's been there for me for YEARS. Who picked me up EVERYTIME my ex-boyfriend's made me cry, hurt me, cheated on me etc..? He did. He has been there and ALWAYS will be there for me...So, regardless what any of you think or assume this was going to happen whether it was October 29th 2010 or Aug 28th, 2011 or October 27th, 2012.

I'm really hoping that these negative posts come to a hault. I'm so over people assuming, spreading rumors, & just being assholes in general. Not that i really have to justify my actions to ANYONE but, it also helps to get things off my chest so i don't hold all these negative things in. I'm very thankful for my true friends & my very loving & awesome family...and of course my even more amazing husband, everyone of them keep me sane & i can't thank them enough! :) Hopefully, people will start concentrating on their own business instead of mine( a girl can only dream!)
Can't wait to have some positive posts coming up...till next time :)

sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me

Well, atleast that's how the saying goes & usually for me it's true. It takes a lot for someone to actually hurt my feelings and usually the only people that CAN hurt my feelings are people that i care about the most...and well i wouldn't really say this person hurt my feelings exactly but, they definately hit a nerve.
I was told tonight by someone that "they hope my marriage fails quickly"....wow! now, they said a lot of other really mean things to me but, this is the one that hit me right in the gut. You hope my marriage fails quickly? really?...what could i have EVER done that bad for someone to wish that upon me? Now, this person is not a friend of mine(anymore) They once were, i suppose about 4 or 5 years ago when i was dating an ex, let's just say...this person told me something about this certain ex that i didn't believe & chose the ex's side instead...okay, so yes i see that the person that told me was trying to be a friend i get that but, i was also 18 or 19 years old...young, naieve, and blinded by "love". Majority of girls my age back then would have reacted the same way...this person has been holding this grudge against me for that long. I apparently told the whole town what happened, FALSE! I told a few of my best friends at the time that i thought could be trusted, of course i was 18 or 19 i believed everyone back then. Those "friends" of course decided to twist my story a bunch of different ways to this person & instead of this person asking me they believed them. I've apologized a bunch of times to this person about not believing her then, but that was then and this is now i'm older now & have learned a great deal from my mistakes, I got out of that relationship(4-5 years ago!) & am with someone that makes me happier than i have ever been. I do not speak ill of ANY of the parties involved and never have & have always wished the best for every single one of them including the ex..people don't work out & that's the way it goes, we both found better for us & that should be all that matters. But, to wish that my marriage fails quickly is the one of the most horrible things you could say to someone.
And continuing to harrass me about this 4-5 years later is ridiculous & spreading rumors about me? calling me a slut? I've never been with anyone that was not my boyfriend. I've been in 4 "serious" relationships since i was 15(and now i'm 23) and 1 of them is now my husband. And, whatever "good friend" of mine that told this person that i admitted to YOU that i had an STD, you seriously need to check yourself again. I was cheated on by an ex, i got checked and I was clean since then i have had two boyfriends now 1 of them is my husband both have them have both been clean the whole time. So, whoever that so-called "good friend" of mine is you better hope i don't find out it was you spreading this stuff about me.
I am a very good person & i respect everyone i meet. I'm not sure why people always thought it was OK to attack me, bully me, or pick on me ever since i started middle school. I'm human and i have family & friends who do love and care about me and want the best for me & i can't ever help to think about how i'd feel if someone has been doing this to my kid for years no matter what their age & how would you feel? If your kid was being bullied for really no reason at all or if someone you loved & cared about was being attacked & harrassed? thats the kinds of things i think about before i ever talk about, talk down, pick on, harrass, attack, or bully anyone. I always tell myself..."Someone out there loves & cares about that person" I wish more people could think like that. I am a normally pretty cheerful person & i try to be there for everyone i can be. But, today i was a little hurt that someone could still talk like this to me after so long & not even knowing who i am anymore.

I wish my husband was here to make everything better because, i know he would. I am beyond lucky...no, not lucky BLESSED to have someone like him that loves me for who i am, cares about me, & wants nothing more than to protect me. Even though he is miles away our marriage is very strong & i don't need to see him everyday or hear from him everyday to know that he loves me more each day. I can feel his love from miles away & it's strong. I have no doubt in my mind that our marriage will continue to be strong & full of love when he gets home. :)

Always Remember, that people have feelings & everyone in this world is cared about and loved, Put yourself in other peoples shoes before you judge them, and remember rumors are just THAT rumors, unless they are told to you by the person in question, don't believe what others have to say about someone & always make your own decisions.
And of course, you don't have to like me or agree with me but, if anything please respect me.

When i was afraid of everything, I was never afraid to love you

Hey Ya'll :) Well, i'm just sitting here working on school work(blah) i'm almost finished with this one class i have one more test to go!! i am so over these basic learning classes already & i have SOOO many more to get through!! if you didn't know i'm going to school for Early Childhood Education...eek! not quite sure what i want to do with it yet but atleast it's something :) i think i want to either be a Child Psychologist or a Socail worker one day so eventually i will be getting my Master's in one of those. Long way to go though!!! So, no skype date happened :( the connection over there was horrible...but it's all good because i still go to hear from him and that is more than enough :) So far i am still hanging in there...staying a positive as i can :) i can't believe i've been holding up SO WELL!! Even though i miss the hell out of him i'm doing really well with this and as far as i can tell so is he!! We've got this!!! the days are flying by...soon it will be spring and then summer! i know once the warm weather hits i will be golden & i will continue to keep myself busy and positive! I am certainly going to kick this deployments ass that's for damn sure!

Tonight i went to the little girl i watch's(Katie) talent show :) She did AWESOME!!! She's a gymnast and that was her talent...she rocked it, for sure. Girl always talks about how she is going to be an olypmic medalist! i hope she does someday :) Tomorrow i am going with one of my best friends to the mall and i'm going to build a bear to build something for A!!! i have to make 'Sailor Bear' a wife! 'Sailor Bear' is the bear A made me a few christmases ago and he's my rock through all the underways and deployments!!! So, i figured time for me to send A something that reminds him of me to be his rock when i'm not there! and that will be sent in care package #2 :) i am super excited...I can't wait for A to finally come home he's told me he's bought me so much and i can't wait...he always said that my engagement ring now was just a "for right now" kind of ring and he wanted to buy me something bigger when he was gone...well he did! I would have never asked him to do that i LOVE my original engagement ring SO MUCH!!! but he will do what he wants! A also got another tattoo...which i wasn't as pleased about because i don't think the needs to be wasting his money on it but whatever because this just means it's MY turn to get the tattoo i've been wanting for awhile now! haha!

I have not gone to join the gym yet...i've just been so busy with trying to get this class done so i can start on my next one and just keep rolling with these tests and classes i want to hurry up and get my degree so i can get a grown-up job! i'm ready for it!!! but, i will join the gym as soon as i can...hopefully maybe possibly this weekend. I've got so much stuff coming up...it's going to be a crazy couple of months but it's going to make the time go by faster i hope!!! My deployment chain is getting smaller and smaller i LOVE it!!! :) I can;t believe it's already Feb 11th...i could have sworn yesterday was Feb 1st...where are my days going? staying positive & busy is deff the way to go during this time...i thought my nights and days would drag i'd be so miserable but nope...i'm kicking ass! avoiding all the negative people is deff the way to go also...i just don't want to surround myself with those people that complain all the time and constantly talk about how they want to leave their BF's...if you're so unhappy then just get out of this lifestyle...it's not for everyone and obviously you have so many doubts then you just need to walk away...if you think negatively then your situation will be a negative one...that's the way i see it.

I've also learned that age does not equal maturity...sometimes the people that you look up to as your elders are the most immature people ever. I can't even begin to tell you how disappointed i am in the way some "adults" deal with certain situations esp when someone a lot younger tries to do the right thing and have an adult conversation about it & you get nothing back in return. I've never seen an "adult" act so childish in my life...it is a complete disappointment to me & i can't even begin to explain how upset it makes me that they can't let things go and accept that things happened the way they did and it was for the best. but, i tried & that's it...now the ball is in their court. whatever happens now is up to them! but, enough about that...

I'm so glad i have my husband to be there for me and back me up 100%...people doubt him so much and i don't understand why. He is a very dependable strong man & i wish MORE people saw him that way...i met him when he was 16 and he has grown SO MUCH & matured so much. He always tells me..."Me and you...just us two" and "it's us against the world" and i always thought well what about everyone else? our families? our friends? Well, now i see why he says it. Because, no matter what him and i go through seperately and when we deal with people that don't support our decisions, at the end of the day IT IS just "me and you...just us two" and IT IS just "us against the world" and as long as we have each other we're golden...because only we know how WE feel and we support our decision and each other and no one can tell him or us otherwise...those words mean everything to me now. I am so thankful to have him in my life :)
& i can't wait to see what our future holds...
till next time...
xoxo, C

Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger...

Hey everyone! :) Hope everyone is doing well! I've been doing fabulous...still truckin' along! Well the Packers won the SUPER BOWL! i was super excited even though i didn't win any $$$ this year but, it's okay because the Steelers lost!!! YESSSS! Yesterday was my parents 30th Wedding Anniversary! We went to Olive Garden for dinner & it was yummy! I wish A could have been here with us but, he will be someday! :) i'm about to sit down here and watch the new episode of TEEN MOM tonight! yippy! i love all my shows that come on every week they make the weeks go by quicker! then i'll probably work on some school work, pop in a movie, & hit the sack! Hoping for skype date with A tomorrow...if he gets a good wi-fi connection somewhere over there! haha I'm going to have a busy couple of months coming up with baby showers, bridal showers, & weddings galore! plus throwing in a RACE weekend in there somewhere!

I still have not joined the gym yet...ugh ive been so unmotivated by the cold weather! but i need to get a membership asap & start tanning so i can look good for these weddings i have coming up!! i'm so tired of being pale! yuck! i think maybe i'll try and go tomorrow to sign up...or thursday! haha! i forgot i can't leave the computer much tomorrow so i can possibly catch the husband on skype!!! I wish he was comin home i'm ready for my presents he's been buying me while he's been gone!!! haha Time for me to start care package #2 for him :) I'm way excited to actually get a chance to decorate this one for him since i'll have time & extra money to do so!

I am really glad my husband tries to contact me...not to rub it into anyones face but some people aren't that lucky & i'm super glad my husband tries to email me or call me whenever he might get the chance...i've heard that there are some husbands on board who have been refusing to call their wives and they barely get any emails & some of these husbands have kids at home. you'd think they would want to call to atleast talk to their child...it's very sad but i'm lucky that my husband takes some time out of his day even if he is DEAD TIRED to atleast send me a "Hey baby just wanted to let you know i was thinking about you & i love you" that's all i need to get through most days :) So, i just want to say THANK YOU to my husband he really doesn't know how much i appreciate what he tries to do for me to keep me sane & happy here. I love him to pieces! :)

Well, that's all for tonight not much else going on! lot's to get done soon...& teen mom is on! till next time..
xoxo, C

Exciting! :) and Thursday is my awesome little nephew's 2nd birthday! I can't believe he's turning 2! they grow up so fast! Things have been well around here...still staying positive and enjoying what i do get to hear from A! I feel very lucky & blessed that i do get the communication i do with him :)

Staying positive has helped me get through this so far! i keep myself as busy as i can :) I do school work, I read, I hang out with friends & family, I hang out with an awesome 10 year old every afternoon, & I do anything i can to keep my mind busy! So far, everything i do has been working so, i'm going to keep it up! I know i can get through this and can't wait till i see the light at the end of the this tunnel! :)

I've been reading a book called "Water for Elephants" i heard it was really good but i'm having a hard time getting into it right now...it's supposed to be a movie too so i want to hurry up and finish it before it comes out! I also go Snooki's books on my kindle...haha for some reason i kind of wanted to read that train wreck :) and after Snooki's books i'm going to start reading the Chelsea Lately books! I need to start reading more though...every single day so i can get through all these books!

Super Bowl sunday is coming up!!! i can't wait...i just really hope the STEELERS do not win another superbowl, i really hope the Packers can pull this out :) I mean i really wish the Redskins were in the super bowl ;) haha but we all know that's next years...(hahahah) we'll see!

You had to go, I understand But you swore that you'd be back again And so I'm frozen in this town 'til summer comes around

Hello people :) So more days have passed & they've gotten harder...I still do not have my debit card from Navy Federal yet and it's really starting to piss me off. it's ridiculous that it's taken almost 3 months for me to recieve it! A and I have bills piling up that are due in Feb and i can't pay them without my debit card. it is straight ridiculous i've called numerous times and so has A and we've also BOTH sent them nasty emails...it's just so frustrating and it really sucks because A can't do much about it right now...ugh! i just don't even want to talk about it anymore :( blah!

My Dog, Layla, has been having seizures recently! i feel so bad for her...my dad saw it first and then i happened to see it one night and it scared the shit out of me! I don't like to see that stuff & i was in tears! :( my poor baby...i wish there as something i can do but honestly there isn't. I hope she's okay. We're probably going to have to take her to the Vet so she can get some tests run! But i've done some research and sometimes small dogs just have them & there is nothing wrong with them. Ugh! poor dogs! :(

I still get emails on a regular basis...& i also made his first care package! and it's all packed up and ready to ship tomorrow!! & i wish my Macbook wasn't broken so i could skype with him soon when he can. So, frustrating i bought this expensive computer with a webcam and this is the 3rd time it's been broken :( all i want to do is be able to Skype with my love...that's it! haha Might have to use Dad's computer to skype with him! we'll see...not much else has been going on lately! I would love to vent about a few things but i don't know who reads this haha and i don't want to step on anyone's toes right now ;) but if things don't get better i might just have to put it all out there even if they do read this on a regular basis...so be prepared. Well it's getting late so i'm going to hit the sack soon! Till next time...

back in action

Hey friends! sorry it's been awhile...i have been without a computer for a few weeks so i haven't had a chance to update :) Well the big day came and went...and surprisingly i only cried a little. I cried on the way home :( but since then i've had a lot of supportive friends keeping me busy!! they've been the BEST! My rough days have YET to come and i kidna hope they never come...but i'm thinking it hasn't sunk in quite yet, to me this just feels like an underway. Not much has been going on...i'm withput a debit card so it's making my life a bit difficult...i switched to A's bank back in umm let's see NOVEMBER and have yet to recieve my card...yup and it's the middle of January now...nice huh? can't pay the bills without that damn thing. I've called NUMEROUS times i have NO IDEA where they have been sending my debit cards...but it's deff not where i told them too. I got a pin # for one...but then no card after. kinda strange...and i've been checking the account...nothing funky going on there either so someone isn't STEALING them...i have no idea WHAT IS GOING ON! but if i don't get it asap...i think A and I will be taking our business else where ASAP!

I do miss A :( but i'm glad i've heard from him...that's all i need. I don't even care HOW i hear from him as long as i do...there are some peoplr that aren't as lucky but i'm glad mine wants to take the time to make sure he somehow communicates with me :) Oh, BTW...we officially told everyone we got married. Yup, we held it in as long as we could...some people were confused, some people were happy, some peopler were extremely supportive, & some people well...just didn't really seem to be happy or supportive or even say congrats. but, to THOSE people...we didn't do anything wrong. we're adults...A made a VERY adult decision and a MAN decision in my opinion to make sure if anything happened to him that I would be taken care of...I would have NEVER asked him to do that but it was something he wanted to do...he wanted to make sure that i'd be well taken care of if god forbid anything happened to him while he was gone...not many people would even think to consider that & i honestly think some people just do not understand...and i wish people would realize guess what? we were getting married ANYWAYS..which is why in JULY he asked me to marry him so i'm not sure where the big SHOCK came from? maybe because i didn't have a real wedding at first...but we are having a real wedding...but we couldn't do that till AFTER deployment. So to those people who aren't supportive & think it's stupid & we're too young & whatever else that could be going through those HEADS of yours...you're wrong. We're not too young & it's not stupid...& you're wrong for not supporting people who made an adult decision and who are truly happy with each other...if you knew anything about A and I and the things we've done for each other and been through together you'd think otherwise...& if you don't know i'd gladly fill you in on our story anytime you'd like :) just ask...but to warn you it's pretty long ;) it starts back to him being 16 :) didn't think we knew each other that long? you're wrong again :) :)

okay END RANT...whew...nice to finally get some of those words off my chest. they've been building up for quite sometime...but now i wrote it down and its out in open and anyone can do with them what they please... :) but well it's 1:31am and i have to wake up soon to get ready for my nephew's bday party at chuck e cheese :) whoo hoo. i'll update as soon as i can...till next time...

the days keep coming without fail.

i'm having a hard time accepting that it's already jan 7th...really? time is just going by WAY too fast & i wish there was a way i could make it stop :( Leave is over & now it's almost time for the thing i've been dreading most...A and i figured out that we've just got so much stress built up about me having to move back home and not being able to get a job to help contribute to the bills :( sucks...but i'll be able to get one now that i know i'll be staying back home while he's gone & of course we're both stressing out about him being gone for so long...it is coming so fast & i'm just not sure i'm ready for it yet...but ready or not here it comes....

I am going to try so hard to make these last days the BEST i can when he's home!! no more stressing out about things i can't control because they are going to happen regardless of the way i'm feel about it. Life is going to continue to turn without him & i've got to try and stay as positive as i can while he's gone!! A had to shave off all his scruffyness :( it made it very real that it was almost time to go back...uh oh! A and I wanna get tattoos before he leaves...we're hoping his friend can do it possibly sunday before but we'll see :) :) i'm kind of excited about it!!!

Well not much else to talk about...A went to be cause he's got to be at work tomorrow then we have to go find a storage unit to store all of our furniture while he's gone! we're hoping to buy a house when he comes back...i'm so excited for that & we'll be able to finally get a dog!!! yay! :) i'm really hoping these days continue to fly by so he'll be home as fast as he left! but i'll be keeping ya'll updated!!
till next time...
