I lie beside him tonight lost in my own worries, fear, love, and sadness. We are facing yet another deployment and it's one neither of us were expecting due to the nature of the assignment and its duration. I find myself already slipping into that pre-… more »
It won't do any harm.
I'll tell you what.
I'll start every morning from now on with prayer for peace.
If it won't help, it won't do any harm.
An internet acquaintance 'said' this to me this morning, as we were chatting about how happy his wife and six month old daughter… more »
Welcome Home!
This week I had the phenomenal pleasure of shooting a homecoming for a friend of mine. Her husband was gone for 7 months and came home to a 10 1/2 week old daughter along with his doting wife. :adore
I hope to do many more of these, it was wonderful… more »
Where did I pack those?
I can't sleep. Despite the two 'natural' sleeping pills I've taken.
I was going back through some old blog posts and realized I'd packed away my trowel and mortar. Crap. I have to find those again soon. :-/
I wonder which box they're in. more »
The something else.
Remember the something else I mentioned a couple of posts ago? The one not at all appealing to either of us? Of course, that's what he got stuck with.
I won't go into detail for OPSEC/PERSEC sake, but it means a year deployment, plus a 3-4 month w… more »
DH checked in today.
Despite that he's checked in, he still has no definite unit, contrary to what he was told earlier this week.
:whistle Pick a unit, any unit ...
As of now he may not even be going to do what we thought his next job was; it may be something else whi… more »
Why I married a man with a Jeep ...
... and not one with a Mustang.
I'll leave the photos to speak for themselves. :giggle:
Yes, DH pulled the guy out of the sand. He's nice like that. ;) more »
The view from our bedroom
We're in a temporary beach rental while our house is being built. It's small and not ideal, but you just can't beat this view every evening. We'll just have to make due. ;)
The spotted one is thoroughly enjoying the location. The wrinkled… more »
Today
Today three strangers are packing up most of what we own. They have gotten the living room, dining room, and most of the kitchen done in 90 minutes. They're polite, courteous, and actually taking care of our stuff so far. Strange, but nice.
Today… more »
Wow, I suck.
So, as all of you (if you're even still reading) know, I kind of dropped off the blogosphere while we were in Army land. I was feeling pretty lonely and finding it difficult to make any good friends locally. To be brutally honest, I gained about 15 lbs… more »
More snow pictures
I broke out the real camera and took a few. Not much of it is sticking, but it sure is coming down! more »
Our send off
We're in the south. The deep south, for all intents and purposes.
This is what we woke up to this morning. :crazy:
Yesterday we had severe storms, to include flooding and tornadoes. Today, this. What a send off!
We're out of h… more »
