ALONE TIME

Ok so 4 weeks now of Alone time, jay off to Basic and Im left to manage household issues dealing with a teenage daughter alone. So far so good, I dont cry like I thought i would, I basically stay busy, but unfortunately, I dont sleep anymore! Oh how I miss sleep! Plus i think I am keeping the post office in business, everyday I rush home to see if I got anymore letters. If I dont, I pout! I try to send letters to him at least every other day, I have learned something about myself; I am not a letter writer! I have to type or my brain will not function properly! jason says he prefers handwritten letters but I am sorry, but beggars cant be choosy! I have written some handwritten ones but not many. I am trying to learn this Army Wife stuff, but it is so boring to read the documents and stuff! One big great yawn fest and all the acronyms! BST, etc etc I cant even think of them at moment,  Being alone isnt so bad, although I am going to tackle my husband when I see him, I miss hugs and kisses on the forehead most of all. 

Questions??

WOW, who knew there was so much to learn about becoming an Army wife. The more I learn the more questions I have, but Im just going to take it day by day and learn as I go. I know that ultimately God is in control. I worry the most about Haley, I so hope she likes her new school next year and fits in. Her happiness means the world to me. Raising a child with Asperger's is hard and so hard to explain to others. I think a new way of life is going to be good for all of us. We are ready and I know that together we can do anything. Jay is my best friend and soul mate and an amazing father to our daughters, I know he is going to be a wonderful soldier as well <3

New Life

Ok so its official, I am an Army Wife! Jay leaves February 20th to Ft. Jackson, I am scared, excited, nervous , glad, confused, etc! I really dont know how to feel about all this. It is very overwhelming, I didnt marry Army so this is kind of new for me. Not really sure what to expect or if we really made the right decision. I do know one thing and that is I support Jay 100% and will stand by his side and stay positive all the way. If anyone out there has advice or knows what I am in for please let let me know.

ok so Im now on here with this new blog and I realize I never post anything! Swear Im going to do better! here is a pic of me and My absolutely great hubby and I on our honeymoon for those of you who emailed me to ask to finally post a pic haha!!kissses and love!

Very Upset

Seems like no matter what I do it is wrong!!Im so sick of Jay making me out to be a bad guy. he puts words in my mouth and says Im  in the wrong! AARGHGHGGHGHGHG

My Haley BUGG

Learned a lot about my daughter today... wish she would confide in me more. I try so hard to be her friend as well as mom. WIsh she would let me in more. Im not going to get mad for the little things I just want to protect her and love her. i know how its like and I know I can help her. She is my world and i would do anything for her.

Almost Christmas

Well its almost Christmastime again and Im broke again!!! When will I ever learn to budget my money? Having caviar taste on a hot dog budget is not a good thing! Oh well, thank God I have such a wonderful mother. Although I hate going to her for help! And I shouldnt have to, I am a college graduate, I have a good job but teachers get paid barely enough to get by which is a shame since we have so much responsibility and keep getting more required of us! But dont get me on my soapbox!! I am grateful though to have a job and to be able to do what I do. I teach some pretty amazing kids even though somedays I wanna crawl under the covers and stay forever. But those days are few and far between, mainly thanks to my great hubby, wonderful friends and beautiful daughter.

Speaking of Haley, she has changed so much. She has def turned into her own person. She hates pink, wants a skateboard and draws skulls. Not what I pictured my little girl doing but I wouldnt change her for anything! Shes such a fabulous person. She has the best heart. She has absolutely broke me however with things she asked for for Christmas, everything red of course~!
