Day 8!

Day 8  - Post your favorite deployment pic (a pic of see u laters, him coming home, or him deployed) and tell why it is your favorite

This picture is from when I left to go back to Michigan back in December.  Silly me completely forgot my camera when I went to MEPS the day that he shipped.  I am STILL very upset with myself.  I love it because every time I look at it I feel safe.  Let's face it what more could I ask for.   I will have a reunion picture of us though in just 27 more days!!!!!!!

Day 7!

Yes day 7 is a day late.  I know I'm slacking.  Yesterday was so hectic that I didn't have time to.   I woke up went shopping for things for a girls sleepover.  As I was shopping I was in such a great mood for I don't know what reason but I was.  I decided that I was going to buy Ross his new iPhone and send it to him as a surprise.  I went and spoke with the guys at AT&T and they reassured me that if bought his new phone his old one would still work as long as they didn't activate his SIM card.  So I went ahead and got him his new iPhone!!!

Well later that day I got a call from a weird number.  I didn't think anything of it and didn't answer because I was with a group of people.  It was Ross, they got phone privileges and guess what.... His phone wasn't working.  He called me from a pay phone.  Thank goodness I sent him with calling cards. Anyway I was LIVID!!!!   I hurried up and call AT&T and asked them what was going on.  As I was talking to him Ross had called his mom and she brought me the phone.  He was NOT happy.  But in the end we talked until the calling cards ran out.  By the time they ran out AT&T fixed it!!!  So yay for being able to talk to him even longer.

But they were able to call because orders were posted and as you can see I am headed to Kansas.... Still unsure of how I feel. I am however looking at it as an adventure.  Also, looking on the bright sides of things.  The hunting in Kansas is phenomenal.  :)

Day 7  - post a picture of a wonderful friend that you’ve made because of your s/o being in the military

This is actually Ross' best friend from high school.  Seeing as Ross is still in Basic I haven't met many people because he's in the military.  So instead I posted a picture of the person that helps me through things.  We have become very close.  I don't know what I would do with out him.  

Meet the new Dorothy!

I know I am behind and I will catch up tonight.  Really quick though.  I got a call from Ross yesterday!!! Side note: Had big time issues with his phone I'll explain later. He got his FDS!  I was excited that was until he told me we are heading to Ft Riley, KS.  I am in complete shock right now.  That wasn't even on our radar of places.  I'm still SHOCKED.

Ok I'll write again later and catch up but for now this girl is going to try and wrap her head around moving to Kansas.

Day 6!

Sorry this is a little late.  But after the day I had yesterday I had to go to bed before something else happened.  


It started out good. The mailman came extra early, and for those of you that have had a husband go through BCT you know what that mailman means to you.  After that it went down hill.  On monday I took my car to the mechanic to get a noise checked out.  I got the call yesterday, yulp going to cost $1000!!!  I do have to say one of the problems the mechanic said it was because who ever changed my breaks before didn't tighten it up.  Well Hello they were the ones that just did my breaks last month!!  But a girls gotta have her car....


Day 6  - post a picture of the base your man is at and tell 5 cool things about that base

I have yet to be to Fort Benning but I will try my best to think of 5 things so far.

1. They are doing amazing things turning my hubby into well rounded man.
2. His DS let his platoon call home at the end of only week 2!!  We have a friend that used to be a DS at Benning and when I told him this, after I got off the phone, he about had a heart attack he was so stunned.  He said to count my blessings because this NEVER happens.
3. We reserved cabins on the premiss to stay in for both the 36 hour pass and graduation.
4. It's only 6 hours from Orlando!!  Which is where I will be in 20 days!!!!!! And then I will be driving up from there.
5. Fort Benning has my HUBBY!!!!  How much cooler can they get? ;)
