SO SO SO....

SO I HAVE BEEN SO MEAN TO JEFF LATELY IM NOT CURRENTLY SURE WHY. I THINK IM JUST INSECURE.. I HEAR ALL THESE THINGS AND HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT MY HUSBAND IS THE ONE THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN EVERY OTHER PERSON IN THE ARMY. I HAVE BEEN SO STRESSED WITH WORK ALOT TO DO AND NOT ENOUGH TIME TO DO IT . PLUS ALOT OF DETAILS PRIOR TO ME LEAVING FOR THE BIG ISLAND. PRAISE GOD I DONT HAVE TO PUT PRINCE IN THE KENNEL HE WILL BE STAYING WITH SOMEONE I WORK WITH AND I WILL PAY HER BUT SHE WOULD NEVER ASK ME TO.. SO I KNOW THAT HE WILL SEMI GET THE ATTENTION THAT HE NEEDS. ANYWAYS I AM DOING GOOD JUST GETTING LONELY. I DONT HAVE ANY FRIENDS HERE AND IF YOUR A GIRL YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOMEONE THERE. SO NEWAYS I WILL STOP RAMBLING .. I LOVE YALL.

I LOVE HIM

Quick Update

OK OK WELL IM A HUGE BLOGGER SLACKER. I DONT CURRENTLY KNOW Y I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING IT. I GUESS IVE WORKED ALOT.. OH WELL IM NOT GOING TO MAKE EXCUSES THERE ISN'T AN EXCUSE FOR ME NOT TO KEEP MY FRIENDS UP TO DATE WITH LIFE. SO HERE GOES. WELL JEFF AND ARE DOING OK. WE HAVE BEEN HAVING UPS AND DOWNS RECENTLY. I GUESS ITS THE SEPARATION THAT IS STARTING TO GET TO BOTH OF US. HOWEVER, WE ACTUALLY ARE TALKING THROUGH OUR ISSUES AND IT HELPS ALOT. THOSE OF YOU THAT REALLY KNOW JEFF AND I KNOW THAT WE HAVE STRUGGLED BECAUSE OF COMMUNICATION WHICH SUCKS HOWEVER WE ARE GROWING CLOSER TO EACH OTHER EVERY DAY AND IM SO APPRECIATIVE AND THANKFUL. I COULDNT ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE. I COULD BUT IM THANKFUL FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING. JEFF IS DOING GREAT IN CLASS HES HARD ON HIMSELF IF HE DOESNT MAKE A 100. BUT HE ALWAYS MAKES A 90. WE ARE LOOKING REALLY AT GETTING OUT OF THE ARMY AND MOVING BACK TO TEXAS WE HAVE 3 YEARS LEFT. THIS ALSO HAS ALOT TO DO WITH WHO MAKES PRESIDENT AND ALL THAT GOOD STUFF. BUT JEFF HAS BEEN MENTIONING THE "BABY" WORD AND ALL OF YOU KNOW IM STOKED ABOUT THAT.. SO I HAVE STOPPED TAKING BIRTH CONTROL IF WE GET PREGNANT WE GET PREGNANT. I AM GOING TO SEE HIM IN APRIL THE 27-4 OF MAY. IM SO EXCITED I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIM FOR A WEEK STRAIGHT. I TELL YOU THIS IT IS SO HARD VERY HARD TO BE AWAY FROM THE PERSON THAT YOU LOVE MOST IN LIFE.SO HERES THE NEWS IF JEFF COMES TO 3RD BRIGADE WE WILL BE LEAVING IN NOV FOR IRAQ IF HE COMES TO FINANCE LOOKS LIKE WE ARE LEAVING IN JAN TO JUNE TIME FRAME.. WE ARE GOING TO TRY TO GET PREGNANT BUT AT THE SAME TIME I DONT WANT TO BE ALONE BY MYSELF IN HAWAII PREGNANT WITH NO ONE BESIDES PRINCE. SO THE MONTH OF APRIL I ASK FOR YOUR PRAYERS I WILL BE TRAVELING TO THE BIG ISLAND FOR TRAINING. IT IS FOR 10 DAYS I COME BACK THEN IM OFF TO GEORGIA THEN I GET BACK AND IM OFF TO THE FIELD I FEEL BAD FOR PRINCE BECAUSE HE WILL IN BOARDING I SO HOPE THAT HE DOESNT THINK HES LEFT THERE FOR GOOD. I FEEL TERRIBLE AND LIKE IM A BAD MOM FOR HAVING OT PUT HIM IN THE KENNEL HOWEVER HE GETS TO HAVE PLAYDATES AND ALL THAT GOOD STUFF. SO WE ARE PRAYING THAT HE WILL GET ALONG WITH BRUISER MY AUNT AND UNCLES DOG. SO IF WE DO HAVE TO LEAVE FOR IRAQ HE HAS A HOME FOR A YEAR THEN HE WILL COME BACK TO US. SO WE HAVE DECIDED THAT THE SEPARATIONS FOR PRINCE WOULD BE SIMILAR TO IF WE HAD CHILDREN I CAN'T DO THAT.SO LIFE IS GOOD I START SCHOOL ON THE 7TH THE ONLY BAD THING IS THAT I CANT GET ON THE BLACKBOARD TO DO MY HOME WORK.. SO IM HAPPY JUST WAITING ON TO BE FINISHED. SO GOD BLESS EVERYONE WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU..

I LOVE HIM

A Small Update...

So I went to a friend from highschools lil boys birthday party. It has been so long since we have seen each other. It was so great to catch up with each other.. So Ive been getting sunburnt alot lately. Work is crazy as always. Road marches, paperwork, and all the drama. Other than that its fine. Jeff and I are doing well. It's getting harder everyday being away from each other..The communication is slim we were 5 hours apart but now 6 because of the time change. Seeing how Hawaii doesnt change the time. So please continue to pray for our patience with each other. We have grown alot but we have so much more growing to do. OOOO and Jeff is bringing up the baby word more than me lately. But baby drae and mommy are doing well. Life is crazy. I finally signed up for school looks like I will be finished with my assoc by next May if I stay on track. Anyways. Just wanted to update everyone.. OOOO looks like Jeff will be here in Junish.. I so hope so this is driving me crazy. Sara your so great and I love how patient you were when mike was away. I'm praying for you guys. Love ya bunches.. and I miss church like crazy I can't find anything to compare or even close to those that were in our sunday school classes or small group.. We miss all of you so much.

I love Him

PS
We had a death this last week.. Her name is Mary Louis she is a precious. She was from plainview she lost the battle of cancer. She was a wonderful lady. I ask that you all pray for her family. She had 7 or 8 kids and 20 some odd grandchildren. She will be greatly missed but we all know she isn't suffering anymore and shes in the wonderful place!!

SO SO SLEEPY..

WELL I HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED IT SEEMS AS IF THE DAY GOES ON FOREVER ALONG WITH THE WEEKS. IM SO EXCITED JEFF WILL BE HERE SOON GETTING CLOSER BY THE DAY. JEFF IS DOING GREAT IN HIS SCHOOL!! IM SO PROUD OF HIM. IVE LEARNING FINALLY LEARNING THAT YOU TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED WHEN SOMEONE IS THERE AND THEN WHEN THEIR GONE YOU MISS THEM MORE THAN EVER. WE ARE DOING SOME GOOD. I COULDN'T ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE. SO PRINCE IS ADORABLE AS ALWAYS HE KEEPS ME COMPANY CAUSE IT CAN GET REALLY LONELY HERE.I JUST DONT SEE HOW PEOPLE CAN BE SEPARATED FROM THEIR SPOUSES AND THINGS BE PERFECT IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. YES YOU MAY BE STRONG BUT HOW DO MAINTAIN THAT WHEN YOU CANT GIVE THAT PERSON THEIR LOVE LANGUAGE.. FOOD FOR THOUGHT.. I HAVE REALIZED THAT THE ARMY HAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST DIVORCE RATES.. WELL WE ARE GOING TO BREAK THAT BUT I JUST DONT SEE HOW SOLDIERS DONT MIND BEING AWAY FROM THEIR SPOUSES. ONE THING I HATE. IS PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY WHAT HAPPENS TDY STAYS TDY OR WHEREVER THEY ARE.. HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT AND BE HONEST WITH THE PERSON THAT LOVES YOU THE MOST... SO IF YOU READ THIS LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK.. WELL SRY I HAVE HEARD THAT ALOT LATELY FROM SOLDIERS NCOS AND PEOPLE THAT ARE IN THE ARMY.. AND I ALWAYS ASK Y.. NO ONE CAN GIVE ME THE PROPER ANSWER... SO I GOT TO GO...

I LOVE HIM...
