Lots to Say today

So today I have lots to say. Weird I know since usually I post the pictures and than I am done.
I do have the pictures to post today, lots of them. But I have stuff to say to.

Okay so I haven't really talked to my siblings in a bit. We had some drama, for whatever reason, and I just stepped away and stopped talking to them. It made things a lot easier on me and my life. Anyway each day on certain social networking sites I make sure to include in my status a small message to Jack, usually something to the extent that I am loving and missing him. Jack enjoys seeing them and I enjoy writing them. It is strictly for our purposes and I honestly couldn't care what others think. Well come to find out my sister has found it necessary to not only make comments regarding something that has nothing to do with her, but she is mocking it. Well I found this out about a month after she started this. The girl is almost 33 years old, but yet, she feels the need to mock others. Whatever that may be about. I went ahead and deleted her off of everything and walked away from the whole situation, yet again.

I am writing this here only because I feel the need to get the annoyance out somewhere. I am not going to change my life for someone. My number one priority is my husband and if a small message on myspace or facebook, makes him smile, while he is far away and in a stressful place, you better believe that I will continue doing so.

I guess it just makes me sad that my own sister would not understand that. Someday she will grow up and understand it, but until then, I have decided that my life is better off with out her. I don't need the drama that she creates.

On to another topic. I have been feeling pretty crappy lately and scheduled an appointment with my doctor. He referred me back to my rheumatologist. He thinks the back spasms and what not are from my RA, which could be the case. So I call and get an appointment, granted it is for a month later. Hopefully they won't want to put me on strong meds again. That would not be cool. I am just hoping for good things. We shall see. Maybe if you could say a prayer or two... that would help.

Now for some fun pictures...hehe

35% done!

So we are 35 % done with this deployment! Yeah for that.


Things have been going well. I have been cranky this week, because I didn't get a chance to talk to Jack so much. I guess I was spoiled when I got to talk to him so much, so when I didn't talk to him, I got really cranky. I mean I knew this all could happen, but I still got cranky none the less.


One of the things that has helped immensely, has been focusing on our life plan. Focusing on the plans that we have made together. The plan for our life. This deployment is just step one in this plan. So as long as I realize that we are working the plan, then I am okay.


Missing someone is never fun, but you continue on. You do what you have to do. It doesn't mean that you miss that person any less, it just means that you function with out them. Which is what I do, I function. I do what needs to be done. I have fun at times, but always on my mind is my husband and that I miss him.


People have said it gets easier. I wonder when this will be. I don't miss him any less on any given day. I miss him all the time. Everyday. I am proud of what my husband is doing and I support him 100%. So for this reason, I continue to do what I need to do.


So Jack - I miss you. You know that... but I just thought I would tell you again.


So now on to the pictures of the day...
