BAH HUMBUG and other christmas curses

hey guys,

i know i ve been MIA for some time now but ive got a legit reason. ive been hiding out from my family. i just cant take it. i love them more from a distance. i cant take being here, im trapped and it sucks. my poor sweet husband just gives me encouragement to get through the day. this christmas break is the dumps, now with christmas pretty much around the corner. is it too early for me to say Bah humbug and such?

i beleive

in rocking out by yourself in the car

in laughing until your stomach hurts at a good jokes

in cuddling with a good book and a warm blanket

in a good glass of wine

i married the most handsome soldier in the army

(whats better than a man in class a's)

what do you guys beleive

he cooked for me!!

excuse his scruff, we dont shave on off days ;)

hey ladies, how have you all been? weve just been living in our little world working and going to school. remember in earlier post i said that the hubs never cooked well he surprised me on his off day and made me lunch. we had a wonderful lunch of chilli cheese dogs and chilli cheese tots. it was  very cute of him and he took so much time and made sure everything was cooked right. and get this, he made lemonade to go with it. my little cooking man lol. but on a serious note, i was so happy that he cared enough to make me some food, no matter what he made i would have been over joyed,  he has really been taking things into his own hands lately. taking trash out on his way to work, loading the dish washer, and helping fold clothes.  hes really taken a load off of me. later days guys.

going home

hey guys, how are you? itss the time of year when people are becomming friendlier, the weather is getting chillier, and we are thinking of going home to our families. well for me im thinking of two of the three things previously mentioned. heres a hint, its not the third one. i love my family but i just dont like to be around them. i really really really dont. they just aggravate me and they dont respect my husband. they dont respect how hard he works to provide for us. he wasnt always a soldier. when we first met, he was a struggling college student just like me. but when we met it was like dynamite and we just knew we were going to be together. now my family is what i like to call the "closet conservatives" they act all liberal but i swear a they are just a diferent breed of people. (no offense to any republicans that might read, honestly im a fence rider). my family hated him instantly and then we got married. now dont think i married him to "piss off mommy" because i didnt i honestly love my husband with everything that i am. when we first married we were dirt poor. i mean we wanted to be on rock bottom. not that we have millions in the bank now but to come from where we were to here, major improvement. it was so bad that my mother told me to pick out what box i want to live in, because if i stayed with him that is where i would be. but when he enlisted he became "loved" but they still talk down. and i feel like im not going to be subjected to that and neither is my husband. everyone hates my cousins wife, but no one said anything when he married her. why is it so different for me?

i beleive

1)in true love..
 i feel that true love is like ghost, everyone talks about it and only few have seen it.

2) healing power of music
 i dont know about you guys but music has always been there for me when everyone else walked out.

3) marriage
 i feel that if two people love each other whats a better way of showing it. but a piece of paper doesnt show anymore commitment, you can be married in your heart

4) the family you come from is not as important as the family you will have
 all we can do is try our hardest to better ourselves so that we can give our children better.

5) date nights
 it doesnt matter if you have been together 5 weeks or 5 years, always have a date night. it doesnt mean go out it could just be watching a movie and a glass of wine.

what do you beleive in

things that i like...

hey guys im uber bored and i am gonna make a list of stuff i like. to let you guys get a better idea of what makes me awesome..

1) the hubs, hes just as cool.

2) ice cream, when its hot when its cold, when its just right, its always an ice cream night. ok wow im unleashing my inner rapper.

3)playstation 3

 160 gigs of pure fun!

4) nike dunks..

 leather, suede, or both....pick your poisen

5)red vines

 i am an addict

6) call of duty

 enough said

well thats it for now. maybe later ill post some things i dont like so much. later days

my future puppy

ok guys so ive been puppy searching and falling in love with all these different types of dogs and i cant decide what kind i like the best. now ive fallen in love with siberian huskies. saw what you will. but ive learned that they have NO WOLF in them what so ever, they were bred to look like that so that they could survive the cold. and from what im reading they are alot of work, but hey im a young woman with time time time lol. so i mean how could you not love this  


or this



now i know they grow up to be pretty big, but with  a man in the army and him being gone a lot i would feel better. now the big thing is what color do i just love the most. I love the black and white, but the red is growing on me. oh the decisions. but what ever little guy or girl come to our home you guys will get the first pictures. later dayz

i did the hubs

ok so i have this school project where i have to interview someone in a management postion. and since the hubs is a Quartermaster and he supplies and manages all of his units supplies i decide to interview him. and guess what, he took it serious and was very helpful. ok, so yea im a little surprised, hes a fun guy and sometimes being serious takes a few tries but he'll pull it together. so to see him take interest in my school work and be helpful was honestly kind of a turn on. i learned a lot about him and his views of his job and our military life. and i never knew just how important his job is and that potential lives are in his hand. i mean i thought i had a understanding of what he did but i learned just what he does in the "office" everyday and now i can understand why he comes home tired and just wants to sit for a second. now my thoughts are going to my project and i am wondering if its "cheating" if i use his job and inputs. but hey, how many people will actually have their interviews ready the first day when the teacher just wants to see how many people have them. O WHEEZY, she gets what the hell she gets, tomorrow at least. do i feel bad?....let me think.......still thinking.....no. i try to shed light on actual army lives and military families, not what people have heard or whatever shit they watch on lifetime, which has some army life realities but some of that shit will NEVER FUCKIN HAPPEN or it might happen in rare cases. and i swear if one more person ask me if my life is like the lifetime show, ima slap em, and thats real shit. complete and total sidebar, me and the hubs are thinking of adding a furbaby to our brood. im out of school everyday at about 1:30 at the latest and he works ALL the time and i get lonely so he suggested a puppy. im too excited, were looking and researching what kind of puppy/dog will work with our duo. i do not want a purse dog! no no no not this army wife, i would like a kinda big dog. why you ask? i dont know, just do. but i dont want a big dog that will be bossin me, because that just wont cut it. well anyways guys im going to go take a shower and lay it down, later days

ice cream soda military discount on top

im going to start this off by saying i love ice cream sundea's. i am truly madly deeply head over heals in love with ice cream. we have a little ice cream shop about five minutes away from our house and we always get the military discount, which is more of a reason for me to eat ice cream right. well at least thats what i tell myself. so there is always this one manager there that is a hater for lack of better words. its about 9 pm they close at 10. me and the hubs ate dinner and we were watching cartoons and the hubs says he wants to take me to get ice cream, so i say ok. we get there i get my sundea, he gets his strawberry ice cream with strawberries mixed in it and we go to pay. now mind you its the same chick that cashes us out like everyday, the hubby pulls out his wallet and shows his military i.d. and the girl says "let me go ask my manager" so the hubs and i are like "umm ok" so the manager comes out and shes very rude to us and she tells us that he has to be in uniform for us to get discount. what kinda bullshit. weve gotten the discount everyday since weve been in there and now that this bitch in a bad mood we dont get it. so instead of arguing we paid full price and left. we went back recently and we got the discount. now thats a head scratcher...NOT. some people just suck, and thats a fact. later days guys

when keepin it real goes wrong....

hey guys,

i know i havent been around much lately. its called the end of semester blues. ive been finishing projects and writing papers all while managing a household. sometimes i feel so stretched thin that if i sneeze to hard ill rip into a million pieces. its not easy by far, but at the end of the day, yes i will say its worth it. we dont have the most fancy bomb ass crib but i take pride in our little love nest, it has just enough room for us and we take pride in our little home. we recently had time to take some pictures, which is awesome, we can decorate the blad white walls with our lovly brown faces lol. let me tell you guys what happend. i was in the grocery store and i notice this dude following me, im like whatever at first then it got to creeper status. so i pull out my phone and try to call jay, i have no signal in the store. i think to myself, "This is the shit horror movies are made of" so im in the juice isle and the guy comes up to me, and yes i was ready to swing and scream and run all at the same time. he says "Your really beautiful, i would like to take you out" it would have been flattering if he didnt stalk me through produce. i gently turned him down and explain im married. thinking that would be the end of it he says "well thats not a problem for me" im like this dude not hearing me, so i say "im married, meaning i cant go out with you, not that i would if i didnt have a husband" maybe that was a little bitchy but hey thats life. so i go back to deciding what hot sauce i want (to many choices in some damn hot saucenow adays but its important can make or break a meal) then the creeper says "well tell your husband he can come too" im like no this fool did not just go there with me. so i say " look dude, im not interested and my husband isnt into the group thing" and i walk of after grabbing a random hot sauce(oh no yall thought i wasnt gonna grab some hot sauce). when i get home jay is laying across the bed watching UFC, nothing wrong with that. so after i put the food up i join him and tell him about my super market adventure and after he laughs he got serious and says "what he look like". im like wow really guy...really. some total stranger hits on your wife and its funny. well later days guys, gotta go eat dinner

peace

pancakes and GI JOE

wonderful lazy day, cuddles and horrible movies and i finally watched my very first episode of GI JOE. now im still learning the characters but over all, its not so bad. but we'll get back to GI JOE in a second, right now were going to talk about horrible service at a local IHOP. one of the favorite things for me and the hubs to do is wake up early and go get some good ole' pancakes. the only place to get pancakes around here is IHOP, which is a good 30 minute drive. its only so much waffle house you can take and the waffle house crew(around here) has some lets say memorible people that frequent/work there. so we wake up grab a newspaper and boogie on down the road, with that being said if were driving 30 minutes i want good service. now because we are at IHOP all the time we usually get really good service. but this time we get seated with attitude and served cold eggs and pancakes. i sat there like -_- did this bitch really give me cold eggs. so i looked over at the hubs and he had a look like he was going to slap the waitress with his cold omlette. so instead of acting crazy we got a check and paid and left, hungry and gas wasted was enough to piss off anyone. so instead of panckes we came home and looked in the freezer and it was all dinner food, so yes we had chicken and string beans for breakfast and it was good! and this waitress got a new video game for a tip! so after kitchen clean up we cuddled and watched GI JOE. and i kinda liked it. but i wont tell him that. later days guys

duffle bag blues

hey guys, hows life? in my little world of ps3, cooking and all things army(i squeeze school in there somewhere) i realized how sick of army green duffle bags i am. they are huge, dont match our furniture, and in the way. i mean im so sick of the damn things its sad.the hubs had training last week(i think last week...my life has become one big day, dont judge) and when he came home he left that damn bag in the bedroom. like seriously....come on son, i dont want to wake up in the morning late for school(always) and trip over cavlar halments and so on. this was just a short little post to vent. more comming soon

and then i woke up.....

hello again,

guys i had this really awesome dream that i had an actual husband who didnt get called to go away at a moments notice. it was lovely, then all of a sudden i felt this gentle touch and i began to stir and i opened my eyes and looked up and what do i see? my husband in full PT uniform.
"gotta go babe, love you, hopefully i wont be gone too long"

in the mist of my early morning unwanted(yea i said it) wake up call. i had to grumble and get the sleep out of my eyes and make sure i heard correctly. so i get up and see him to the door like any wife i yelled at him to make sure he had all of his clothes and shower shoes. ultra lame i know but hey, someone has to make sure he has everything. i dont know about you guys but once im up, IM UP. when my mind hits the on button i cant go back to sleep for all the silk in china. so its like five in the morning, my mind is on i cant sleep, whats a girl to do....watch cartoons. didnt help lul me back to sleep, so i just laid there.....i laid in bed until about eight then i got up and did nothing. i felt sooooo useless just blah. then i got on the phone, thank god for besties. i literally have been in bed all day. ive watched movies and thats about it. so i get a text at about 4:30 and guess who was finishing up (hint *jay) the hubs. so i jumped out of bed and grabbed something out of the freezer and cooked him a good dinner. now he's stretched out in bed. but before he gets too relaxed ima go get some ice cream out of him(my reward for being cooped up).

throwback pick of him getting ready for pt, i woke up to this face this morning so im not too mad

laundry: a love hate story

so as i have mentioned before, my husband(jay) is in the army(hot soldier above). with that being said, until he came home from basic training i never realized how much laundry comes with that. like O EMM FRICKIN GEE, i wash ACU's every single day(well it feels like it). i take pride in our little home and how he goes to work. i try to keep up a clean home, run our errands, grocery shop, cook(im not too bad just anxious about it), and send him to work in a clean uniform. i scrub and scrub and scrub some more those evil red clay patches in his knees. i mean the red clay just wants to perminently hang out. hes come home with it on his shoulders and knees. now, how in the hell it get on the back of his shoulders and not the whole back, i cant tell you. when he goes to the feild and comes home and im doing laundry i feel as if i am the mother to a very active little boy. as if im getting grass stains out of football uniforms,washing basketball uniforms or bleaching baseball socks. but instead of fighting with red clay and mud, i have made a new friend, her name is spary and wash, we hit it off right away. that has made my life so much easier. i love sending him to work clean and smelling good, i feel like im doing my wifely job. as much as i hate washing clothes, i dont mind  when he comes home covered in mud and clay, its the sign of a good day. if you have a man in the army and hes not comming home dirty he was probably bored out of his mind. it takes a special man to be in the army, and an even more special woman to be an army wife. another thing is no one is going to say that i send my husbad to work any kind of way. as much as i love what the army has done for my husband and what the army is providing for our family, it can be a gossip driven society. im a pretty much fly under the radar type girl and i dont need people in my business.  well later days people, have a good one.

and the beat goes on

Ladies, have you ever had one of those days when you just wanna hit restart? ok so  my day been a "restart" type day. first off, here is my disclaimer, IF YOU DONT WANNA READ A WHOLE BUNCH OF SENTENCE ENHANCERS(SWEAR WORDS) CHECK BACK IN A COUPLE DAYS *KISSES*
now that's out the way lets begin. shall we? so last night im up until around umm lets say 3 with a horrible headache and cramps(so much fun -_-) and i had a presentation at 8 in the damn moring for this bullshit class. now you know when it comes to school i hate group projects, mainly because there is always the one person who dont do shit. and so when i get to class in the am after a night in fetal position, i see my other group member who worked and pulled weight and here comes this for lack of a better word....young man. wasnt dressed up or anything, needless to say the teacher called us to go first. can you say shit show? now for those of you who dont know what a shit show is here goes the definition.

Shit Show: (v) looking like a jack ass in public and knowing it.

the dude had his back to the class and was reading(or lack there of) the slides. now one thing that grinds my gears.....looking like a jack ass. i take pride in myself and my work. and when i have a idiot making me look like a fool in front of a room of people. i get mad.

i feel like ive been shot at and missed but shit at and hit. i just want my husband. he wont be home until 01:00 maybe even after that.
later dayz guys

orange juice and popsicles

the hubs has the flu. and i feel so bad for him right now. at the moment hes wrapped up in a blanket watching movies. well, the movie is watching him. he looks so pitiful. so, usually he is never sick. he has some sort of cast iron immune system that just lets him stand in the rain for twelve hours with no jacket and not even have a cold. but when he does get sick, OMG, he's really sick. and is it just my hubs, or do all men digress when they are under the weather? he wants to be cuddled and fed popsicles and orange juice. its so sad but its kind of cute to. but i did have to deal with a rude woman at the store when i was buying him some meds. so i got some nyquil, some sprite and some popsicles. i went to go check out and the woman rang up my nyquil, then my sprite and then she made a face. she says "i hope you not trying to mix this together to drink" i said "no, my husband is sick" and she goes "husband? how old are you 20?" i say "im 22" and she says "you had to get married? you got kids" i said "no" so she goes about making her little comments and finishes checking me out. so that got me to thinking, UH OH. why are people sso shocked to hear that i have a husband? but thats a blog for another day. i have to go deliver a popsicle.
later days guys. have a good one

my day my way

nope, im not talking about a wedding. my wedding was quick and to the point at a chapel in the mountains.
blog for another day. but my birthday has been a pleasent surprise. i got a serenade at 1:30 in the morning, i got my own personal chocolate cake and roses!! omg, i dont remember the last time this man got me some flowers. there red and yellow roses. and i am in LOVE!!! im not really one for flowers, mainly because i have horrible sinuses and allergies, but flowers really do brighten up a room. this whole weekend i have felt like a complete and total princess. ive been driven where ever i need to go, doors opened for me(he does everyday but i feel extra special). he is truly a loving man, when he decides to show it.  well, im going to go eat and watch some movies, later days

Mrs. Lonely

Ok so my birthday is coming up. In fact, it's on Monday. The big 22, now Ill admit, it's not as exciting as 21. But 21 was kind of a depressing birthday cuz the hubs shipped out for basic 10 days later. Since we've been together we've never had a birthday apart. He's never missed my birthday and this year he's working on my birthday :( I understand that he has too but like geez can I have you for just that day. He says he has surprises for Saturday and I know he's trying to cheer me up but it's not the same. Now I know all you guys out in blog land are like geez woman hush but this just sucks on a whole 'nother level.

So I'm gonna share what Ive got planned for my big day. Thunder cats(80's classic), ice cream, movies, and what ever else happens. It's not much but honestly, I've never been a party or club person. I enjoy going out for a drink(responsibly of course) now and then. But that's as far as I go. The allure of the club never consumed me. I'm just an old soul, and I'm okay with that. Anyway, im feeling pretty good. I'm over that evil flu that's been creeping around with the weather changes. This extreme fluxuation of weather sux, but don't worry I thanked my mom for killing the ozone with all that hair spray in the 80's.

At the moment I'm waiting to hear keys in the door. Dinner is cooked, and I'm watching rocky. Sad, yes. Indeed this is what I do waiting on the hubs. I do homework, cook, clean and watch mindless dribble.

In sickness and in health

So for the past two days I've had some sort of virus and im finally starting to feel better. And bless the hubs lil heart he was right there for me every day. He made sure I ate and had blankets and ginger ale, he even fixed me a plate for dinner.Such a sweet heart, but anyway, every year faithfully I catch some sort of virus as the weather changes. Sucks for me right now right...NOPE, cuz in a few weeks I'm going to have the flu. I just know it. It's happened every year sine elementary school.

The hubs and I have horrible sinuses. I apologize to my future children because they will more than likely have allergy and sinus issues. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I was able to use my nose properly, like allergy meds have no affect on my sinus pressure. Any advise is welcomed.

I just want to feel better, my muscles are so sore. I feel like I just went into basketball tryouts out of shape. I think I just want to go to sleep, I'll catch up with you guess in a few

Never Forget

Ten years ago, our country was shaken to it's core by a sick group of individuals. No matter how old I get, around this time of year I regress back to this scared eleven year old who knew some thing happend but didn't know the significant meaning of it all. I remember seeing strangers helping each other and a lot of people shedding tears of sorrow. But at eleven, I just didn't understand.

Then came the immediate surge of patriotism in America. American flags on houses, cars, store windows and every where else you can imagine. I remember people taking pride in their country again. Growing up in a family of service members having pride in America was never really an issue. For a while I thought everybody's house looked like 4th of July year round.

Then came the war. Now at eleven I didn't understand why it was happening but as I grew older and became aware of my surroundings I learned that even unpleasant things can SOMETIMES be nessasary. Hints the term nessasary evil. Now don't go thinking I'm some war loving savage(and if you are more power to you) because I'm not. I pray for peace just as any other military spouse would in times of danger. I worry about the day my husbands number is called, let's face it when duty calls you can't hit ignore. I understood the danger that comes with the title of soldier when he signed his contract, and I understood the danger of military spouse. As much as I love him it's certain things regarding his job that I'm not too comfortable thinking about, simply because I can't.

This September 11th, if you have a chance, shake a soldiers hand. Whether you are anti or pro military it doesn't matter. They stand and fight until they can't anymore for your safety. They miss holidays, anniversaries, birthdays, births, and so much more just so you can spend all those precious moments with your family. Freedom isn't free by far.

God bless America, and everyplace else

ive been domesticated

so growing up i never thought that  i would be the wife that did the laundry, cooked dinner, cleaned the house, etc. but then i get married and i havent really noticed it until just a few moments ago. it hit me like a mac truck speeding down the highway.

I HAVE BEEN DOMESTICATED...

i had to sit down. ive been thinking about how my life has changed and its plain as day. i wash ACU's practically all the time, i vaccum almost daily(idk what it is but i swear this man sheds crumbs). fold clothes, clean the bathroom damn near daily and the list goes on. i mean what happend to me?

i mean im not the most organized person by a long shot but i know where everything is. but now its a total 180 degree's. i dont know maybe one day ill stop caring, but i doubt it. is marrige waking up a brand new me?

we like to party!

ok so why dont single people wanna hang out with married people?  i mean just because we have rings on our fingers doesnt mean we dont enjoy going out, i mean were young and without children just like you, so why cant our single people call us for a night out?

i noticed this when we started dating, a lot of our single friends sort of cut us off in the beginning and we were like "Hmm what gives" then we started hanging out with other couples who experianced the same social shunning. since when did relationship mean social lepar(no disrespect to lepars). however with our new relationship friends we were introduced to new kinds of outings and fun things to do. group dates, couples spa days, and guys nights( the guys play madden and we laugh at them and eventually join).

but i noticed when i would see old single friends they would act as if i didnt exist, which really hurt at first, but hey..thats life.  but seriously, we like to have fun and party. and a relationship isnt a bad thing either. i have a date to all my events that has a "suit" he looks hot in, i always have someone to cuddle and watch tv with, always a date to the movies, and the list goes on.

on a serious note though, dont hate on the married people, we still party....probably harder than the single folks, later days

throw back pic

just the two of us

its a nice calm lazy day on our end. now usually im awake and up moving and headed out the house no later than 7:30. in the am, thanks to school. but this nice little holiday monday gave me time to sleep. ive forgotten how good it feel to be in a nice warm bed. suprisingly i stayed asleep until about 9:00.  now the hubs stayed sleep until around 10:00. i just left him alone so he can allow his body to rest. now im not much of a breakfast girl personally, but this morning i was a little hungry, so i made a little toast(lol i said i dont do breakfast)

currently im in heaven, sprawled out in bed, the hubs is next to me and watching MSNBC. this is the perfect day. like i missed this time with him terribly. while he was gone. its true that you dont know what you have ubtil its gone, but even though i miss him im very proud of him and i know how lucky i am to have someone to miss.


just the MR&MRS on a random outing

Rainy days and football

Ok, it's the day that we've been waiting for. COLLEGE FOOTBALL KICKOFF!!!!!! Beer, BBQ, and victory parties. Living and dying with every play, swearing at refs, ok I'm an emotional fan But it's ok. I love sports I know and accept that, but the thing that's kinda got me down this year is it's raining on opening day. Not that it's a serious problem but with me already not feeling 100 percent, sitting in the rain ain't happening. Now at 18 I was in there but not at practically 22, the flu isn't a good look for me.

Now luckily for me the hubs is in love with football. He loves Michigan state and will curse Ohio state until the end of time. Our perfect Saturday is sleeping in, finding something to eat, watching afternoon games, maybe a snack, and I'll cook dinner before the big night game. He loves wings while he's watching football, but don't all men.

But today I'm feeling lazy, it's raining I'm in my comfy clothes and I just don't have it in me to cook. Im gonna take a nap and we'll see where today goes, if he gets hungry enough he'll "cook"

Later days

while hubs is away i will play

video games that is. im not going to get on a blog and confess to cheating lol. ok when me and jay(hubs) started dating we would just sit and play madden for hours!!!! break to go eat then go back to the game. that was how the magic happend. i had him at playstation. now that he's working more i have more time to bullshit on PSN(playstation network). I love all kinds og games, fighting, sports, cod(call of duty). That's pretty much how I roll. I love creating classes on cod, modifying my weapons is always fun. Can't go wrong with a good football game either. No matter how much fun I have just playing PS3 for hours on end but I miss him. But playing by myself has helped me get my skills up :)

just a rant

look...i dont know if you all have seen it but there is a music video about wal mart buy a man named "Mr. Ghetto"...if you havent seen it heres the link.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1tufujnbzU

now im going to warn its about 4 minutes of your life you will never get back but this shit is pure fuckery(now i know fuckery isnt a real word but it fits). this dude went out and probably found the most hoodrat chicks he saw and bought them some remy and gave their kids a new pair of sneakers. lets be honest, what woman is going to shake her ass in a shopping cart in wal mart while she's  being recorded probably on a cell phone.... -_-

i understand that New Orleans is a different cultrure. flat out i get that, when i was 18 me and a friend went to see what new orleans was like and i was crossing a street and a man rolled down his car window and asked how much we charge. needless to say i havent been in a rush to go back. but i know some very smart down to earth people from new orleans and ive seen(because i try not to associate with such people) people that i want to give a trophy to that says "Thank you for setting back the race"

Call me uppity, white washed or what have you but i grew up in california and got a private education, my mother always said "Oink Oink and Moo Moo isnt in your vocabulary so dont act like a animal" and ive carried that throughout my life. i just saw this and had to vent.

complete and total sidebar. the hubs LOVED the enchiladas that i cooked last night. who knows maybe a domestic goddess might be somewhere deep inside

Yea, I'm trying

Ok so let's keep it real...I'm not much of a domestic goddess. Yea I cook, I
Clean, I even try my hand at baking(box cakes, I already said I'm not a domestic
Goddess). I feel like this man goes to work and when I'm not in class I'm at home
For the most part, so it's no excuse for him not to have a meal cooked waiting for him.
I know it's not 1952 but I feel like as his wife it's my duty to take care of him and make sure that his needs are met, and he does the same for me. When I'm in the living room hunched over a computer cursing the inventor of microeconomics he straightens the bedroom and will even run the vacuum. I'm stil trying to get him to cook though, it'll happen one day...its along the lines of this
Me: babe I don't feel like cooking you cook
Hubs: u want Chinese food?
Me: we have a fridge full of food.
Hubs: yea and you don't wanna cook
I leave it there because he will argue me down about cooking. But tonight he will have something special! I'm cooking chicken enchiladas with Spanish rice. I'm almost done cooking the chicken, which is pretty much the longest part then it's smooth sailing. I can't wait to see his cute little face. (sorry about the mush). Well this is me signing off,
Have a good rest of the day, maybe even surprise your guys with something that you don't make too often :)

ok so lets be on our rick james( its a celebration for all you non chapelle watchers), the hubs is back!!! oh yea be jealous lol, just kidding, but i missed him more than words can express, i didnt realize how much he was a part of me until he left for Ft. Benning Ga. and now that he's back i feel like im whole again. ok yea very cheesy but he does that to me. so lets get started on this huge life change.

Pro:
DISCOUNTS GALORE, ok im not much of a shopper, probably strange for a young woman, but i hate the process of trying clothes on, searching for the "perfect" outfit. totally hate it. i mean my wardrobe is hot topic tee's, maybe a pair of jeans but mostly basketball shorts and a good pair of sneakers. I LOVE SNEAKERS!! (topic for another day). saving money on sneaks is a very good passtime

HEALTH, ok so yea, i love a good cheese burger and fries or onion rings and jay (hubs) does too, but with him having to keep his weight up (or down) we have changed our diets all the way around. we eat more salads and pretty much cut soda out of our diets. i lost 15 pounds (go me lol)

INCOME, slow and steady wins the race....i mean we have insurance and we can afford not to cook if we dont want to. oh yea and we can afford food to cook!!! no more "fasting"/ telling ourselves were not hungry. and i dont have to work at that MEGA NASTY ASS diner anymore!!

Pride, yea i love seeing him in his ACU's looking pround of himself. its funny when he's in uniform his whole walk changes, he'll walk like GI JOE.

CONS:

NO FACIAL HAIR, i loved his gotee, he had it since ive known him and now that i see the shaving cream out every morning im kinda sad.

LONLINESS, yea with him working alot he's not home at the usual times i got used to him being home and yea it gets lonely, but missing him allows me to realize how lucky i am to have someone to miss.

PDA, were not the make out in public type couple, but we do like to hold hands and depending on where we are that isnt too acceptable...

well so far were just enjoying all the time we have, mainly because deployment rumors are starting to come about...
