Short lived

My husband left for basic a week ago, he was diagnosed with Keratoconus shortly after arriving.  He is being medically discharged.  So they are sending him home, he will be coming home within 10 days and up to 2 months.  I really appreciate all the support I received from you ladies and the friends I have made through this site.  I wish you all the best, and stay strong ladies! <3

Life Is Crazy

Hey Girlies,

I know I haven't been on in FOREVER. But as most of you know my SO Steven got home in Decemeber and came to TX on his leave, well I went back to SC with him for a short visit and it's turned into me moving there with him. I am currently already in SC, I just have to go to TX to go get my things and any suggestions on how to pack my things safely and what the best options are to move them and my car (most likely need a tow as it has a lot a mileage on it). So any…

January 2013 Post

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to start posting regularly on here. So, for starters: I am engaged as of 1/21 and cannot be happier about it! I  also am in the Pharmacy Tech program and have been in for almost a month! School is going very well and I am so happy and blessed to have everything going in a good direction again!

However, I do need prayers that my mom will start accepting everything soon. She knows that I am not 'wedding planning'  until after I graduate school, however…

Love is blind they say

Love is blind they say and I guess it is true. True for me. I'm in love I mean was in love with a man that I thought will love me back deeply. I'd thought wrong. Just this morning I'd found out from my friend (MY FRIEND) that he is expecting a baby from another woman and he already had three from previous relationship. How fooled I am to not knowing that? It just heart broken reading all the messages that girl sent to my friend telling her to tell me to stop loving him cause they have life…

My soldier has two moms. One is his step mom and one is his real mom. I am really close with his step mom because he's close with her and she lives just 15 minutes from me. His real mom lives in Texas and he isn't as close with her. But i have recently gotten in touch with her via facebook and we also exchanged numbers. I haven't met her yet but the plan is for me to meet her once he is back from deployment. The problem is that his step mom saw that we were talking on facebook (the two moms…

He hasnt been deployed yet beside in South Korea so we know it's coming. And he is here from a lot of his sargents that there is a unit deploying from there. I am young and I haven't really lived on my own if he was to get deployed so it's kind of scary plus I won't know anyone. Should I stay there while he is deployed or go back home to Alabama… Continue

I need to vent!

I need to vent and I need someone to tell me if i'm totally over reacting or not.  My fiance has been overseas for about 4 months now, I have been sending him packages every week or so due to the fact that his family has not sent him anything at all.  Recently his family has decided to post his address online and ask if anyone wants it to send him a holiday package because he won't be home for the holidays.  I'm kind of frustrated because I've been on the phone with my fiance when he's…

Hi Ladies, I haven't done any of these blog parts before. But my Love is coming home FINALLY!!!!! YAY!!!!!! Well, he wants to take me hunting. I have never been and have very rarely shot.

a little poem i wrote for my soldier whos deploying this week <3

A Poem For My Soldier

Distance to love is like wind to a flame,

it extinguishes the small, and ignites the great.

Our love is too great for a Shakespearean play,

a storyline of his, is us in one day.

You'll be gone a long while to a faraway land,

a place of just dirt, of wind and some sand.

But while you're away, i promise to be

as faithful as ever, and remain being me.

Packages, letters, phone calls, and cards

will fill…

Deployment Donut

Some of us love countdowns. The deployment donut give you the days past and the days left.  All you have to do is put the days the service member left and the day they come back.

Am I over reacting?

I really needed him earlier & he wasn't here for me. He said that he was too busy out with friends. I still haven't heard from him. Now I'm wondering if he is really ready to get married and become an instant family (I have a 5 year old). Its not just today. He hasn't really been here for me a lot lately. I understand that he's been busy with work. But whenever I need him he's either busy with friends, or going to sleep. Maybe it's the distance, I don't know. Maybe I'm just over reacting… Continue

Mothers Problems

Hey girls, I need some help here. My boyfriend just surprised me last week and it was so wonderful to have him home <3  but, there was an issue with his mom. His parents have been nothing but welcoming to me ever since we first started dating and since my family isn't the most stable thing in the world, I really appreciated them. I go have dinner with them a lot even though Quinten isn't there and we always have a great time. They love me as long as he isn't there. It's when he's home and…
