Thanks for stopping by, follow me through my year!

Well this is all pretty exciting for me. I am new to the "blogosphere" but thought I would document my journey through another deployment.
This is the fifth deployment for my husband, and each one is different and difficult in its own way.
There are many men and women out there just like me; spouses, fathers, mothers, sisters brothers, and children. So many of us that put our lives in a bit of a holding period waiting for our loved ones to come home.
For most of us, we know the sacrifice our soldiers pay, as well as the sacrifice each of us pays while they are gone!
For better or for worse, we keep the home fires burning.

March is here!



I am so glad to have February in my review mirror! What a cold month that was, rain, gusting winds and of course the snow!

I am glad that Monday is here, time to encourage myself falling back into a routine of running and studies. I let myself "sulk" a little this weekend but come on I am allowed a few days of self pity, right? I know I am not the only one who does this...

I got up early this morning to get my mind awake so I would make the most of my day by doing the above stated tasks - right after I take Seth to school. It was a nice surprise to get an IM from our former Pastor in Augusta, GA. What an amazing man and friend. While talking to him, I was reminded of my days in the church kitchen every Wednesday, what a blessing that was for me. I found that church while Doug was gone, and he was hesitant when he got home to attend, but fell in love with the congregation just like I did. Great friends were made in those days at Grace Baptist Church of Evans GA. We miss them all very much. Thanks for making my day Bill, I needed that!

I walked outside yesterday for something and as I looked at the grass, I felt a longing to mow it (I have a riding lawnmower after all! A little weird I know, but I am ready for warmer temps! So let the countdown to the first day of Spring begin...
