Army Mum's blog: "Army Mum"

Wow! it's hard to believe that I've not blogged since 06! So much has happend too! My Oldest daughter is now stationed in Iraq, she has been there since September 07, and should be going back to Germany December 08, I am so ready for her to get out of the war over there! Just seems like they are fighting a loosing battle.... But I know she has done her part serving and protecting... She also came home in July 08 and got married to Neil, who is also in the Army, they met in Germany awhile before she was depoyed. Neil is also Deployed in Iraq just at a different base so they don't get to see each other very much.. They had a lovely wedding, I got to go all out for them and we got them a lovely Cinderella Carriage, My Mum did her cake which she had cupcakes as well, she got to dance which she loves to do and it was so kewl to see Neil line dance also! :o) My Youngest graduated 6th grade in 06 and is 8th grade now, playing a Saxaphone in the school band and on the flag guard also she loves it! I am no longer working, I just got tired of all the back stabbing and lies that was going on, I taught one of the owners wife my job and they decided that they didn't need me anymore, which is fine I was ready to go! after 8 years at one place with some of the same folks and the same bull sh*t I was ready. I will be looking for a job here in the next few weeks as my unemployment runs out! Man I have so enjoyed being home, made me lazy I know that much! LOL OK well thats enough for now, gonna go see what new things Fubar has now! Ta Ta For Now (TTFN) Smiles

Well here it is Sunday January 7th late at night! hubby is sleeping as usual hell it's after midnight! LOL ;o)~ Rikki left Tuesday to go back to Germany... It was a lovely visit, Staying up late with My Rikki! that was the bestus times. I got to see all her adventures and fun she is having in Germany! She told me that OctoberFest isn't as great as it's made out to be! LOL ;o)~ Christmas was Great, other than me catching the Funk and Cramping! Yes all Christmas Day and Boxing Day too! That Sucked! but I made the best of it! :o) I took off Work for 9 days.. Vacation and time with my family! News Years was Wonderful, Hubby and I didn't go anywhere this year cause I wanted to spend time with Rikki LOL I got alittle tipsy, and remember the whole night! Usually I drink too much and I swear I didn't do it! ;o)~ New Years Day was Hubby & Mine 14th Anniversary also! So along with My parents we all went out to eat at Golden Corral! One of Our favorite places to eat! BUFFET! Yummmm Then came tuesday.. The day I didn't want to come but couldn't change it! LOL We took Rikki to the Airport 4 hours early! Last time we were late which wasn't a good thing. Even though having her for one more day was a Treat to me hehehee ;o)~ Matt came to see her off too! It was a fun 4 hours..... I was really good I really didn't cry until she was done with I'm guessing the search! LOL She didn't see us still there but I did yell even though she didn't hear me! :o)~ Hubby let me get a bottle of Crown on the way home.. I dranked it all that night! Puffy eyeed, snotty nosed drunk I was LOL Now I'm back to work, getting the End of the year inventory done, which I pretty much finished today! Yay! Now I have to get the End of the Month Totals ready for Paula. O the joys of my job! LOL Anyway I'm gonna get for now. Gonna make sure everyone knows the winners of my Football contest!

Well we just found out that the US Army will be keeping My oldest Daughter "Rikki" away from her family over Christmas! Which is a real bummer as I've not seen her since March 06. She tells me that they are going to let her come home in February 07, thats to be seen as I won't get my hopes up, it really hurts when they are broken! My girls at work said that we will keep the Christmas Tree up until she returns and it'll be a Valentines Christmas. They are Great! She will be leaving for Iraq in July 07, I am NOT looking forward to that at all! She is Excited about it, she loves challenges and that one is a biggen! Ok thats all I wanted to Vent! Byeeeee
