WELL...now there are 35 members in my group. Yesterday there were 22. Wives from every company in the brigade. I am helping people...they are helping me...it's the second best thing to being on an army base and having the complete support of everyone you live by. It makes me feel good, it really helps me get through this. Everyday it seems some new young wife or maybe not young maybe just someone who has never experienced deployment messages me and asks me for advice or help. I am NOT an expert, but I really think I have helped people. And that really helps me. I minister to them...I tell them to have faith in God. And that helps my faith. I think I have found my calling. I need to quit work and just be a webpage designer HAHA i kid i kid, don't freak out!
Anyway...if you care...here is an excerpt from one of the bulletins i posted on my group...
Deployments are tough...there is no way around that. As far as getting easier, i don't know about that either. I personally believe that we all have a choice in how we handle this next year. We can lay down in our beds and cry our eyes out every day and die inside...or we can get up, go on with our lives, send packages, be active in this group and FRG, pray often, and KEEP GOING. I MAKE myself get up each day and go to work and smile. Everyone tells me how strong I am, but really it isn't that I am strong. It's that I choose to have a positive outlook...my son and husband deserve that from me.
LOL, didn't mean to preach. I just get passionate about things that are important to me.
I have my moments. I let myself cry. And then, I say, "ok holli...get up and do something." and i do...and time passes. And my love and devotion for my husband grows.
Deployments are tough...but i am tougher! We all Are!
love you guys,
holli
so anyway, i am sorry i haven't put pics up. The stupid desktop won't work and I can't figure out how to set up the picture wizard on my laptop to only copy the pics of my camera that i want...it either will upload all 354923875435 of them or none of them. I am computer stupid. Ugh. BUT...i will get them up asap. Part of it is I am too tired and feel to crappy to mess with it tonight...so forgive me.
I LOVE YOU...i miss you...and i will hopefully get to hear your voice sometime in the next few days. LET ME KNOW WHAT THE DOCTOR SAYS ABOUT YOUR FOOT....oh who am i kidding. You prob won't even see this for another month...*sigh*
well, love you baby...g'night...i sent your second package out today.
