10 days!!!!

So as some of you know, Chuck is leaving for Basic and AIT training, well it is only 10 days away from his departure, it makes me sad and sometimes a little nervous. I am sad because my Best Friend and My Love is leaving me, the one person that I share everything with, even though I dont want to all the time I still do... I am excited for this chapter in our lives but I am just sad to see him leave. He will be back for Christmas and New Years which is far more important to me than Thanksgiving, so I will see him for two weeks then he leaves again and wont be back until the first week of April 2012. I am nervous mostly because I will have lots of alone time and lonely nights, I am only nervous about that because I am afraid of the dark, maybe this will be a way of conquering that fear, but we shall see. I know this will be for our best interest in the future and for our goals that we have set for the next 5 years but it is still a bummer... on a lighter note I have been "trimming the fat" and when I say that I do mean around my hips but also around my house and life. I enjoy all of the people who are around me and in my life for individual reasons and they should all know their purpose in my life by now, if they dont then they should ask. I am so greatful for those around me and those who I can go to when I need them. Sheryll (Bailey's Mom) has been my most recent person to realize I cannot go without talking too, you see Bailey's Mom and I work together and she spent two weeks away at another office, and although we talked almost everyday via instant message, we didnt see one another and we normally eat lunch together and used to sit right next to each other, so not seeing her was a change buuuutttt she is back in our office and haha we are definately back at the laughs and stories we get to share. Thank you Bailey's Mom, Sheryll :) Until next time, Cheers!

  1. Aunt Candace...Bailey here. My Mom said she feels the same. She said you are like a little sister to her so she will be there for you whenever you need! She's not too afraid of the dark!! Haha. On a serious note, it WAS weird being at the other office. And even now taking a 30 minute lunch by myself at my desk is weird too! But, we can still chat and if you ever want to have dinner somewhere you can call us! You are so right about the people in your life...in anyone's life....sometimes you do have to trim the fat. The ones who are meant to stay will be there!

  2. Guess ive never noticed your blog before. You will be fine all in all. Sure some days and nights may be rough but you'll get it may enjoy the quiet from time to time. If you need someone to talk to that's been in the same situation, feel free to call, just remember the time difference as I might kill ya if you call at 6 am ;) as much as I dislike most military things, I am on board with my cousin, this could be a great thing for him, and you!!! Keep yourself busy at first, that is key! It doesn't usually hit me until about week 2 of John being gone, that's when most of meltdowns kick in :) you guys will rock this!

  3. Thank you Carla, your words do make me feel good. I hope for the best for Chuck and I am othing but his supporter in this, because I do know that no EVERYONE is supporting him, even the ones close to him which sucks but I would want the same support from him if I was to choose to do something in the same instance as him. Plus he really hates his job here and this will just help him to move one step closer to his goals. Thank you agian and I will chat with you soon. :)
