I moved into our house on base a few weeks ago, and I absolutely love it!! I'm honestly just happy to have a garage! In our last apartment complex, parking was ridiculous, and if you didn't find a spot up on the very top of the hill where we were, you would have to park down the hill and walk up. I also set up my own vanity area!!! During my bridal shower, my sister had everyone write down notes/advise for me on a notecard, so I scattered them around it...here's a picture..I think it turned out really nice...
On top of that, the house has got a lot of storage space. We could always use that with all of Tucker's military gear!
So some updates on Tucker I can fill you guys in on...
he's been making and selling "wraps" out there in Afghanistan for the guys he works with. Tucker just loves doing this...I guess you need a hobby to keep you sane out there with the "every day's the same" routine. I'm happy he's happy.
Apparently someone up there in rank told him that he thinks he's the best at it in the entire company!!! I could hear the pride in his voice when he told me that =)
My friend Kinzi has been with me here in california for the past 2 and a half weeks helping me get settled in. She leaves me Saturday and I'm pretty bummed about it :( But on a brighter note, my friend Ellie from New York has chosen to spend her spring break with me this year!! So I get her from the 14th until the 20th!! Our plans so far are to go to LA and possibly watch a tv showing, and also heading back to vegas the 17th (going back the 19th) to see my family.
After that, Its go time for me to officially start my independant life here...VERY out of my comfort zone, but whatever doesn't kill me will only make me stronger. Obviously theres a purpose for what's happening, so I'm going to try my best to learn something from this experience.
Although, on a side note, I REALLY can't wait until my husband comes back.
You're amazing! I really admire your strength and positive attitude! Keep it up and only good thing will come. It's amazing that you are finding all the good and are learning so much from this really hard experience. You rock!
