Wow, long time since I've been on! Well, lots to report. Hope you are all well and happy!

Both of my daughters are doing well, thank goodness! Older daughter went back to school today, she was very happy. She came home with a cut under her eye. She's only 3 so we are having a hard time figuring out what happened. She says ten different things about it, lol. Younger D is happy, walking, talking so much more.

I had a rought time last week with older D. I lost it on Saturday, had to walk out of the house (H was with kids). I cursed and said "I can't take this F'ing Crap", I can't believe I flipped like that, but older D has become such a handful, just wants to control everything! Anyway, I have never done that before and felt terrible about it. H and I talked about it, he tried to offer tips, he's always so calm, my opposite, lol. I decided that if I NEVER got upset, flustered, etc, I wouldn't be normal, but I think I went too far the other day with the language, and I need to find a happy medium with her, so that's my present goal.

Anyway, today is my birthday. 35 years old. I've been upset about it, I also have PMS, so maybe all of this attributed to blowing up about daughter?

H has been so loving. He sent an email Friday saying how he loves me so much, can't wait to get home from work to hold me, etc. When he got home, I said "Did you get orders? Are you deploying?" He said "No, why?", I said "then why were you so mushy? (laughed when I said it)" He's never that mushy, lol. It was nice to read. Also, he has been so great all weekend. He took out for dinner Saturday night, and then we walked around in Borders. Sunday he made me a cake, and tonight we had dinner, he cooked, and cake. It was very nice.

I am so happy with our life right now. I joined the Enlisted Spouses Group and I will also be involved in a book club that I suggested to the president of the group. I go out about once a week, or once every other week alone, just to get a break and do things I like. H goes golfing once a week also. So, we have come a long way! Just wanted to post and say hello. I'll post to other threads soon.
