Thanks everybody for the encouragement I just kind of "do what I gotta do," however, sometimes that gets old. I will be very happy when H is home FOR GOOD in May! We're actually staying here for 4 more years when he gets back. That will be nice so we won't have any stress in a move right away or anything.

I just wanted to come over here and check out the countdown The wife and I are so excited and happy for you both.
I sensed a little doubt in your tone about the phone number thing...drop it kid !! Get them thoughts out of your mind. I get the feeling that he doesn't want to stray down that path again...he wants his little red head
You two have both come along way and it's really good to see.
Thanks for your input on our situations over on SSM. I hope once this countdown is done, that we still continue to hear from you.
Oh, yeah, I'm not going anywhere. We have this countdown, then the countdown to him coming home from good and then that's when the real work is going to start Looking forward to it though!

Just scheduled us at that B&B. It's in a small town about an hour from us. It has a fireplace and is out in the country w/ a cute little deck, etc. Supposedly wildlife running around. I'm so excited. I was trying to figure out if I should "give" it to him as a Christmas present or send him a neat little invitation now. I think I've decided to send him something now so we can both look forward to it.

I don't know Red...I was kind of thinking of that matching comforter with the cami and shorts out fit you talked about. Send him an invitation with directions and be there waiting for that little game of...what did you call it?..."Find Red in the Bed"
Good for you guys !!! Brought a smile to my face today, thanks !

Ok, so I was ironing my clothes for work this a.m. and started thinking about how H and I ended up together and decided I was going to share my story w/ you all & journal it.
At 26 years of age, I had just been dumped by my fiance & boyfriend of 4 years. I had been a legal secretary since I was 18. I decided that was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life and really didn't have any firm ties to keep me in WA State. I decided to join the Air Force.
So, at 26, I went through basic military training in San Antonio TX. H and I were in "brother & sister" flights. Of course, romance is the last thing on your mind at that point, so I thought nothing of any of the "boys" there. The first convo that H and I ever had was close the end of our 6 wks there and we were waiting in line to get our laundry. He said he was so busy, he hadn't had time to even take a sh*t and I said, well, yeah, I haven't shaved my legs the entire 6 wks we've been here. NICE
Anyway, so we both ended up in Monterey CA for training and became best, best friends. He was like a brother to me -- bugged the crap out of me half the time. We partied every weekend w/ a huge group of us and had a good old time. All of a sudden one night at the bar, I looked up and looked at H in his Wranglers & cowboy hat (and I must say that prior to this, any guy in Wranglers would NOT get a second look from me) and realized "Oh my gosh, I am madly in love w/ him." I truly had no idea up to that moment.
He insists I "planned" it the whole time and knew exactly what I was doing, however, like I said, I truly had no idea. We got married about a month later. Then, seriously, I got pregnant IMMEDIATELY. We decided I would get out of the AF so that we both wouldn't be active duty w/ a child.
Anyway, just thought I would share my love story with you all. During the whole D sitch, deep down I just knew that God had brought us together and that we were always meant to be together. Why in the world else would I have gone through basic training at 26????
