Tapping my foot....

Well Zaylee Ann and I are at Sheppard AFB, trying to help the process of getting Brian out of here move along a bit faster....but to little avail. The time keeps getting added for one reason or another which only brings with it more heartache at the realization that while we may get to spend a few hours a day with Brian it still means we have to say goodbye soon because the chances of me going with Brian are slim to none. While the paperwork needed for Brian to leave is done - mine could still take 2 months, meaning no Thanksgiving or Christmas together, and possibly my birthday the way things are going. It is possible it may only be a short time before I get to go to England - but Brian was supposed to leave two weeks ago....so I have no thought of getting my hopes up. Once my passport arrives I can apply for a visa which will take anywhere from 14-45 days...and they say count on the 45 days, after I have my visa I have to wait on the Air Force to book me a flight. So while it is great to see Brian the 3ish hours a day it is also nerve racking - first because Zaylee doesn't know him so she is a terror every night - and I get no sleep. It is getting easier, but it is a slow process and I DREAD having to go through it again once we finally get to England. Second because even though I enjoy this time with Brian I can't stand to see his face when we talk about having to be apart longer - and frankly it hurts us both when people act the way they have been acting. My aunt for instance has sent me two threathening e-mails about what will happen if she doesn't get her way - and how it's unfair that I am going to be separated from my family for years and won't spend more time with her or my grandmother. Okay first off my aunt and I have NEVER really gotten along, and while I love my family dearly it frankly doesn't matter that I will be spending the next few years of my life with Brian...I was kind of planning to spend the rest of my life with him and it's weird that people think that I should wait to be with him or he should wait to be with me just because of what they want - Brian and I are married and um...doesn't every other person in both of our families spend their time with their spouse? We spend 7 months apart having more of a relationship with our phones then with each other and now everyone has a big hoo-ha over us choosing each other over them....bla. Oh and she thought she could scare me is what is such a hoot - my aunt threatened me with bodily harm if I didn't let her do what she wanted with Zaylee - first off Zaylee has never been discussed and second....who does that? She hasn't talked to me in 3 years and she sends me an e-mail about what will and won't happen with my family....I swear some people drink some strange water. Oh well - I still haven't gotten Brian's phone working...it seems to keep slipping further down the lists of must do things....hopefully by the end of this week I will have that taken care of - but I'm not sure so we will let you know when he does have a phone.

In other news I've been seriously considering not finishing my Masters....so prayer for that decision would be appreciated as I'm kind of lost as to where to go next.

Hope everyone is having a good week!

Tech School is coming to an end

So its almost time for me to graduate but things haven't been easy in recent weeks. first i got my orders and they did not include meredith and zaylee so i put in for an amendment which were supposed to be back in 3 days or so but its been more than a week. so i talked to them and found out that it may take longer because of things that shou8dl have already been done so i'm a little irritated that things are messed up. if i don't get my orders back in a timely fashion i won't be able to leave the base on time which will irritate me even more because its their fault that i'm not able to leave on time. all of this permaanant change of station (pcs) out processing is a bit stressful so i'm stressing out. other than pcsing nothing much is new school is pretty easy i have an avg of 95 or so and will be taking my last test this week the next two weeks will be on the flight line and watching movies pretty easy stuff anyway thats about all there is for now

We have legwarmers!

Ug what a week! Brian and I are spent, and pretty much done with everything and everyone - this move just may kill us.
We have to turn in the paperwork with our travel plans...yes the Air Force has to approve them, so come Monday plans cannot be changed - weird. In any case I'm not going to go pick up Brian anymore - instead he is flying into Phoenix sometime Tuesday or Wednesday and then I'm going down Friday and staying till Sunday I believe. My parents would like to see Brian, so if we leave Sunday after church we could be able to see them - but we may have to skip it - who knows...just bla on this whole thing. We also found out we HAVE to go to Wisconsin, because the AF will only ship our stuff from the town we were in when we signed up - so we will be taking a trailer with our stuff in it back to WI.
Zaylee hates people - holy crap. I've discovered that ANYTIME I go ANYWHERE and ANYONE touches her shes fine with it - but that night she is a terror. For instance Monday was the doctor and she was horrible that night, Wednesday I went out and people saw her but no one touched her...she was fine that night. Last night I went to potluck and everyone touched her even though I wouldn't let anyone hold her and she was a terror again. This trend just seems to keep playing itself over and over....blah.
I started making legwarmers for Zaylee simply because I can't afford to buy them - it's pretty nice because they cost MAYBE two dollars to make them when buying them is 8-12 plus shipping ..no thanks! Somedays I'm down to only using a diaper a day but that's because Zaylee doesn't wear pants or skirts....and somedays she doesn't even wear a cloth diaper so legwarmers are a huge help :)
