Delayed again.... WTF!

Oh my gosh! Josh is delayed again! What the hell! I want my husband back! He was delayed once because of the power outage, again because the movers couldn’t come sooner, then housing, now there is a water leak and its delaying him again, AND he still has to get his health check up before he checks out of the corps.

Josh was supposed to leave, like on the road, coming to Colorado leaving. I miss him so much, and I know Ryanna misses him too. We are thinking he will be in California for another week…

I just want him back in my arms. I know it’s not like he is deployed or in the field or anything, he is safe and sound. But I still miss him.

I can’t wait tell your home baby!

Moving, & the rents return.

So it’s moving day. TMO is at the house packing all of our stuff into boxes and stalking it in a huge truck to drive across country and move into a storage unit.

Well that was a mouth full. Say that five times fast.

Anyway, I’m kind of nervous because I’m not there and I can’t deviate what goes where. I know Josh is fully capable and he has things under control, but I still panic. It’s a big deal, you know, that we are moving, and I’m not even there. I just need to relax and hang out with my kiddo. I’m sure everything will be fine.

Oh, and I forgot, I need to call Josh and make sure he grabs Ryanna’s coat, it’s starting to get cold here in Colorado. I’m excited to be going to Pueblo in a few days. I love my mom’s but its time I spend some time with Josh’s family. I know they want to see little Ryanna.

Speaking of my mom, she and Alan get back tomorrow night. I’m glad they were able to spend time with my grandma but I must say that I’m a bit nervous for them to come back. Blake has gone above and beyond this weekend and I feel like Shane or I won’t get any credit. I don’t think Blake would be that way, but I don’t want the parents thinking we just sat around and let Blake do all the work.

Anyway, I think that’s it for now. Later ya’ll.

Loneliness after a loved ones passing

So about a month ago my grandpa-Irvin died, and we were all devastated. My Grandma didn’t even get the chance to morn, everyone swarmed the house and she wound up taking care of them. I wasn’t able to go and help her but my mom and her new husband, Alan, is.

I know, I know, “Why are they going now” you ask? Well, it’s actually better. If they had before they really wouldn’t have been able to be there for her. The chaos would have gotten the better of the whole situation. At least now, they will have the opportunity to spend some quality time with her. Something she needs. The friends and family that visited after Grandpa’s passing helped a lot, and now no one is there; she just needs the company.

But anyway, They leave tomorrow and it will just be, both my brothers, Shane and Blake, and myself. I am happy we all get the chance to hang out and bond after years of being a part. I hope I will get to see a few friends, given permission that is. This weekend will be good for everyone.

I miss my Grandpa, he was a smart, sweet, and a loving man. I am sad he passed, but at least he is a better place and no longer in pain. I love you Grandma and I wish I could be there for you right now. I am just happy my Mom and Dad will get to be there.

<3

I love you, Grandpa. You are missed.

No Power in California...

Um, so the power went out in part of California, Arizona and Mexico. None of my friends and family there has any power in California, at all. How bizarre is that?

Josh, my husband, called me and explained what had happened! I guess one of the workers, working on a transformer in the San Diego, blew and—zip, no power! Josh had to put all the food he could, on ice and cook and eat some of it. Josh said that the house is eerie and it freaks him out. I would be creeped out too. I don’t like darkness, I admit, I spook very easily!

I guess the power won’t be on until late tomorrow night. I’m not really that worried, but I just want everyone safe and sound. I miss Josh so much and I want him home. 

I love you, Baby.

Be safe!

Update: Power was renewed later that night and all is well. Thank goodness!

Ah, life is good!

So, oh my gosh. These last few weeks have been so busy! My mother married an amazing man on September 3rd, and the ceremony was beautiful. My husband, my daughter and I are all in the process of moving from California to Colorado, and then to where ever the Army sends us. It’s been crazy but fun!

I flew from LAX to DIA and we, Ryanna and I, have been staying at my mothers. My new brother is amazing and I was so happy to have finally met him! Alan is amazing as well, and life is finally taking a turn for the better, for everyone involved. I can’t even express into words how beautiful my mother looked on their wedding day! The ceremony, as I’ve said, was amazing and perfect! Our pastor was funny and helping relieve some of those happy tears.

I couldn’t stop crying, and neither could most of the people at the wedding. Even after words we all were playing and parting. The reception was at Platte River Bar and Grill, and we had a whole deck all to ourselves! Bee Dee and her partner Jan, made it all the way from San Antonio, Texas, along with Pam and a few other close friends.

There was even an after party at the Grizzly Rose, a very popular country western bar and dance hall. That went on tell about 1:30am, and the next morning we were all tired and in ‘hang out at home’ mode.

As for the move, Josh and I are dealing with, it’s running a bit behind. He won’t even be here next weekend like we planned. Ryanna and I both miss him, and I hope we get to Skype tonight so we can see each other, and Ryanna will get to see her daddy. I honestly wish I could be there to help with all the work that goes into a move, but I am happy to say that TMO is moving us for free and storing our stuff for no cost.

I love my life and the new people in my growing family!

Ah! Life is good!
