I really don't know why I am so surprised by people's stupidity but sometimes I just find it completely overwhelming. One of my neighbors decided to move home because her husband was deployed to Iraq and she is pregnant and also has a 5 month old son.(Not the stupid part yet) She saw her young husband off and then decided it would be a "good idea" to go ahead and leave, giving power of attorney to one of her friends. This POA is to enable this "friend" to clear housing for her. The part I find completely ridiculous is that she has only known this girl for a few months and it can be a pricey venture clearing military housing. Why in the hell would you leave someone you hardly know in charge of that. Here at Ft Carson you have to clean your quarters (pain in the ass to do yourself and almost $300 to pay to have it done), have your carpets professionally cleaned ($150), and then replace any thing that cannot be fixed (ie...stained carpet, bent blinds, etc...). Why in the hell would you ask someone you REALLY DON'T know to handle that. I hope she doesn't get screwed!!!! I think I would have just stayed the few extra weeks without my husband and handled my business myself. I guess that is just me.
This will be my first blog. I am copying the big brother. Seems like I did that a lot growing up. A little background first. I am the only girl in a family of three kids. We are all grown with our own children and still (even being almost 31) that weirds me out. When did we become adults and what exactly does that mean. We still tease,poke, and prod each other. The funny thing? Now it feels like there is so much love behind it. It seems like we all except each other for our similarities and our differences. Maybe that is what makes us adults. Who knows .
