More of the Same

Well, Clint has to be in Ft. Bliss (El Paso) on October the 8th. I probably can not give out a bunch of info, but he will only be there about a week and then he heads of to the big sand box. Damn, I kind of hoped he would get some TRAINING. I mean he has been writing for the paper his entire military career. He hasn't been exposed to all the stuff the other soldiers get when they go out to the field or to NTC. I know he has a good head on his shoulders and he will be with well qualified people, but...........still makes me a little apprehensive. Clint's brother and sister-in-law finally got here last night. Oh boy, those kids of theirs are so cute. I love having all these kids around. I guess I am just a glutton for punishment. I just feel like....the more the merrier. I am going to stay here during Clint's deployment.

Holy Fucking Shit Batman

Guess what Clint got yesterday.....come on, guess..... My non deployable husband got orders to Iraq. Talk about a punch in the gut. I am not minimizing what all the spouses with deployed husbands and wives feel, I am just a bit freaked out because he was in a non deployable unit. He leaves beginning of October. Holy Shit. I am freaking out a bit. I know I will handle it just fine, I just was not mentally prepared for my husband to go to war. I am a preparer. I need time to get in the mindset and I can handle most anything. Holy Fucking Shit!!!! BBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Wow, we did not see this coming. He was supposed to get out in less then a year. HMMMMMMMM....... We really thought we were home free, so this is like a huge punch in the gut. I know we all will be fine, I just need some time to get used to the idea.

My Poor Baby

How sad. My dog is deaf. Poor poor Tanner. He has gone deaf. I am not sure if it is permanent or because of an ear infection. He also has a bald spot on each side of his ass. I didn't think Colorado had fleas, so I quit giving him his flea stuff. Boy am I stupid. Okay, no one need bother to agree.
