So I haven't been here in a very long time. Both sons have now been overseas. Daron first went to Iraq and came home safely. (Thank God!) Christopher went to Afghanistan for 7 months and he is home safely now as well. Daron has now left again for overseas, just before Christmas. Seems the boys are always coming and going, but thankfully one has been close to home while the other is away. That would be very hard to deal with. Christmas was good despite Daron being away. Christopher is coming home for a week of leave and I'm excited. He is currently stationed in Georgia, which isn't too far away but its not just a skip down the road either.
My New Year resolutions are to stay better connected with family and friends, and to loose a bit of weight.We have bought a trailer at the beach close to Southport, and it needs a bit of work so maybe that will help me to do something constructive with my time. Daron will be taking R&R time around the July 4th celebration, and we plan to stay there for a week, then our home for week. I am looking forward to that, as the whole family will be together. (YAY!!!)
We have taken on looking after Daron's dog while he is away and let me tell you she is a pistol. Never have I saw a dog with so much energy. Wish we could recycle her energy for electricity. lol.
Many of my friends and people I know has had to deal with alot of life changing events. Some couldn't be helped while others were just waiting to happen. Things like this make you really stop and look at your own life, and make you strive to be such a better person. I have always wore my heart on my sleeve, and have been as honest as I know how to be. Looking at others can really make you thankful for your own life. I guess this is enough ramblings for now. I will try hard to come back and update regularly. May everyone be blessed!
