Another day

So, called hubby to see if he was almost home...he won't be home til after 2100 (9:00 pm). I had no idea :( I made a wonderful salad for dinner...grilled chicken, strawberries, oranges, cranberries, almond slivers, and poppy seed dressing. Now I am worried that it wil be all soggy and nasty before he gets home for dinner :( Gladly I didn't put the croutons in!! At least they won't be soggy!! Also, hubby came home yesterday and asked me how I felt about public speaking (he already knew the answer). Of course iI ask why?? He is doing a Dave Ramsey FPU class on base and everyone wants to know how I keep 7 people full on 600 dollars a month. Well, this is one public speaking event that I will have to do. I am not really looking forward to this, but if I can help someone with their budget, then I feel like I have to, and I want to. I wish it wasn't in front of 40 people that I don't know, but I will "um" and sweat through it. This is something I think is important ski think this will make it a bit easier.

First Day

So, the hubby and I were talking about starting blogs. His is financial related (dwcoaches.blogspot.com) mine will be about everything and nothing!! I love the idea, hopefully someone else will also. Well, he is preparing for 1 year away from us and it's killing the kids and I. We have 2 daughters, ages 10 and 12, and 3 nieces that live with us also, ages 5, 9, and 14. Our girls are taking it harder than my sisters girls of course. My kids are used to having their dad around, but it's new for the nieces still. I'm not sure how this is all going to go for me. Will I be strong enough? Of course I will! I'm an Army wife and it's my job! Does that make me feel better...NO! Looking into sending the nieces home in order to lighten my load, but this is all dependent upon my sisters therapist sending me a letter concerning my sisters mental health. GOD, Please let her be better!! (this is me begging God right now) Well, I thought I had a lot to say tonight, but my mind is blank for now. Till next time...
