Grateful Friday

Friday, February 12th, 2010

1. Jacey, she is such a sweet kid. She was absolutely AMAZING through all the trials yesterday. I guess we are doing *something* right.

2. We finally made it to San Antonio safe and sound AND in time for graduation.

3. Target had everything I needed this morning to shower and have “graduation” wear.

4. Our luggage finally made it to San Antonio this evening.

5. Air Force. While there are days that I would give almost anything to not be a military spouse, it truly has been a adventurous, fulfilling life. I am anxious to begin this next half of our career (yes, I said *our*, the families do it too) and see what it has in store for us.

2 years.

By the time you read this, hopefully I’ll be in the air on my way to Texas to see Bryan. Of course, this is barring any major snowfall that is currently expected in Dallas (major for Texas anyway). One flight of mine has already been canceled, so we had to change flights. We shall see.

Today is the 2 year anniversary of my CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia) diagnosis. Still not sure some days how I feel about it and other days it doesn’t even cross my mind. Bryan asked me the other day, what you get someone on this type of anniversary and I figure nothing. It is not a landmark event in my book, although I suppose it should be. I have lived 2 years with a terminal illness and my current prognosis is good.

So, can I take back that reply of nothing?!

I would like a full body massage while laying on a beach in Hawaii, sipping some fruity drink. Sound good? Worthy of this anniversary?

I think so :).

1. 6 more days till I see Bryan!

2. My knee feels better and has made it through 2 workouts with no more issues.

3. Umbrellas, because all it does is rain around here. Sunshine state…whatever!

4. New clothes.

5. The nap I am going to take as soon as I hit publish and get a shower :).

7 days.

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Well, we are in the single digits now. Yes, I know we were *technically* there 2 days ago, but I have been too tired to sit down and attempt a coherent blog post. Only 7 more days, till we fly to San Antonio to spend a week with Bryan and see his UAS BSOC graduation where he gets his wings. Oh, sorry, it is RPV BSOC now. Sigh. You know the military, the ONLY constant is change.

We fly in Thursday evening and graduation is Friday. Then Saturday morning, we’ll meet my Mom halfway and she will have Jacey till Monday evening. Can you say alone time after a month apart ;). We are going to hit The Melting Pot on Saturday for an early V-Day dinner (I didn’t like the V-Day menu and that is all they are serving on the 14th), mariachi mass on Sunday at Mission San José, the rodeo and Trace Adkins on Tuesday and then we’ll celebrate Bryan’s birthday on Wednesday (it is on the 20th but we won’t be there). Oh, and don’t forget REAL Mexican food…yum! We fly back home on Thursday, the 18th and while J goes back to school that Friday, I don’t go back to work till Monday, the 22nd. Woohoo! Can you tell Jacey is excited too?!

Bryan is doing well in his 1U0X1 training. He has made a 97.5, 95 and 92.5 on his tests so far and only has one more on the 12th. Poor guy is so ready to be done though and he still has one more class to go after this one, plus 3 months of FTU once we move. They definitely never said retraining was fast…LOL! He is excited though, because they went last week and got sized for their flight suits (they get to start wearing them as soon as they graduate this first class) and yesterday, he got his name badge in.

Still no word on orders though. Everyone else in the class got them this past Monday, except 4 people and of course we have to be one of those 4. It’s really a no brainer, there is only one base option for us medically but it would be nice to have the *official* word. They plan to call the chief tomorrow and find out what the hold up is, since it is not normal for some to get them and not all. We shall see.

Anyway, I’d better head to bed. Even though I don’t have to work tomorrow, I do have to get up with Jacey and then go get my allergy shots, hit the gym (I really wanted to run outside but the rain won’t allow that) and the commissary for a few things to get us through the next few days till we fly out.
