The "high road"
I was on my way home from working out this morning and started thinking about why it's so hard for people to take the "high road" When I'm talking on this blog, I'm talking just as much to myself as I am anyone who this might hit home to. It honestly is so much easier to say hurtful, mean things than it is to say nice, encouraging, words! That's pretty crazy isn't it?!? I think so! This is something I'm totally guilty of especially with people that I'm really close to! The problem for me is that a lot of time I do things in advance to eliminate getting hurt worse! I guess I don't have enough faith in people, which is also sad! I guess the challenge for myself is to try and do the right thing even if it kills me, and it might kill me :)
This time home has been full of challenges and such a learning experience. Part of me wishes I never would have moved home this deployment, but the other part is glad for the lessons I've learned so far. It's been an eye opening experience in so many ways. It sucks, but I guess better to learn some of these lessons now than any later down the road?!?
Have a good day peeps!!

Thanks a bunch!!
I had to get a TB Test today.....YUCK! I didn't care for that much. I can get my blood taken all day long, but when it's lower in your arm like that.....I don't like that one bit.
I talked to Mo-bear a couple hours ago, he just got off the hill. He is going to be out the majority of the time that he's off the hill this time so keep him in your prayers. He was really sick right before he went up, but they gave him a z-pack and he's feelin good now. He told me that he got a package from the Willett's and a card from Nancheeee!! He was very stoked! I just really want to thank all of our fam and friends that have been soooo supportive through this deployment. The love has been amazing!! Even the community has played a big part in sending things over. The guys love getting things, but even just the cards and letters are sooooo helpful and appreciated. I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so kind!!
Bootcamp: it's kicken my butt in gear and I LOVE it!!! I really didn't think I would like it this much. I'm really hurting, but it feels great. I haven't felt this sort of pain since volleyball. I heart it!! We'll see if I feel the same this time next week though ;)
I'm looking forward to tomorrow....Natasha is watching the kiddos for me and I'm going to go spend some sissy time with Fritts!! I'm really looking forward to having some no-kid time with her. We don't get to do that a lot so I'm really excited. I'm so blessed to have such a great little sister! I feel sad that Gracie isn't going to have a sister to share life with, but not sad enough to have another one :) I'm kiddin...really though...She can drive me crazy, but she really is one of my bestest friends!!
Enough random talk for now......
peace out!

I'm Tired!
Today was officially my first day of "boot camp" It's from 5:30-6:30 am, Monday-Friday. I was really nervous going this morning, but I pulled through. I'm going to be hurting tomorrow that's for sure! I'm trying to get ready for our Hawaii trip!! Finallyyyyyy, Mo and I are going to be able to get away and take a trip together! It's been a long time coming, and we are so looking forward to it.
Since I was up bright and early this morning, I went and dropped off Gracie's CCS paperwork first thing. Gracie had an Easter party at school today. Her and Tanner came home on cloud 9, they had such a great day. It's going to be a fun week for all the kids. There is so much fun stuff planned at school, church, and in the area! They are going to have a blast. It's fun to watch them get all excited over the Holidays :)
Alrighty, I'm SUPER tired and I have to get up at 4:45 tomorrow so I better keep it short.
lots of love....
