Hit me baby, one more time

soooooo, i'm pretty much done with life at the moment.

we've gotten our PDS (permanent duty station)... and remember how excited i was to FINALLY be stationed... well ALL OF THAT EXCITEMENT HAS FADED!!! well maybe not all of it. but seriously... in 14 days my husband will be all the way done with training....

wow guys, lets take a moment and let this sink in... wasn't it just like yesterday that he left for bootcamp. man oh man, time DRAGS on... but then you look back and go, HOLY CRAP IT'S BEEN ALMOST 1/2 A YEAR!

ok back to my blog. so he'll be done with training and we'll be stationed. that means i have 13 days well kinda like 12 cause his grad day doesn't count, and today is basically over. so 12 days to find a place and start the moving process. i really wish i was like a REAL trophy wife, not the pretend trophy wife i am. cause if i was a REAL trophy wife, i'd hire someone else to do all this bullcrap for me. but alas... no hired help for Mrs. Gardiner. now some of you are probably feeling bad for me cause i am having to do this without my husband.... DON'T! if he were here... i'd still be in the exact same position i am in now. except he'd complain that i was on the computer waaaaay too much. well... seeing as i'm not in the area i'll be living, i pretty much have to plan our new life from my computer. goodness.... i forgot how much moving sucks!

i've picked out a few places i'm going to call on this weekend. i just have to talk to Rye about commuting, and at least RUN the places past him... so he doesn't feel completely left out :) plus he's super smart so he'll probably look at one of my fav picks and tell me a HUGE reason why we can't live there. it pisses me off when he shatters my dreams like that. but it's always good in the long run.

so i'm back in square one, trying to find a place to live, to start a new life. and can i just say how excited i am to be able to have Rye back... i mean we can sit on the couch, eat salads, and complain about our life. that we want a bigger tv, that i want my new mac, we don't have a bed but just our mattress and box spring, we need a new couch. and because our old place had a bar we just used bar stools... so we don't have a table and chairs... and we'll probably both get frustrated the first few weeks trying to figure everything out.

but as always, i'm hopeful. i KNOW that we made the right choice for us. this is where we are supposed to be. i am so utterly in love with him. and i knew that before this whole experience, but i have an even greater appreciation for what we have. the trust that we share, and the bonds that we have made. i'll quit gushing now. but watch out for pictures of the move coming up soon here... ugh... so little time!
