Hey guess what friends.... MY HUSBAND IS COMING HOME FROM AFGHANISTAN SOON!!!! some days i sit and think wow, i cannot believe this crazy life we've been thrown into. soon my husband will be home from a war torn country. he has done alot of good, training the Afghani police and military. he's coming home as the biggest hero in the world to me. i am so incredibly proud of him. 2 years ago this week, we had already decided upon the Marine Corps and were waiting for him to leave for bootcamp. we were getting ready for a big California trip with Kat and Zack.
This life is crazy. i live thousands of miles from ANYONE that i know. i live alone 60% of the year, yet i'm far from single. i don't even bat an eye when i hear explosions and gun shots out my window. in fact the sound of gunshots is comforting to me. i got to the gym with a hundred guys who could kill me with a finger. I hear the world military or Marine Corps on tv, and i'm instantly tuned in. when walking to work in the mornings, i usually have to stop to pay respect to the raising of the flag. squads of running Marines are a normal occurrence (a very pleasing to the eye occurrence.) i live in a state where daylights savings means nothing, except the change in uniform. i speak in acronym's and people understand what i am talking about. i live on a military base where everyone has to be awake at 4-5 am... YET the grocery store on base does not open till 10 am... ya makes sense huh. i can walk in the middle of the night, and not fear what might be lurking in the shadows... worst case scenario, it's a drunk Marine, and my dog will murder them if they try ANYTHING!
i'm a Military Wife. i am the wife of a United States Marine... i am proud of my husband, and all the guys in his unit... and i'm proud of the wives. not the wives who go out and party all the time, but the ones who honestly keep the house together. This week i'll be trying to get everything organized. starting to get everything in place for when Riley comes walking through that door with me. i want it all to be PERFECT. cause he deserves that. to have everything perfect and in it's place. now to find the motivation to get up and do it. i was ALMOST out the door to go to the gym, when one of the guys messaged me and said Rye was getting on... so here i am 90 minutes later.... looking at the stormy weather and deciding whether walking to the gym is a good option right now.... we'll see. Stand by for confirmation of gym trip!

Anytime I go out with my friends we don't even speak to a male, and if someone comes up to us trying to talk, we easily dismiss them. Get overself sweetheart. Not everyone who goes out, goes out to cheat. Obviously you are surrounding yourself with unfaithful, immoral, wives if thats all you seem to think. I know when me and my girlfriends are going out, it's to go out and enjoy each other, nothing more, but then to forget about everything going on around us. Just enjoying special girl time. You need to stop harping on others, get worry about yourself. So much for a good ol' Morman girl. You sure have an opinion about everything and everyone besides yourself. have you forgotten you aren't supposed to judge everyone, especially when you don't even know what you are talking about. lol. Get a hobby.
ReplyDeleteto whoever posted last, I think maybe you have some unresolved issues you need to work out if you took something like that so personally. Why get so defensive about something that doesnt apply to you if that is the case? It seems as though you have a problem with Sav or her posts and if thats the case then why read the blog in the first place? maybe you need to take a look at yourself and ask the question "why do i care about what someone i dont even like says?" or maybe you have some guilt you need to expose. who knows but instead of attacking on someone that writes her feelings in a blog that you go on your own free will to read why dont you just go on with your life and stop being so childish. Last time i checked this was America which ment peole have the right to say or write what they wish and although that does apply to you it doesnt mean you HAVE to take advantage of it. Why should Sav have to sensor her own blog just to make others happy? that seems a little silly dont you think? One more thing, if your gonna post something so rude on someones blog at least have the balls to put your name instead of putting anonymous.
ReplyDeleteYou must be so excited to have Riley coming home! I can't imagine what your life is like but sure enjoy reading about this adventure. You have a great attitude about it and I know it isn't easy. I'm sure proud of you!
ReplyDeleteDangit!! Samantha beat me to it!! Yeah - something so scathing under the title "anonymous" seems pretty cowardly. Kind of like ding-dong ditch or prank phone calls. Why am I mentioning such childish games?.. huh - perhaps it's because of the manner in which anonymous attempted to defend herself against an apparent blog attack that neither pointed to any one person nor anonymous. And as Samantha stated - if you don't like what Sav says why bother reading her blog? YOU seem to have quite a number of opinions, specifically about Sav... and by the way? Blogging IS a hobby...
ReplyDeleteSav, I love reading your blog!! I don't know how you spend 60% of the year by yourself. I seriously look up to you for it. You are so strong and a great wife!! I also love what everyone else had to say to anonymous...just to add to it, if you don't like what you read on Sav's blog then don't read it. If you don't agree with it, keep it to yourself. Sav has the right to post what she wants. Maybe you should go and watch Bambi and take Thumper's dad's advice, "if you can't say something nice, don't say nothin' at all." Sav was only posting what she thinks. And its not just military wives who are sometimes unfaithful. That comment that she had made could of applied to anyone!! For someone who's saying that Sav shouldn't be so fast to judge, maybe you should be looking in the mirror because that's EXACTLY what you are doing.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Sav, I love ya and I'm so glad that I know you!!
