Thinking

So my sister and I were having a conversation about children. All of my female cousins have popped out a child except me. on ALL sides of the family. is that wrong? I dont want kids anytime soon but I have been getting so much pressure from everyone including my husband about having a child. I DO NOT WANT A CHILD anytime soon. How hard is that to understand? I have a life of school still ahead of me. I have been in college for 6 whole years already and I have done just fine without a lil Gonzo crawling around. Im tired of taking everyones BS on having a child.

FMF!!!!!

My amazingly super smart, talented husband passed his FMF exam portion today!!!!

Thats it today!


so proud of my husband!

that stupid darn superbowl

I dont see why people make such a huge overrated deal when it comes to sports, generally the retarded supebowl. I guess it just makes me so mad when I see die had fans go all out for a couple of hours of a stupid ball being thrown around. I dont get it? why are people that way when it comes to football? It breaks me heart to see so many lost people across the world get crazy like that for a game.. Just think of this for a moment. could you possibly begin to imagine people getting like that for God and for church? as much as I would love to say that could be the case, reality of it is that will never happen. People everyday are loosing their souls because of the consquences people make. but I just wish they would really take a look into their lives and try to find some salvation. It would be so great to see an arena filled like that and pumped for Christ that way. but that'll never happen.

anyways, I guess I am done venting. I never said that there is anything wrong with people enjoying a nice game and stuff. but how bout we try harder to be that way for God. Is that wrong?

Oh joy. the military

Great, never would have I thought that Derek would have to face another deployment until last night. currently Derek is in Bridgeport and his stupid chief keeps questioning all the sr line guys about extending for afghanistan, which is a buncha BS if you ask me. 3/5 isnt supposed to be heading out until oct/now. Derek gets out in Dec. Dec 10th to be exact. Well come last night Derek advised me that his chief is going to make every attempt possible to get the guys in another battalion who is onward to deploy for a spring deployment. if you ask me its crap and a half. Derek isnt too happy about this. and the bad thing about all of this is me and D have been planning on what we have lined up for our civi life..

not too much that my mind is dwelling on..

another one bites the dust.

So today marks the 48ish hours until I will see my husband again. I havent posted on this thing for qiute sometime. I have been so busy with school work its been insane. MY instructor is a "harvard" grad and she feels the need to put us through hell because she just can. BS. oh well, anyways I have one more week of this nonsense.

Not really much to update except that I am ready to have derek home now. :)

Prayer Prayer Prayer.

So news is with the process with purchasing our first home.

We've been contacted by the VA and the process to getting the first step done is out of the way. WE needed to fill out the Va certificate of eligibility. Done that. check.

Now were getting pre-approved on an amount.. and to make things more exciting I have found a house that I absolutely loved the moment I saw it. 4 beds, 3 baths. huge kitchen, 3-car garage. marble counter tops in the kitchen along with tile and carpeting in the rooms. witha GRASS backyard. yay! and its actually UNDER our budget.. So Derek has yet to see it but hopefully he will love it as much as I do.. actually I think he will, because his precious wife found it for cheaper than what we initially decided on. Cant wait to go and see it.. since its located in Zona, mom and dad are gonna head out to go see it. what I like most about the property is that it is literally a hop, skip and a jump away from my sissys house. which means we can have the baby on whenever we'd like.. ALSO its less than 5 mins from mom and dad.. metophorically speaking-we could all see each other daily.

We are standing and beleiving God for his promises and just believing in Him.

anyways more updates to follow.

Sick

I dont know why in the heck I am always getting sick. I think I have a bad immune system or somthing.. If its not the asthma then its a headache, if its not the head, its the tummmy. list goes on and on. Me and Derek were talking the other day about pregnancy and he brought up a good point. How am I going to survive a pregnancy with being sick all the time? hahaha I take like 5 different meds for my asthma, headaches and allergies.. Its crazy.. and on top of that I cant have a lil body growing in me with my asthma.. haha.. now I am too scared to get pregnant and have a baby..

Well today in the OC it is in fact raining.. all day actually. and this time last year Derek left overseas and about the first two and half months of deployment it rained and rained. so now its raining again somemore.. crazy. I just love rain. but I do have douchebag drivers who dont know how to flow with the trafffic and rain.
Oh well I guess.

Derek leaves for Bridgeport in T-minus 2 and a half days. sucky, I wrote on my work calender a countdown of when he comes back.. 22 days starting on Jan 16 and ending Feb 07...

Today I think I have come to realize that I need an intervention. I admire shoes. Shoes represent people. Shoes have originality. Shoes have style. Shoes show who you are as a person. Shoes make you. And I think I have come to realize that I need to part from some of the shoes that I own. I own quite a few shoes and yesterday there was an incident.

Yesterday I was running late.. and in a hurry I totally forgot to turn on my closet light as I was running out of the house, and I totally grabbed two left black heels to work yesterday morning. :~(. yes, two left black heels. quite embarassing I might add. I called someone and they told me they would let my manager know. I was 27 minutes late.. hahaha.. But I really think I need to part. I dont know if I can do that though.

Well good news is i wore flats to work

Brideport Training.

So, here we go again Marine Corps. Derek leaves on Saturday for Bridgeport training. for those of you civis out there, Brideport is located in the Sierra Nevada mountains.. Mountain Warfare Training to be exact. He will be gone a total of 22 days. yes I did 184 days, but still c'mon man. My husband is leaving me to go freeze his face off. The thing about this is they issued him special "snow" gear. and it is quite funny looking. He was issued these snow boots. they actually look about 20 inches long.. and they look like Mickey Mousse shoes.. they are WHITE boots at that! hahaha. We are slowly getting ready for this training, as he departs on Sat early monrning. Im gonna miss him. but I have to keep reminding myself its for a short time ~;). Thing about the Marines and Navy is they get the job done.. they arent like the Army, Army trains and trains forever and ever and they still dont get their training down. Airforce, Dereks dad is AF retired. wait, what does AF do? just kidding just kidding. :) dont take offense to that anyone, AF protects our skies.

Thats it for now.

The Start of a New Year.

After being married to the man that I admire with my whole heart is still learning a grip load of stuff about me.. since he was gone for the majority of last year... we werent here to "know know" each other or we just forgot. lol either way. Just wanted to say that 2010 is going to be the best year for us. in officially in 11 months we are out of the military life. For Good. and I cant wait to move back to Arizona and start my own family. :) Is it weird planning in your mind how you picture your future house to be? or how you want your walls painted and how you want to decorate each room? well, I do! there is nothing wrong in my opinion with speaking LIFE into your life. :) my momma taught me that.


Anyways. update on our baby girl. Mariah Adrielle is doing Fabulous. She is now officially at 13 pounds.. and yes, she is only 2 weeks old.. shes our little monster.. mom is always mooing. :) here is a picture of her.
