So it has seem to have been a while since I have last update
the blog…. I guess my excuse it that I just didn’t have the time. I would like
to say that I didn’t have it because I was having the best time of my life.
Well that is just not the reason. 2013 will have to go down as one of the worst
years of my life and 2014 so far hasn’t been bad, just very very very eventful.
There is no way that I will ever be able to make up all the things that have
happen in the last year and a half so I am thinking that I will just start
where I am at now. Well maybe just a little bit of catching up :)
Derick is home now! Whoot whoot!! Life has definitely
changed AGAIN, but I am learning, and not very gracefully, that this is going
to be the norm for a while. After his month and a half off, he is now back to
work at FGCU. A couple of weeks ago he
began his drills for officer candidate school (OCS.) He is will be reporting to
that once a month (ish) for the next 14 months (ish.) This is nice because it
is only 3-5 days a month (just as his normal drills would have been,) the only
that is not so good is his drive. After
he is complete with his training, he will have to go to school for whatever job
he is going to be put into. That is going to be more of an extended period of
time….yep, not looking forward to that, or even trying not to think about it.
O’lena is doing well. She turned 4 and has become a royal
princess. She loves to play dress up and with her princess and Barbie dolls. She
is starting to learn how to write her name and she recognized most of her
letters. Right now she has really picked up an interest in the calendar. She is
trying to put together how yesterday, tomorrow, and today relate and enjoy
knowing when big events are going to happen.
As for me….I am feeling better (wasn’t doing so well there
for a bit.) I have had several big things happen to me that I have never
experienced before (stitches, dislocation of limbs,) but there will be more on
that later. There are several things that are happening that I am excited
about: I just started back with my
masters, got new callings at church, realized what I want to do with my job,
and will be getting a new pet. Oh yeah and my husband is home!! And no, I am
not pregnant…yes, we are trying….
Well that is about it for now. There is a lot more to write
about but I am really procrastinating with getting my paper done as normal. I
have to admit this does feel good. I am happy to be back.
