Busy, Busy, Busy

Well it's been a crazy week! We finally got all of our households goods pack up, which took three days full of problems. After getting everything out of the house we had to paint and get it deep cleaned. Monday we turned the house back over. Friday was my last day of work at the Firehouse and I had an award ceremony where I got a letter of appreciation, the letter was really nice. Friday evening Leah took the train in from New York to spend the weekend with us and we did karaoke Friday night with some friends of ours. Our friend Jason made Mike a home made lightstaber, I have to admit it was so cool that I want one. I left for Michigan on Monday and will be there for a week. Mike and I fly out to San Juan on the 29th and we will be living in a hotel for up to 60 days. It's been a stressful month trying to get everything done but it will be worth it once we get there.

The Craziness of the road ahead.

Well welcome to our blog. I hope to update this blog as much as possible. Hopefully this will give our friends and family a view of military life and our crazy life.

TGIF! This week week has been crazy! We started the week thinking we would be leaving for Washington DC this evening, with our good friends Kate & Q Vanvleck. But shit happens especially when you're in the Military. Q had duty tonight and couldn't trade so the Vanvleck's are leaving tomorrow and staying through till Monday. We can't join cause Mike and I both have to work Monday. But instead of DC my good friend Moentman, whom I know from boot camp, is coming out for the weekend and we will be spending Saturday with the Miles'.

Well as you all well know we are moving to Puerto Rico. All the paperwork for the move is finally done. Got our plane tickets booked we leave for Puerto Rico July 29th in the am. The moving truck was suppose to pick up our household goods this Wednesday but it now got pushed back to the following Monday and I learned that it will be hotel living in Puerto Rico for anywhere from 45 to 60 days. This move is a pain in the ass but I am sure once we get settled in it will be worth it.

Well I only have 5 more working days, thank God! I sold Mike's bike on Craigslist today so we are $50 richer and I found out that they are having an awards ceremony at work for me before I leave. Hmm I wonder what award I'm getting? Do they have a ribbon for doormat of the year?
