Just a Simple Life Around the Casa

Life is settling back into some what of a "normal" (what ever the hell that might be) for me since Sniper returned from the shitbox, oh I mean sandbox, oh I mean hell hole, oh f*ck it, since he came home from helping the Iraqi's gain there freedom and kicking some major Haji ass. Oohrah! He is still up in Washington enjoying his two youngest boys until this weekend. Tomorrow I am dropping off Bubba at the airport to join his dad and little brother's for the weekend. The four of them should have a wonderful time together. It's been a few years since the four of them have been together. As for me, the next few weeks are going to be crazy again. Oh what joy. Sniper coming back here for a few days, back down to Camp Pendleton for a few days, back up here for another two weeks and then the both of us at the end of the month going back down to Camp Pendleton. I will be staying almost a week with him. Just the two of us and oh ya, Wingman (luv ya too). Back to life as I knew it. Late nights or all nighters, drinking, good conversations and oh wait, I can't tell you the rest of where this was going, but you get it. I can't wait! Amongst all of this, I am still studying for my Series 7, spending some much needed "mommy" time with my munchkins and back to running. My ankles are doing better. I know I wasn't supposed to start running until September, but I feel fine. Do you hear that Sniper, I feel fine. I am taking it easy.....sorta. Remember "No Pain, No Gain" or "Pain is weakness leaving the body." I have pushed out my test until September 26th. I realized I am not ready, but getting there. The material is starting to actually sink in. It might have something to do with the fact of not worrying about the "next phone call" from Sniper in Iraq and what it will entail. Then again I am still worried about him. Just on a different level. It's nice to be back to the land of the "Oh my f*cking God how am I going to get through this shit." Uncle Jim, I can now drop and give you another 20 for procrastinating again on the studying. Off for a run, then it's study time for me..... dyzgoneby Sniper, I love you with all my heart. I promise to be careful.
