We’re sick, and he is gone!
First of all, I would like to point out that I NEVER get sick, I just don’t really have time for it! This week Mike is in the field, which basically means work is making him do hardcore camping about 10 mins away from home every night. This happens quite a bit, and I am used to it, but of course this week we all had to get sick, even me! Not super sick, but we all had colds and I had a really bad headache that would not and still has not gone away!
To make matters worse, Riley’s best friend’s family is being posted this year! They leave on Friday morning, so he is sad and wanting to spend as much time with him as he can, which I understand! They are wonderful people. Some of the only friends any of us has here since we moved and they are moving to where we came from!! We just switched places! It is going to be a hard week for the kids.
To try and make things easier, we are going BACK to my mom’s house so that the kids can be distracted by the fun and games that is Nannie and Poppie’s house!! Hopefully Mike can come too, but with this course he isn’t sure if he can get away, he needs to study. The army is so much like high school!! They have homework and tests and “field” trips, haha! Ok I must be tired because I really found that funny!
I should end this post for now, the sick kids need their sick mommy!

Being sick in the summer is no fun at all! I hope you guys are over this soon! It hasn’t hit is yet, but I’m sure it will!

This must be really tough! I married my husband after he was in the Army, he’s talked about going back but we’ve chosen not to. (He was in the US Army) I can’t imagine what it would be like . . . even now as he works shift work and has crazy hours, it’s still not the same.
