Beaches aren't the same as Mountains...



The Hubs thinks he's kinda artsy... ;) He got all emo and such when we were at the beach. 

The dogs have never seen water before (besides the dreaded bath..) and it turned out
differently then I expected.. Gunner (our husky) ended up loving it... Running in and playing with the water. but Chemo (our lab) either wanted nothing to do with it, or was trying to attack it. 

Florida is beautiful Im just kinda home sick. The sister is prego and i can't go to any of her appointments and my family is so far away. 
BUT... I went out last night with this 'spouses' group thing... It was fun... Im not used to being with only women for that long, but they were fun. I'm learning a lot with the being a spouse and not active duty any more... Although it seems some of these women think that they served and flew Pave Low. THAT is something I just do not understand. 

I miss my girls in ABQ!!!! Between work and my (awesome spouse) friends, I am out some really good company.

New Place, New Problems

The last night I had in my own bed was Jan 4th... Then it was on to a hotel, on to another one and three more... Now we are in a home that is not mine, surrounded by things that do not belong to me in a town that is new and far away from my family and friends... Im trying to smile and be ok and make the most out of it, but when you can't have anything to distract you from what is lacking it is hard... But I guess this is what I signed up for so maybe I should just buck up and get over it...

We had fun on the way here... Dallas was awesome... I got to bungee jump and get back to being the beer buddy my husband has missed... New Orleans was an experience... Walking around the french quarter with beer in my hand was AWESOME!!! It was SOOO cold... A girl slipped a shot of rum in my coffee, I learned not to talk to anyone cause the next thing you know he's on his knees shining your shoes and wants twenty bucks, Don't buy tickets on line for a tour cause they won't show up...

I went to the east coast for the first time... The beach is beautiful but its not my mountains...

Here we go Florida... I hope you are good to me.
