  • The redhead is back

    Hi ya'll~

    I've returned from spending some much-needed time with my boyfriend, who has FINALLY returned from his deployment. It was amazing, and...well.....there was kissing. A lot of it. And that was just in the first few minutes when I picked him up at the airport!!! heehee We also hiked and rock climbed and did all sorts of stuff that I wouldn't have done in my heavier days.

    And yes...he liked the new me. He kept telling me how gorgeous I was. But then again, he's spent almost a year sleeping in a tent with a bunch of guys...so that could have clouded his opinion. lol

    It looks like he's going to be turning into a Drill Instructor for a while, and he said he wants to drop about 20 pounds for it. He said he'd like to do Atkins with me! I figure I'll let him get settled in to his new place, then I'LL turn into an Atkins Drill Instructor on him! lol His new assignment is in California, so with me in Arizona we're still doing the long distance thing. But with cell phones and the miracle of text messages, we're in constant contact.

    So what's been going on here while I've been off happily reuniting?? Dawn, Bethany is BEAUTIFUL, and Jim, Miss Gabby is still in my thoughts. I see that Kent has turned red and that Dawn is now green again. I always thought that Kent's best color was silver lame. lol

                  Good for you! I was thinking of you here in Cleveland when one of our regiments returned. It was the 325 and they had lost 48 of their soldiers...20 in one week in AUgust. They made a REALLY big deal out of it, and even Amy Grant with her 3 wishes program was there.

                  I so appreciate our soldiers who put their lives on the line to spread freedom. And I also appreciate the women and the families who love and support them. You are the ones making it possible for them to continue! You are serving our country by supporting them on your own front lines!. ..so thank you too!

                      Welcome back, JoAnne!! I missed your smiling face. I'm so happy your BF is back in the USA and that you got to spend some time together. I remember when my hubby used to come home from assignments, its such a relief to have them home again.

                      Drill Sergeant? UH-OH, I used to live next door to a drill Sergeant. He'll need a lot of energy for that position. Its great that he is going to do Atkins, he'll need the boost.

                        Welcome back JoAnne. I am glad your bf made it home safely, and that he can devote his time to more peace time activities. Glad to see you around, and don't worry the silver lame` look will ride again. I hear Christmas is right around the corner.
