I Have a Date!!!

....With my kindle. Ha Ha. C is in Georgia with his family and I'm at home with mine. In fact I've been living at home since the end of last September.

For six whole months I've been living with good old pain in the *** Mom and Dad. JK .While I'm grateful to be living rent free... moving back home after being out on your own sucks. Like sucks big time! My Mom and I are too much alike.

I miss my own space....

And I might be slightly jealous of C moving to his new place, since I decided not to move in together again just yet. But hey it will all work out, at least I can get away on the weekends.

Have any of you ladies ever had to stay at home again? Please tell me I'm not alone.

C's Home...Continued.

Continued....


So I arrived at the hotel checked and then everything hit me at once. C was back, like really back in the states and I was going to be seeing him in a few moments. I started to get nervous....


So the hour wait comes and goes and C is still not here. I'm getting more anxious and annoyed at the same time. I call C and he says he's downstairs. Awesome! So I wait some more and another thirty minutes go by. I call C again, he tells me he's on his way and that he went to the wrong hotel!!! Really??? Who does that evidently C who went to the Marriott and not the J.W. Marriott. 


At this point my nervousness has reached an all time high. I couldn't sit still, I couldn't focus on TV, I kept checking the peep hole and of course he still hadn't arrived. Then finally I hear the door start to open and there he is in person. 


I think we just stood there with our arms locked around each other for a good five minutes. He was home again and it felt like he never left. All was right again. 

I'm back!!!!!!

Hello. Sorry I was so lazy busy and have not been a good blogger. The past month or so has been kind of hectic. 


Mr. C came home!!! Woo Hoo!!!! I was totally looking forward to picking him up and spending quality time together. But of course that did not happen, because I had to work and while in transition we aren't supposed to miss any days. Booo!!!! But we did get the chance to see each other a few days later so here goes that story....


I didn't get off work until 6pm that Saturday. And I immediately ran walked briskly to my car. I had already packed and filled my gas tank, which almost drove me to tears, so I was able to hit the road immediately. I hopped on I-20 and my lead foot took over. You see Mr. C is temporarily stay in GA until he starts at his new base this month.  So...He rented a 4 star hotel for us in downtown Atlanta to enjoy for the weekend.  


Back to the story... My lead foot had me arriving earlier than I expected. So I called C to tell him and of course he did not answer...the first time or the second time or the third time. On the 4th call he answers says that he's in the store and could he call me back, not giving me enough time to say "Babe I'm 20 minutes away".  So at this point I'm reminding myself that I love him and that he just got back and anything else to keep me from getting annoyed. So Mr. C calls back and I tell him that I am 20 minutes away. What does he tell me???? That he hasn't left his parents yet and that he would be an hour or so. WTF... I remained calm said ok and I love you. Of course I cursed as soon as I got off the phone. In fact I didn't even see when he called me back.  I was surprised to see a voice mail, C's message told me that he had sent me a copy of the reservations and called to make sure that I'd be let in. That saved C's a** cause the last thing I wanted to do was sit in a car for an hour.  To be continued because it my bedtime =)

Im still alive

I know I went MIA.... But I had a good excuse. The babe is back! Yay and already driving me crazy, mostly in a good way. I will post a longer one in the next couple of days about homecoming and stuff. I MISS YOUR BLOGS, I have lots of catching up to do

Let the Countdown Begin

This month has been a great one.  The classroom of training at my job is almost over and I finally get to practice all that I have learned. Yipee.  I really, really, did I say really like my job and Mr. C does too.  Plus I will finally really be able to more into the blog. I'm looking for someone to design a new one for me. Any suggestions?

I've signed up for some new classes that start next month. Oh and my company pays for all of it! I'm looking forward to continuing my education.

I got my hair braided...Can you say ten hours? I have a big head and very thick hair. I also got some new glasses! Tiffany and Co. are the best, I love the light blue on the inside.

But best of all I am finally starting my countdown for Mr. C to come home. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it.

Insane in the membrane?

Hi Ladies! I hope all is well. Sorry I have not been the greatest blogger lately. So let me share whats been going on.

Training has been going well. I like my new job so far and it is such a relief not having to drive 200 miles a day. Plus it looks like hes going to be stationed 37 miles away from my new job =) Great news right?  But I'm debating whether or not I want to move in together.

You see Mr. C didn't want to move in right away =( At first my feeling were a little hurt, but I was ok with it.  We have never really lived apart throughout our entire relationship and he wanted to see what it would be like. Plus part of me thinks that Mr. C was at a fork in the road in regards to our relationship.  Meaning that I think he was trying to figure out if this was going to lead to the M word.

I've been engaged before, so I'm in no rush and in fact I'm all for taking things slow. Mr. C has had some friends that have had some bad experiences. When he found out that he was deploying, everyone asked him how did Jess take the news?  It almost made me feel as though they thought I couldn't handle the "military lifestyle".

But I could and I did. I made sure the apartment was taken care of after he had to leave. I took care of all the loose ends and finished moving myself back to my parents. And I did all of this while still working full time, because my last crappy job wouldn't give me days off.

I've sent numerous care packages, the biggest one was 28 pounds ;) And I continued to send them after I left my job, in fact I worked extra part time hours at my old dept store job so I could pay for them. He was able to share with some of his friends there and in fact all of them called him spoiled. Shipping is definitely a nightmare. Side note: He does spoil me as well, very much so.

But I did it all because I love him and I plan on always being there to support him in any way I know how.  So now he has been talking about moving in together sooner... And you know what I'm in no rush. I had already planned on just staying over on weekends anyway. I know he wants a long term future with me, but I just wish he would discuss it more. And part of me feels like if he didn't see this side of me over the course of deployment he would not have wanted to move in together as quickly. So my question is what would you do? Would you move in?  

One more thing:  My title was Insane in the Membrane because I'm doing Shaun T's INSANITY! I'm on my second week. I gotta look good in my bikini while I'm sipping margaritas! HA

Good Weekend Anyone?

A little Birthday update. My poor phone was dead all that day so I had no access to chat or email. When I got home I checked my email and I got the sweetest thing ever: 

 He is so freaking cute!

Plus I got part of my birthday gift courtesy of Amazon. The pictures were the best gift ever, I didn't even need anything else. C knew I was having a bad day and just wanted to make me smile.

On another note my job is going well.  I'm trying to make new friends, but we shall see. The most important thing is that I think I'm going to like my job =) I have to get a blogging app for my Droid so I can blog during my lunch.

So ladies what is the sweetest thing your Babe has ever done for you?
