Snow
we should have the first snow of the season December 8th. i don't like the cold but i do love snow. i wish we would get like 2 ft or more. that would be fuuuuun!
one question.... what the hell happened to 2009? honestly it still feels like it was yesterday that we were worrying about Y2K, then 2001 came and we had 9/11 (RIP all those who died) then 2002 nothing to major there other than fucked up politics... shocker. 2003 my sister graduated, the year after i did, then the year after that the more of my friends finished high school. 2006 i joined the air force and now here i sit before you typing on my computer living in Missouri wishing i was home for the holidays. where did the time go???
i can't remember how old i was when my family actually had a christmas where we were all together and actually happy. since i've been in the military i haven't been able to go home for christmas. i've missed 4 christmas's... i hate that! family is the most important thing i can't even be home for one of the best holiday's.
is it also said that i can't remember how old i was when my parents got divorced.... maybe being in the military has made me desenitized to fucked up family issues, but i don't know at all.
my sister told me my mom wanted to come up and surprise me for christmas. bad idea, because if she just shows up i won't be able to see her while i'm at work. if she shows up on a day i'm at work i can't get off to go pick her up from the airport. she'd be spending money on a plane ticket, lodging, food, and whatever else. if i'm not home in florida i don't want anyone to spend money come see me when i don't have any time off to see them. sure i've got my days off of work but thats still not a lot of time. i'm really happy she wants to but i can't let her spend her money especially when i KNOW she has to save money.
