I am here in Fort Lewis, WA waiting to me mobilized to Kuwait or Iraq. Apparently it's confidential information because as of yet I do not know where I am headed. However, I'm really not that worried about it, yet. No point in getting my panties in a wad over something that has not even surfaced. Hmm?
I miss my family like I knew I would. Saying goodbye to Ryan was heart-breaking. Seriously heart-breaking. It felt like he was leaving me, not the other way around. I hate myself for upsetting his world but I am also proud to keep a part of me independent. I am excited about the financial aspect of this "deal" as we might totally get some serious debt paid off.
Natalie's boyfriend Lee went home on Friday of last week and I know Natalie is alone and also heartbroken. She and my husband have the common bond of being the ones left behind. I hurt for their suffering and wish I could eliminate it with all my heart. Life is not fair but fairness isn't always what it seems either.
I always tell Natalie how lucky /she/ is to have Lee and it's the truth. He is a wonderful person. However, it occurred to me that she isn't the only one lucky. Lee, do you know how fortunate you are to receive the heart of the one you have? Her love is fierce, total and without boundary. She will be loyal to you to your dying day.../You/ are a lucky man, Lee. There are few who know the true scope of my sister so count your blessings everyday that she chose /you/.
Thats all for me for now. I will continue to update when I can. I hope all is well with those I love. Here is my address at FT. Lewis for those who wish to write me.

I'm not sure how long I will be here...but most definitely for the next two weeks and probably more like four.
