I am so incredibly frustrated right now. Instead of sitting here thinking about it and stressing over it I'm hoping to give it away to others. LOL!

So this morning started off well by me finding out I've lost another 3 pounds. That means I've lost 6 pounds in 2 weeks and am now officially into the 140s. Awesome right? Yeah.

Later we go to the "club" on Ft. Rucker and we have Thanksgiving lunch. We are moving on Saturday so we decided not to cook. I ate really well. I had steamed tilapia, a little ham, a little turkey, some salad, green beans, a roll, and a piece of pumpkin pie (which was sadly still frozen in the middle). I am proud of myself for not going for the stuffing and mashed potatoes (although I did have 1 bite of my dad's).

After lunch I got out to the car and found out Otty had called me twice and I missed both calls. Luckily, the second message said he would try one more time before he went to bed for the evening. So, of course, I kept my phone with me including when I went to the restroom. There was no way I was missing his final call!

We also found out after lunch that we got to go to the new house and get the keys. The house is absolutely gorgeous and I can't wait to move in there on Saturday. There's even a gorgeous pool in the back yard.

So I was feeling pretty good right? I have been stressed lately thinking about how to get up to NY with just me and Lily and I found a friend who is willing to fly down from NY and ride back up with me. I found a fairly cheap plane ticket and I bought it yesterday. I was on top of the world thinking everything was working out just fine.

Then Otty called again while we were looking at the house. We started talking with the normal Happy Thanksgiving exchanges and how have you been's. He asked about Lily and I tried to get her to talk to him but she was way to busy other than to say "hello...okay bye." I told O how excited I was about my friend Linda coming down and how I bought her plane ticket and that's when it went downhill. I found out he's having some inventory issues and he may be accountable for the loss of about $11,000 worth of equipment. Awesome. Then he told me about how things are so messed up paperwork wise that he may not be home as early as I thought (xmas time) and he might not even be back until January. Super! Finally, he told me that he's so stressed out that his blood pressure is insanely horrible and he has a mandatory 5 days of blood pressure monitoring when he gets back to Drum. Fantastic!!

Now I'm just sitting here stewing and being upset and frustrated and I don't know what to think or do at this point. Sometimes I just want to give up. I'm trying to be happy and thankful for all the wonderful things I have in my life but it's really hard at this moment. I'm sure we will figure things out...I just have to wait to see what happens. Blah!

otty, deployment, life as i know it
