Hurry Hurry
My brother has been in Afghanistan since April and is home earlier then we expected for R&R. Right now he is in MD staying at my mom's but Saturday he is flying here with my 11 year old brother. Insomnia has has completely wiped me of any energy not that I had much to begin with so my house is such a mess. I thought I had more time but my brother showed up early. All day today I have been trying to clean as much as possible. Bailey comes out of the field tomorrow so hopefully it's early enough that he can help me do some stuff. I still have sooooooo much to do! I got out all of our Christmas stuff and decorated the house, we had planned to get a tree the day after Thanksgiving but as always it didn't happen so I plan for us to get one tomorrow after he gets home. I wanna pick up some pointsettas to put on the front porch as well. Bailey has block leave starting the 17th so we are gonna have so much going on in teh nect few weeks. My brothers will be here till about the 10th and naturally Bailey will be in the field the entire week they are here....he hasn't seen them since last Christmas....the 13th we have my ultrasound and the 18th we are leaving for our 14 hour drive back to MD. I still don't know how that is going to work. I hate traveling with the dog...he is so big and we have to constantly stop to let him walk and go to the bathroom as if the trip itself was not horrible enough. And we have the cat so we don't know what we are gonna do. We will be staying at a friends house and they already have two cats, it was nice enough they offered us to bring the dog so I don't know what is going to happen. We can't really afford to put Connor in a kennel, he is so big and it cost so much! It pisses me off that his family especially is pretty damn wealthy and they can't even offer to help with the cost. We are not getting each other or anyone else a gift this year because all of our Christmas money is going into the trip home. They all wanna see us but of course don't want to do a thing to help us get there. The whole trip is stressing me out! At times I don't even want to go but who knows the next time I will be able to go again with a baby coming. Bailey's family is just overwhelming and so annoying me being pregnant only makes it worse.....his mother thinks she controls everything and throws a fit if she doesn't get her way. My family on the other hand is so dysfunctional and dramatic. Needless to say it is going to be interesting. My hormones make me completely irrational and have no tolerance so let's see how many people I kill when I am home lol.
