Thats good that he's supportive.. he sounds like a really really good guy from what ian tells me. I actually talked to him on skype today, he was in Ians room cuz they were going to go to chow. They're all becoming great friends it seems like. Me and Ian want to get married now but i know i need to finish school so thats 3 yrs. Hopefully they get stationed together! It would be nice to know someone when i go and visit lol. i was teasing ur hubby on skype and telling him "sooo i heard uve been cuddling with my man" and he said "no actually that was him, i cant help it if he thinks im good looking" lol
ya i go to school for nursing, i apply to the nursing program in a couple weeks. it takes a lot of time, but if your really interested you should do it! Or you can become a CNA that only takes like 6months and that will give you a little glimpse. So when are you guys going to move. or are you going to do it after A school?
I was on the phone with Ian and your hubby was over and i guess jumped in ians bed and started cuddling with him hahaha... I told him get off my man! lol He said he talks a lot about you and your kids. Ian really wants kids right now
ya he's going to be in CT for awhile. Its nice to be able to talk to them everyday, but that first few days sucked cuz they were trying to get in the swing of things and we have a 3 hr time difference. So it would be hard for us to find time to talk. Are you going to visit him any time soon?
omg i think i saw you at the airport! It just hit me yesterday that that was probably you. i was talking to my bf and told him how i met you and ur husband was going to A school with him. And then i said wait was he the one with the lil boy with the sailor hat! and he said yes. I kept on telling my bf at the airport how cute that lil boy was and i think it was your son! lol
ya that is a long drive...well hopefully we get to meet since our men r going to the same place!! Im excited that your kids get to see their dad im sure they miss him. I hope you have a safe and great trip... I know your probably just as anxious as i am, i cant keep still!
Yes my bf is a grad and go. And he too has not got his orders yet..They wont get to stay the night after graduation. You have to bring them back by 8pm or 9pm depending on their RDC. Which really sucks. Im sad that my bf has to leave the next day :(
Are you going to the M&G? I wont be able to make it my flight arrive til later in the evening
hey girl my boyfriend goes to CT for A school for 49 days. Then he comes home for a few days then goes back to CT. I don't think you can stay with them while there at A school but they get like discounts at this hotel from what my bf told me. But i think they can go off base and stay with you. Im sorry to hear about your children, that must be rough on all of you! That just broke my heart when i read that. What div is your bf in?
