Day 3

Day 3 - A picture of how you met (for example, computer for you met online, school for you met in high school, ect), and tell the date you met. Did you know then that you’d be where you are with him today?

Okay, so this is the ONLY picture I could find of my high school. But this is where I met Cody. I knew him as Cody Gallant my brother's friend who always wore a purple LSU sweatshirt (that I made fun of him for) but the first time I ever talked to him was in the hallway as he was asking me to prom. Kind of crazy to ask someone to prom the very first time you talk to them EVER. but it was cute especially when we talk about how we felt that day and stuff I love telling him what I thought when he did this or that. :D I just Love him. <3

Ohh... Happy Days

So today has been wonderful. I had some rough spots but at the end of the day it turned out wonderful. I got the call I have been waiting months for. Cody's return date window. Yippie. I am so excited to finally know of course I can't say it due to OPSEC but yeah. There is a little bit of conflict with it but I am putting it in God's hands he has a plan.

I called housing and they said we were getting an apartment not the duplex we wanted I was furious. But after doing some research I found out it is the area we wanted but isn't exactly a duplex confusing but whatever. I am happy nothing will bring me down, maybe waking up to go to horrible school in the morning but tonight I am great. :D

Good Mood :D

So I am in the mmost wonderful mood in the world everything just seems to be falling right into place. First off, I got to talk to Cody 3 times in the past two days. CRAZY! He took the thing about his friend Underwood pretty hard and I hated having to be the bear of bad news. But with all of our talking we have talked about all the thing we are going to do when he gets home. Go to Cedar Point (amusement park,) a Tigers baseball game, the zoo, sleep under the stars where he asked me to marry him, snuggle (god I have missed that,) shop, get our house setup, and finally have a Barbecue. I am so excited. I can't wait for him to come home. I just want to hold him in my arms again, ahh... it is almost time.

Of course with the good comes the Semper Gumby or Always Flexible. Cody told me one time when he called me that he was going to be home May 28. of course my first thought WHAT THE FUCK! That is the day before my graduation and I will not be there. So after run through it in my head I came to the conclusion if that does happen I will fly out there for a few hours if I have to and back home to be sleeping at graduation. I don't care I WILL BE THERE. Of course though Cody and his dramatic self says "I am going to be a poor homeless kid with no place to go" and "I am going to tell Sells (his friend) family that you are a cheating whore and that's why you didn't show up" haha That is our sense of humor though obviously I am not a cheating whore, we always do that like I ask him how his Hajji girlfriend is over there, he asked me what my boyfriend got me for valentine's day that is how we are and I love it. Soon he will be home and we can make jokes together. YAY!

News on Underwood is he went to Germany last night for us and today for us is doing good (not sure exactly what that includes, consciousness I think) and will be state side in the next week. God really does work miracles and I can not wait to tell Cody whenever I talk to him. :D

Hope everyone had an awesome Easter. I did in Frankenmuth and at my dad's too bad I had Anatomy homework but hey life is good and my new life is about to start soon so I will stop complaining... Maybe :D

Sorry for grammatical errors I hate them but my brain isn't up to fixing them.

Prayers Needed

Mitch Underwood, Cody's good friend from bootcamp and ITB and the sweetest guy you will ever meet has been injured in Afghanistan. Earlier today his wife called me and told me what had happene and I was in complete and utter shock. He was blown up while on a mission and has multiple health problems. I ask that everyone pray for him, his wife, and 1 year old son. He had about nine weeks left before he would be home. This isn't even my husband and I am shocked, scared, and sad. I can't imagine if this was to happen to me. So please pray...

On another note I got to talk to Cody.

Ready to move on

I downloaded the Blogger app on my phone so I'm not sure how this will look.

So anyways I have everything but essentials packed and I still have 36 days until I move. I guess you could say I am a little excited. There is a picture maybe at the bottom of this post again I am on the app and don't know where it will be at. The picture is of all my boxes I have packed up to go. I have a hitch now on my car now it is a boy car not a girl car. :( it's tragic I know.
There has been so much drama at school and I can't wait for it to be over with like really people? We have 20 days of school left just suck it up and be nice to each other. I can't wait to get out of there and this small town.
I visited Cody's dad today at the family lawn mower shop and it was nice to see him and cody's grandparents too. Reminds me of Cody. I love when I leave and my jacket or shirt smell like the oil and lawn mowerness of the shop and I get a whiff of it all day long reminding me of the way Cody would smell when he came home from work at the shop.
This weeken I am going to Frankenmuth with my Aunt and Uncle for Easter. You probably don't know what it is an I can't really explain it so I suggest Google searching it. It's like a German town. I don't know google knows better.
Anyways, I really miss Cody and still haven't heard from him since March 29. It is so FRUSTRATING. I have so much to talk to him about but if I don't have a call by Monday I am calling housing and making my own decisions. But anyways, I hope everyone has a great Easter. :D

Army Wives

 I just got done watching the first episode of Season 2 of Army Wives. I recently started watching the show because I have heard how great it was and wanted to start from the beginning. I don't want to ruin anything for those who haven't watch it and want to. But the last episode of Season 1 was crazy. You can not end a season like that. I think God knew I would be made so he had Barnes & Noble have a buy one get one half off sale so I would buy Season two. Thank God I did. I balled for about half of the first episode of Season 2 so I think it is time to call it a night. Crying takes a lot out of you. I think I was crying because it was sad and emotional what happened. Any show you watch you begin to grow on the people in it and believe them to be your family. Like House or NCIS, my other two favorite TV shows, I grow onto the people and get to where I care about them like I really do know them. Anyways, I was crying because I had a connection with these people in some way and because I think it got me thinking about Cody. Yeah, he is on my mind all the time but I just kinda push the fact that he is actually IN Afghanistan and could die or be seriously injured this very second and I am living my life like he is still alive. You never really know. I am really good at hiding my feelings and acting like everything is perfectly fine. So I put that face on most of the time but I also have my times where I breakdown and cry forever and feel like crap, I think most of us do. ugh... why can't Cody just be home now. 45 days until Graduation and moving to California.

I let Odie stay up late with me while I watched Army Wives and he of course passed out hours ago but he has been having dreams which causes him to kick and make noises. I always wonder what he is dreaming about because people you can just ask when they wake up dogs though you never really know. Ohh... Well he brightened my day for having his little doggy dreams :D Now Cody just needs to call me so my life will seem a little less stressful but I do stress myself out a little bit too much over little things anyways. But I think it is bed time I have Horrid school tomorrow. UGH! 25 days of sitting in school left. yippie.
P.S. I have been kinda sucking at blogging not like I am too good at it anyways but I try. and I have been sucking it up on been a co-admin (not sure if that's a word?) on the facebook page Young Military Love. I guess I need to try harder at a few things. But anyways GOOD NIGHT :D

Homecoming

I have been thinking about Cody coming home a lot lately. It is so close and it is completely insane. I haven't found shoes yet but I will figure it out in the next 2 months. I got a hitch put on my car for the Uhaul, I packed away all my long sleeved shirts and sweatshirts, and my mom is buying her plane ticket home from Cali. It is all just closing in and I am so excited yet worried at the same time. What if Cody comes home and the outfit I am wearing isn't what he expect, or what if I gained weight, or look different not in a good way. What if I am not the same person I was before I left, what is he's not the same person.  I am kinda freaked out but I know if I put it in God's hands it will all workout. I tried on my dress that I plan on wearing tonight and took a picture. As I looked in the mirror more my biggest worry was what if Cody doesn't like it. That is my biggest worry he hasn't seen me for 7 months and I want to make a good impression. BUT as my sister said as I was complaining to her about this issue Cody will like whatever I wear because he hasn't seen me for 7 months. I'm not just fishing for comments I am truly concerned about this and I will freak out about it unitl the second Cody gets off the bus and into my arms.
Anyways... here is a picture of my dress. Not very good but it is an idea of what it will look like. Still no shoes though.

I looks weird in this picture so I tried finding it on the American Eagle website and it is not on there for whatever stupid reason. So anyways this is my dress I am wearing when Cody comes home that I will freak out about for quite sometime.

The whole government shutdown thing isn't a big deal to me because I live at home and my mom yep my mommy pays for everything right now. If I needed that money to pay rent I might possibly be irrate right now.

Odie

so I am not exactly if this is something to be upset about but I need to vent. For my trip to North Carolina my dog Odie who I said before was my baby, went to my dad's house. My step mom just got a new cat and didn't want Odie because he would fluster the cat but my dad still said he could come over when I was in NC I calle my dad's house an asked one of my nieces if she was having fun playing with Odie an she said he wasn't there. since she is 4 I kept my cool and when my step mom got back on the phone aske if my dad would call me when he got home from church.
meanwhile, my mom called a guy who my dad works with and we suspected had my dog and he did have him an talked like he was going to keep him! I was so mad. when my dad finally did call me I asked about Odie and he said he played ball with him and he was behaving very well. He straight up LIED to me. I was furious, but with my "peacemaker" personality I didn't say anything and kept talking to him. my mom called my ad later and asked him and he even told my dad mom that he still had Odie. when I get home and pick Odie up I'm not sure how things will go with my dad. It frustrates me because Odie is like my kid as weird as it may be and I feel hurt that he would just boot my "kid" out because I know he would never do that to my nieces when they come over ALL the time. sorry I just needed to get that out it may seem stupid but ohh... well

On the other hand my vacation is going great I leave tomorrow to head back home.  I got a nice tan going on that I might need to touch up at the tanning salon at home before going to cali. I have my ress picked out I just need shoes, my mom said we were going shopping friday so hopefully I can fin the right ones. I'm thinking flats or those like egyptian sandals, because heels would be hard to run into Coy's arms in and flip flops would probably fall off so when I fin the right ones I will put pictures of my dress an shoes. One thing that sucked about vacation though was seeing all these marines around town makes me miss Cody a whole lot more. I got the onut of misery app on my phone an  it makes me so happy because I am so close to done with this deployment 9 weeks until graduation and heaing to california and soon after that Cody coming home.
Once again sorry for grammar I'm on my phone adn "D" is broken.
