Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but there is so much to deal with that time just seems to get away from me. I have taken to walking in the mornings 4 times a week and that is a real stress reliever. It also gets me out of the house, which is totally crazy. I know we prayed to have our soldier back home everyday she was gone, but now that she is home things are sure different. We knew that she would be different and boy is she, you can't hardly say anything to her without her snapping at you. I hope this will improve with time, but I don't know how much more we can take. I think maybe it is time for her to move out on her own. I think she was used to doing whatever she wanted whenever she wanted and sometimes you just can't so that in a house with other people to consider. I also really thought that the millitary would have taught her some kind of discipline but that seems to have fallen by the wayside in favor of sheer laziness and lack of any type of motivation. The good news is she is finally working and that is a God send. She only lays around the house now until she goes to work. I hope her chu was kept alot cleaner than her room, I think she could actually grow something in all the piles she has developed in there. I know this sounds pretty petty, but I hope this comes to an end soon. I only hope I am not the only one dealing with this from their children coming back form deployment.

I have about 10 pounds to go reach my goal for vacation. I think that is obtainable before we leave. I am so looking forward to vacation. Hurry up March 22nd.

Have a good day
