Almost there......

Ok so you won't believe where I am right now...... KILLEEN, TEXAS, HOME OF FORT HOOD!!!!! I am so excited I can't contain it. I have waited soo long to type this post. Danny is coming in tomorrow, I hope, right now I have no idea where he is. I was hoping to hear from him today. I would like to thank all of you ladies from the bottom of my heart. I couldn't have made it this year without you. I never imagined that I would grow so close to women that I have never met. You ladies are incredible, strong, supportive, and wonderful listeners. We have created a support system that I never thought would be this strong. I really do consider you ladies my friends. I find myself talking to other people about you and I share your ups and downs. You understand what and how I feel and you make me feel a little more sane about some of my feelings. I am so sorry that I didn't post before I left, we actually left on Wednesday at like 10 PM and arrived at our hotel at 1 PM on Thurday (so basically about 2 hours ago), we were just going to leave on Thursday at like 6 AM but there was going to be ice and snow in Missouri so we left the night before. We drove through the night and now here we are. I am sitting in my hotel room with my parents snoring in the next bed (my dad drove through the night) and my future in laws a few rooms down also napping (Danny's dad was the official navigator) I am going to go nuts. I want him to be here now. Everywhere I turn I see a guy in camo. It is killing me. Less than 24 hours to go hopefully. Man, can I wait that long? Hahaha. I want all of you to know that I am not going to leave blogger. I still have quite a lot to do. I am getting married in 6 months, and moving to where I am right now. Killeen. Hmm... I hope I like it here. I saw they have an Olive Garden so I think I will be ok :) Ok well I am going to go attempt to do some homework before we go out to dinner tonight. WISH ME LUCK!!! You probably won't hear from me again until after I come home then I will have pictures and all that good stuff. YAY!!!!!!!!!

Last one

Ok so first I must say... I PICKED OUT BRIDESMAIDS DRESSES!! I am sooo excited. This has been the most challenging part of my wedding so far, because my bridesmaids come in a variety of shapes and sizes. But the other day, I went back into David's Bridal and I saw it, the perfect dress. A bright light shone around it and I could hear the Hallelujah Chorus. It was amazing. It was cosmic. No, it was all God. I am sooo happy. So then came the real test. How did it look on the girls. Well, I took someone's advice which was dress the hardest girl and it'll look good on everyone else. IT LOOKED AMAZING ON HER!!! I will post pictures soon. But now for the real news.
Danny's last mission is today and probably starting soon. And let me say that although I am soooo excited. I have never been so nervous. I just keep thinking, man we have come this far, what would I do if the unthinkable happened. With the end in sight, taunting me. I couldn't take it. I wouldn't know what to do. But I need to stop thinking that way. I really really do. I have 10 awful days left. I am leaving for Texas on the 30th and I am soo excited. I will have time off work. YES!!! Haha, oh and I get to see Danny. Just kidding. But anyway, it is almost 1 AM and I have to start a paper for tomorrow. Haha, I hate school. C'est la vie. (two years of french, blah).

Updates Updates.

Ok sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Danny and I have been having some problems, but I think we are going to be fine. It's been rough but all in all we'll be ok. I am getting more and more anxious about his homecoming. I just want this whole thing to be over. Even thought I have been mad at him, I still miss him soo much. I am so happy that Courtney and Charla's guys are home. CONGRATS GIRLS!!! I am so excited for this semester to be almost over. I can't wait for Thanksgiving break. I need to do some deep cleaning of my room and organizing. BLAH!! I am not excited but I know I will feel a whole lot better when it is done. Since I will be moving to Texas, I need to get rid of all my "junk". Right now I am supposed to be doing my chemistry homework. But I'll be honest. I HATE CHEMISTRY!!! A lot, I mean really, it sucks. Other than that, I feel like sitting on my butt, watching "Chicago", and going to bed on time (meaning before 1 AM). Oh and something funny that will enjoy that I am personally proud of....there were some dumb kids honking their horn outside my house over and over again. I thought they would just pull away but they stayed on my street honking, I thought maybe it is one of my little sister's dumb friends, so I stepped outside but it wasn't a car I recognized. They were in front of my neighbor's house yelling something out the window. Finally like a complete hoosier I yelled "STOP HONKING YOUR HORN!!!!!" I can inside and laughed because it was definately 10:30 at night and I am yelling out my front door. It was awesome. They sped off and I didn't hear honking for the rest of the night. Well, that's my story hope it made you smile.
