I have not forgotten the blog. Things are starting to happen and I'll have news very soon! If all works out right....I'll have plenty of new things to post about soon. I will say that it has been a bit of a stressful journey for me.
In other news, my oldest came home from Afghanistan today! My youngest volunteered to go, sigh, so I get to do it all over again. He goes in a month or so, then 9 more months of worry (terror) until he comes home as well.
Still playing the violin. Got a book of Irish tunes which I like very much. Playing the Irish tin whistle as well and I am really enjoying both.
Anyway, good news to come...hopefully!
Excellent! You've been missed.
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting us know where you've been. Sharing your terror for your youngest!
ReplyDeleteMust be so scary having your 'babies' over there!
ReplyDeleteIt is scary the whole time, every single day. When they come on and tell you how happy they are that they came back from their patrols and when they show things they were awarded for having to be in real combat shooting at someone, it's just damn terrible. My younger son who will be going next will be in a better place over there but it is still Afghanistan.
DeleteI will pray for you and your youngest too! You have been missed, I hope y'all have found a place to move to and that it will be all you want!
DeleteGood to hear that you are still there Becky! Looking forward to hearing more news...
ReplyDeleteI am dying to tell it Mark, but afraid I might jinx it. I will mention however that our savings went down substantially today :)
DeleteOh Becky, I've really missed reading your posts! So glad good things are happening! Prayers for the son going that he'll be safe at all times, and the other son won't have to go back! That's awesome that you are learning to play those instruments! Maybe you can do a video and share with us! Can't wait to hear what's all going on there! Blessings from Bama!
ReplyDeleteMore to come. I have missed posting too but since we were trying to find a place to move to, we saw no reason to keep fixing things here.
DeleteHi Becky,I missed your posts also. I do know about long periods in between posts, did a few myself,LOL. Glad to hear you got one back in one piece. Hope your other does as well. I know how combat is. Take care
ReplyDeleteMy self sufficiency had to scale down a good bit lately so not much to write about.That will be changing though.
DeleteSounds like your new place will be great, can't wait for more news later!
DeleteHi Becky glad to have you back. You have been missed. How are the 2 'not so new' dogs getting on now?
ReplyDeleteI don't really know what to say about your 2 sons except good on them :-) I hope all the overseas forces deployed in Afghanistan go back home where they belong and soon (as do you and many others no doubt).
The two new dogs have some issues. I guess I need to do an update post.
DeleteGod bless your two boys and please God keep them both safe and sound while they're out there in ganners. And god bless you too for being their mom and the mom of two such fine men. Best wishes from another Mum (Royal Marine UK) :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
