    Haze Gray Matter

    July 25, 2008 / No Comments

    I think the most irritating thing about my dear military husband is that he likes to pretend that I don’t know what he is up to. Let me explain: I took a short trip this past weekend to visit my mother. He was supposed to have been on that trip, but his ship’s schedule changed at the last minute so he had to stay behind to get underway while I was gone. I left a small “honey do” list, and on it I requested that before he left the house, could he please take out the trash? Nothing major, I wasn’t asking him to redo my kitchen. Why is it…

    Well, I was right to be apprehensive. Things are only just getting back to some kind of normal. Kind of scary since he has been home for five months now. But to make matters worse, two weeks after his return, we got it into our heads to sell our house and move into a bigger home.

    Care Packages

    October 29, 2007 / No Comments

    Care packages are the back-bone, the veritable life line of all correspondence when forward deployed. Nothing beats getting a box in the mail, opening it and finding little pieces of home inside. Its like Christmas and your birthday all rolled up into one. I know I used to live in the post office on board my last command. And even though my husband, who is in Kuwait right now, said it was okay that it took me almost two months to get him his first package in the mail, I know secretly he was hoping that I just hadn’t told him the truth.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
