Sweet Dreams...Not Exactly

Hey everyone!! Well my day started out pretty crappy as I awoke from a terrible nightmare this morning. I was being chased by a serial killer and no matter how long I ran or how many fences i jumped over he still kept chasing me! Needless to say I awoke from my very unpeaceful slumber panting and drenched in sweat...not the ideal start to my morning. But as the day went along things started to look up. I got a phone call from my good friend Anastasia, who is also a fellow navy wife btw, and that cheered me up alot. :) Its always nice to have someone to talk to when you feel like your losing your mind...lol. And seeing as she's been through it all before(deployments/loneliness/being jerked around by the navy etc.) It gives me hope that I too can make it through this, for lack of a better word, crappy time in my life. The day started looking up from there and I got ready and started my day. I talked with my mother in law for a bit and worked on some stuff for ICM (my part time job at our church). Even though the work is mostly office stuff and pretty boring it makes me feel good to be working even if its only part time...its been a rough transition going from working 32-40 hours a week in a fast paced store and having a ton of responsibilities as a full time manager, to just being a house wife and working part time. I am definitely not the stay at home and do nothing kind of girl. I love fashion and the creative aspect of running a store but i do not miss the stress of it all. I just wish there were some in between job I could find for the next few months but seeing as the economy is down the toilets in califonia, thats easier said than done. I've searched and found nothing so far and seeing as I only have about 4 and 1/2 months left before we move to Virginia I'm worried I won't be able to find anything. But at least I have my part time job for the time being...so thats always a plus! Anyways were still anxiously awaiting the arrival of baby Bella Marie as she is proving to be a stubborn child already!! Lol...she just doesn't want to grace us with her presence yet! ;) Hopefully she will be here sometime this week and Mel wont be so uncomfortable anymore. I find it funny how many birthdays there are in our family and Mel's husbands family this month, so this baby seems destined to be born on someones birthday!! But I guess we will all have to just wait and see! In other news I heard from my hubby tonight and It made my night!! :) Talking to him always cheers me up and I love hearing his voice. Don't get me wrong I'm extremely grateful for email and all the technology we have these days but its no substitute for actually hearing your husbands voice! :) I am loved and blessed to have such a wonderful hubby!! So all in all not a bad day...it had a bumpy start but ended with a bang! :) I hope you all had a wonderful Monday as well!! Thanks for listening and have a blissful day!! God Bless!!

XOXO,

The Navy Wife
