A book and Pool

As stated in my previous post... our last deployment was two years ago, and our next one won't be for at least three more years... how does one get so "lucky"?  Umm... you should probably check the title of my blog! :)  Yep, recruiting duty, which is it's own bundle of 'fun'! 

Really, some times really suck.... (4 am calls from 18 year olds that just got a DUI- 14 hour days), but there are other times that kinda make it worth it.

Like now.

We are staying in a beautiful hotel.  In a 2 room suite, an awesome king size bed, great amenities, free breakfast (and drinks at night!), and a pool...

It's not so great for Pave, he's in classes all day, but it was SOOO worth it for me to drive down (he had to drive in the GOV, so I drove down a day later)!

When he first told me about it, he said he didn't think that I would want to come because he would be in classes all day... I simply responded- "They have a pool, and I have a book!"

Bliss.

Bliss on the Air Force's dime... even better!

I'm off to the pool!

Somewhere...

We are somewhere between the current place we call 'home', and the home I will always carry in my heart! Surprise surprise, Pave didn't get done until almost 1:30pm today, not noon like planned. I guess I shouldn't complain, because his leave doesn't officially start until midnight, so he still got out 'early'. However, Mr. Garmen is now telling us that we won't arrive to my parents house until 2:01am.... ugh! We will have to sleep fast, because I know they already have the day planned! Also, I found out late last night that my best friend EVER is going to come up. We haven't seen each other in almost 5 years (when she was my maid of honor). I don't know what is best, the fact that I'm going home, or that while I'm home I'll be able to see her!

So, Albuquerque here we come. If only Oklahoma City would be a distant memory, instead of our next gas stop.

Ohhh... I better get off here, I didn't quite think this blog thing through. I read the updates on all the blogs I follow, and now am typing this (obviously) and why I didn't think this qualified as 'reading while diving' I'm not sure, but my stomach is sure telling me that it does!

I'm on Pave's work computer (gotta love that they are giving recruiters air cards now), so I can't sign off with my normal signature... so here it goes-
