Bill has 2 weeks left of basic training. I am really looking forward to seeing him, my last post was during a rough patch of our seperation. I am doing much better now. Really, I had just a couple of meltdowns, otherwise I've been handling him being gone really well. I guess this is preparing me for the life of an Army wife. I have no clue what Bill will be doing (besides playing his tuba), if he could be deployed; how long he could be gone if he is deployed. This kind of worries me. He's going to be stationed at a deploying base, so there is the possibility of him being deployed. I guess people go through this all the time. My mom did it... My dad went out to sea for three months and then was home for three months. Hopefully I will find friends in Tacoma, I especially want to find friends who are spouses to band members, this way they will understand exactly what I'm going through!!!!!
Interesting thing, my parents raise several farm animals, I guess you could say they live on somewhat of a farm...they're building it up. Anyway, last Saturday we butchered rabbits, YIKES. (Rabbit meat is good..FYI) Anyway, we made rabbit jerky with some of the meat.. and it is GOOD!!! This weekend we're going to butcher turkeys and have a little canning party! I hope to one day be self sufficient like them. They have an awesome garden too, just yesterday I picked broccoli for our dinner. So amazing. They have a couple of cows that are about ready to be slaughtered... no buying beef for a while!
I guess this is my update for now, only 14 days until I can be in my husband's arms again. It's going to be a lovely reunion.
