Campbell???? Riley you have to stay.

Surprise!! Riley is Not doing well again

EKG results came back. Lungs are in severe distress. Doctors say its mostly because of her asthma, weather and allergies. That initially came from her being induce while lungs were still devopling.  so Riley is put now on a nebulizer along with steroids and others twice a day, if not more. She is going to be having this asthma the rest of her life most likely.

I have all the equipment at home. so i only have to take her in 1 time a week to the hospital. bad news on that is that because of her health Campbell might not be where we are headed to anymore.

No housing for us. and the Army wont send us there unless we are on base within 5 miles of the hospital. The EFMP is suppose to guarantee that we get housing. The main office in Washington is so backed up with applications and requests, that with us leaving in 20 days. its not enough time to approve us So Greg must go to his head command here before Wednesday and request a letter to the Army Washington office demanding a house for us. or Greg's job in Campbell is gone.

Options if this doesn't happen. Branch office says that Greg will either deploy for a year while we stay here in VA. and wait for Campbell housing (no shorter deploy, all aviation is a year) or we might be going to a new base that has housing. But they said moving base isn't likely. Campbell on orders, Campbell it will be. But who really knows. I really don't know what is all going to happen. all i know is that we have to be out of this house by Dec 15th. and where we go is who knows????

Pretty crazy all just because Riley. Poor baby.

Tough times

Well we found out where we are moving to. I'm not too happy. This means lower chance of us visiting family. And possibly not going home for Christmas.

I'm stuck alone doing 100 things. looking for places to live.etc. If you have ever done a military pcs. They are the hardest things in the world. I have no support from my husband. Being 1 he is being a total know it all jerk and 2 he is still in school and cant help. Again face to do it all.

He is so excited to go becuase he wanted KY. That I cant even be upset. I'm so upset. Im sooo stressed. and just like last time oh well. Christy must do it. I really want to just say. "nope you do it. I'm flying the girls home for Christmas. you figure it all out. you do all this." I'm soooo tempted.

Riley isn't doing well again. what a surprise. She is put on EFMP so that no matter where we are she will get the help and treatment she needs. It seems people have forgotten and lost care that Riley has and is still struggling. That sometimes i could use the support.

Taylor got her report card. All greats except science. I'm very proud of her. She is going to be devastated when i pull her from school. And she wont be able to return till the new school yr.

I really wish the Army moved people to places that have houses. 8 months living in a hotel. Isn't going to be fun.

Boxes Again !?!?

Well here we go again, its been only 3 months and as i knew this time would come. It is here. Time to pack up and move. Just as the previous move damages were fixed. Ready to do it all again? Hell no. But I am ready to have a home. Still waiting on finding out where we are going. Maybe its a good thing. Saving the best for last? i sure hope so.

I don't know where ill be living, how long ill be in a hotel. when Greg will start work. Where Christmas will be. When we can buy our girls Christmas presents. But I'm sure with each passing day it will get easier. But first as many know. It has to get to the worst.

Up dates on the girls:

Taylor Can now write her name without looking. a little scribble but she gets it done. she knows over half the alphabet in sign language. Tell you who illustrates, what an author is. She can tell you sooo much with only being 4 yrs old. Conversations with her run for hrs. She has sooo many friends. Every weekend a new birthday party. She has become the little socialite.

Riley is doing so much better in health. she had a huge growth spurt. she weighs at 17 lbs now. Is wearing 12 month old clothes. (9 month pants) Her vocab is amazing. "Elephant, apple, squirrel, etc." She loves to sing and is always singing "The Hot Dog song" even when its not on. She is crazy smart.

Greg: Has started FTX last Sunday. Which is 2 weeks of training. EOC test (final PT) and much more. These 2 weeks he can not talk or see us. He does though get the 4 day off. which his group is lucky. He is 3rd in his class and his GPA is 95.5. He does weekend combatives. And of course you all know he is 1st place in that. He has a competition on Dec 3rd. I'm so proud of him. He spends little time with us. But when he is here its all about the girls. Greg is very happy. He loves what he is doing.

Halloween was great. The best we have ever had. A whole week of fun. We attended so many things. And got a crazy large amount of candy. The girls had so many events they wore multiple costumes. lol. Riley was a pro at the trick or treating. and of course Taylor was 2 houses ahead of us. Great part was a last min surprise which was Greg got to go with us.

As for me. I have been off and on sick. Which Black mold has been found to be the cause. Housing is coming to "clean" but I'm just ready to leave. My doctor has me detoxing off my meds. which sucks. because i am having bad head aches. but good for my body. I hate to say it but Ive gotten so great at being a single mom. I can do anything and everything now. but sadly i miss my husband all the time.
I hide it well. but at night i cry. and I'm sure once he is overseas i wont hide it so well. but this is the life we made and we are doing it the best we can.

The girls are so happy and my husband is happy. So i guess i can be too. Just not today..... Thank god for my busy life. It makes me forget how alone and neglecting to myself i am.

Still crossing my fingers for COLORADO or WASHINGTON or TEXAS!!!
