Some people should think...

Some people really should think before they say anything. I know everyone says things that they wish that they wish they would have not said. But I had an experience in which this person should really have thought before they said anything. It was the first Sunday after Adam had left and I went to church. Our bishopric stands out of the chapel doors before the meeting starts and shakes everyones hands. Well when I went up one of them said, "oh, look there's the widow"...did you really just say that!!!???  Come on, you do NOT say that to someone who's husband is away let alone someone who's husband is going off to war. I was so mad about it. When I told Adam he was even more mad about it. He said,"I'm NOT DEAD, he has not right to say that". I know that this person was trying to be funny, but that was not funny to me. I know I am without my husband by my side right now, but I'm not single, or a widow, my husband is just serving his country. He is keeping us safe by taking care of his soldiers just like a medic should. I was already emotional enough from the weeks event that I really did not need that.

On another note. Last week Adam went to the movies with his squad. He said it was some Alien movie and it was really stupid. He really didn't want to go but said if he didn't he might have started to cry because he was missing me so much. I miss him so much too!!!!

Here is a picture they had taken in from of the movies at a lemonade stand. They were taking everyone's picture.

The place were Adam is right now he doesn't get very good cell phone service. He didn't get to call me on Tuesday and then on Wednesday I thought he would call for sure, I even stayed up until midnight waiting to see. But he didn't have service so he couldn't call. That was the first night that I cried myself to sleep.

This last week Adam's Dad got to go down for the Boss Lift (I'll post more about this later). But here is a picture of Adam from when he was in the heat trainer(I think that is what it is called). It's a MRAP and then spin you around like you're in a rollover and then you have to get out.

I've been printing more pictures from our pre-deployment shoot and putting them around the house and today I found a frame in my storage and I didn't like the color so I painted white and then sanded it so it looked antique. I think it turned out pretty good.
