Heartbreak and link up

Hello wonderful friends

I first want to Thank all of you military ladies who helped get me through this deployment, your encouraging words were like sunshine on a rainy day.

I am sad to say that I am no longer dating my marine :(  2 days after getting back from the sand box we had a coffee date and he said he wanted to break up and go back to being friends.  This was definitely a shock to me but I also know he was doing this for our best.  He is going into a special thing for the Marines and it has restrictions such as he can't be married ect... he will be out of the country for the next 3 years. :(   so he made a hard choice ( he knew I would have waited 3 years). We are still best friends and we talk often but the whole dating thing is on hold. We both are holding it with an open hand knowing that our paths may never come together again as a couple. We are trusting God and believing that if we are meant to be it will happen.

My military blog will be left alone for the time being..
I have a personal blog that you all may follow if you would like here's the link

God bless and Semper FI !!

Finally Home safe

My man is finally home and I couldn't be more relieved and happy !! Homecoming was the most exhilarating experience of my life. Let me tell you a lil bit of how it went !!

Well first I was so thankful I wasn't all by myself in a strange town. My man has this great family for me to stay with and they were very familiar with homecomings. I was briefed on EVERYTHING you could imagine about homecomings including the jitters and hormone craziness. I don't know what I would have done without them.

So this whole thing went down in a huge field and it was at night so it was dark.  My man contacted me and told me what bus he was on, or so I thought.  When The buses finally got there my heart was racing  and my whole body was shaking like a leaf.

I was standing as close as I could the the "supposed" bus that he was getting off of. I was getting really nervous when marines kept stepping off and none were him, it was getting to the end and I was like where is he did me get the buses mixed up?  While all this stuff was going on in my head all of a sudden I was completely airborne and I screamed  bloody murder ! I have never screamed that loud EVER!  He had given me the wrong bus number so he could sneak up behind me and wrap me up in a hug before I saw him, what a sneaky marine.
After I got done screaming I turned around and held him for  a few seconds before kissing him senseless.

Oh the rush of feelings going through me at that moment cannot be explained, I didn't want to leave his arms for anything.

Well I guess that is all for now I am just really happy he is safe and that I am in the same state as him. :)  Now to spend the next 2 weeks  with my Marine and love!

PS I have pictures coming but it will be a few days.

SEMPER FI !! Amber joy
