I'm missing UFC 98!!

I am sitting here, with Lelu curled up next to me listening to Quincy Harper. If you don't know who that is, be sure to listen to him. He is really good...get "Hole in the Wall". I am completely sun burnt from mowing the million acres that Mom and Dad like to call a lawn.
I did my 72 hour check in with the recruiter yesterday and that made the reality set in a lot more. I have my bags out, ready to pack but of course I have procrastinated and haven't really packed anything yet. I am already thinking that I will forget something. I am dreading leaving my girls and family here and of course my baby Lelu. Somehow I think they will all be fine without me here but I will still miss them like crazy.
I am completely ready for this in so many ways, yet terrified in others. It's not like the Army is unfamiliar to me, but I am just a natural stressor. I worry about everything. I keep convincing myself that I won't fail at this. lol
I was talking about twittering with my Uncle and I told him that we are a society of narcissists but really blogging is about the same thing. I hope this doesn't mean that I am full of my self. Haha.
So far, all I have is one reader...YAY SARA!!!
And for those of you wondering....UFC 98 is Ultimate Fighting Championship and I am missing it but getting constant updates on it over texts.

Three Weeks To Go!

Well, I started running on the road again today. Let me tell you...it wasn't pretty. I'm not saying I am as out of shape as I thought I was, but my dog kicked my ass. Enough said. I am getting nervous about this whole process, but excited at the same time. I have WAY too much free time on my hands and I am just ready to get down and dirty. It was a nice Oregon day today...that means rainy and gloomy but I shouldn't complain seeing as Georgia will be blazing and I will be crying for the rain. It is time to get back in the land of the living and stop moping about being dumped and unemployed. I have a lot to offer and damn it! the Army is going to give me the means to do it.
