Just an update

So this update will be written in my more normal writing style.
Please, forgive if it is more....disjointed, then before.

Things have been rough.
these past few months have really taken a toll on me.
I've been working a lot, and even though I love what I'm doing, it's an emotionally and mentally draining job.
A family medical emergency rocked us, and I feel like I'm out of the loop, because I can't afford to give a hundred and ten percent of my focus to help with that, because I have to be ready for leaving in 18 days.
Car problems and schedules have made it really hard to do much but work and sometimes have down time at home.
I joined a gym, and have been going with Justin every day that we can. It's really helping with getting ready for basic. However, I'm realizing that because of the gym, work and family things, I barely get to see Justin to just be a normal couple. And that really bothers me. I'd really like to see him other then just to go to workout or go to something AF check-in related....but it is what it is.

I have 18 days until I leave, then i can just focus on what I need to do.

Until then, I'm just toughing it all out as best I can....Doing a lot of writing, personal things, cleaning my room, and hitting the gym.
That's about it, other then playing with my Kitten Mooch.

You know where I am if you need anything....get a hold of me if you need.

Oh! I forgot!

So yeah, I forgot, I got a Cat!

His name is Whiskey Mooch, though we just call him Mooch. He was a stray that decided to adopt Justin and I one night on the driveway, and he never really left the house. The vet says he's maybe nine months old, based on his teeth. He's a gorgeous and beautiful kitten, and very loving, if a bit playful.


So here! Have some pictures of him!








Isn't he just the Cutest cat?!

Again, More Randomness

So I have 32 or 33 days until I leave, depending on if you count Feb 12 or not.

To keep you up to date, I'm still working, but I stop at the end of the month.
I joined Powerhouse Gym yesterday, and I'm starting to work-out there. There's a DEP call next monday, and for me it will be my thirty day briefing as well.

Other then that, there's not been much happening. I've been writing a lot, and I got my driver's license, which is kinda cool.

So I guess that's all for this post, I'll leave you with a random writing I did yesterday...I should warn you however, it's not a happy writing, though it was not meant to be as depressing as I think it turned out. I like it though, so I'm putting out there for you to decide! As always, comments are much appreciated!

*hugs and lovels to my peoples out there!*




Hollow-hearted Buildings
(are all that we become)

Twisted edges of broken metal.
Score the lines that lead right into our hearts.
Snap the panes of glass along these thin tracks.
Put them in a fitted steel holder.
Use our heartglass to cover up the holes in our walls.
Masking our truths, showing nothing.
But the warped and distorted image of the truth.
Don't ever open the casements.
You don't want to see what's inside.

Crushed stones build gravel sidewalks.
Leading paths down to the walls.
Dust raises from the ground you step on.
The sparkle of the glittering glass in the walls marks time.
Past noon.
Or past midnight.
Time matters little here.
It only goes to show you what the stillness can be like.
Only goes to show.
Shows the twisted distorted image.
Of the darkness locked inside.
The secrets we keep hidden.
'Neath the shallow buried lies.
