Thanks...
So.. When I dropped Joyce off at the CGA last July.. I was really concerned how I would survive the whole thing.. but I did okay... well let me elaborate..
We flew into Providence a couple days early, we spent some quality time goofing off just her and I driving all over New England and just being together.. it was something that I knew I would need..
On Thursday the 29th we showed up bright and early to the CGA..
I was a little shaky... Luckily I met a member from the SAF (MDDAD) and we all walked to Chase hall together, chatting with them was the distraction my heart needed. I got a picture of her on the stairs before we entered.. we walked into to Chase hall ... got a little hug and she said goodbye and was gone..................... I was mortified........and so proud at the same time.. Then bursting with pride it was time to go to the CGX and spend WAYYYYY to much money... shake (they plan it that way)... Then later in the day we got to see them one more time marching and such and taking their oath.. WOW.. rollercoaster for sure...
Then 4.3 minutes for a few hugs and goodbyes... then she was gone... ohh my.. I was okay, proud of myself.. Then I drove out the gates balling my eyes out.. now just 45 minutes to get to Providence haha.. couldnt call my hubby, cause he would make me cry.. so I called Shellz and PMLutton, then my son.... finally to the hotel, then to the bar!!!
I ordered 2 doubles shots of Southern Comfort.................................... LOL Then I went to bed! The next day I was on the plane.. I was okay, but a bit lonely.....
Joyce will be home for Christmas on Friday... Cant wait to see her again....
