The heat is almost unbearable outsite. The temp is not that high but the humidity must be 100%.

I sit at my dining room table looking out of my patio doors and can see so many neighbors prepare to PCS. Moving trucks have taken over the streets. I don't see how they can work in this heat.

Before I get into everything that's happened in my life, I want to thank those that shared their experiences, words of encouragement, and introduced me to a slice of their lives. It was uplifting to see that there are other strong women out there that care enough to share with me how to push through the hard times, and that there is an end to the hardships of our husbands being deployed. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Things have been slow around the home front here.…

I had a hard time trying to get back into shape after I gave birth. I tried all kinds of diets, yet nothing work. I had lose over 30 pounds in order to fit into my uniform again, so I decided to try the Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge and thus far, I have lost over 20 pounds. Yes, 20!
