SQUEALING WITH DELIGHT!
Well the whiskey is kicking in and I'm not feeling the pain in my back, hips or palms of my hands.
I just got a post card from "one of my boys" that just got home from the sand box. Well, he's been home for a few months now, but he's finally returning to So. Calif. He wants to buy me a beer and help me drink a few too! I'm so excited to meet him and his wife. I will also be making a trek up to LAX to meet with another service memeber I've met through Soldier's Angels. She has a 2 hour lay over, so I think I'll jet on up there and meet her!
I've also gotten my application to subject two marines to my dysfunctional family on Thanksgiving. Of course the slut in me is thinking "MMMMMM yeah baby! Men in uniform!!!", but soon as I take a look at that sweet young face, mommy mode kicks in. We get the boys that just come out of basic training and are not allowed to fly home yet. Yeah, I'm pretty geeked out right now.
