Wow....who'd ever think I would be happy to hear Trevor is at a FOB...WOOT WOOT!!!
I was saying to my sister....the funny thing is....in the beginning, when this whole idea of Trevor being "over there" was new, Just the thought of him BEING THERE was hell enough...then when I found out he was heading out to a FOB (Forward Operating Base) I cryed myself to sleep for two nights in a row...THEN when I found out he'd be out in the middle of nowhere for the next GODKNOWS how many days, in the middle of a MISSION....I B.A.W.L.E.D....I literally was a stump for like 5 days in a row. But I slowly became numb to the reality of what he was doing (which is really easy to do when they are so far away)...and after about 6 or so more days Trevor called me today to tell me he was back at a FOB!!! WOOHOOO......it's hilarious that I know think....we've hit rock bottom....he's been out in the middle of a mission....in the middle of nowhere....fighting...interacting with "the people". Now, we can only go backwards....and back IS AWESOME!!! AN FOB IS FRIGGIN FANTASTIC....DO you know what an FOB means?!?!?! IT MEANS INTERNET ACCESS...E-MAILS & MSN (though very few and far between, BUT SO MUCH MORE THAN WHEN HE WAS ON A MISSION FOR 2 WEEKS STRAIGHT!!! WOOT WOOT!!!....Oh I NEVER thought the day when I would be happy to know he was at an FOB would COME!!! THANK you THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The Little Things...
It's missing the little things that really start to add up...
When you miss,
Him cleaning my glasses for me every morning, even though I never asked him to...
Him making sure I'm in bed and then turning off the lights for me...
Us brushing our teeth together in the mornings...
His kiss on my forehead every morning before leaving for work...
Him opening the car door for me EVERYTIME, even though I try racing him to the door so I can open it myself for once...
Him holding me (or my hand if I need space) until I fall asleep every night...
Him absent-mindedly playing with the ring on my hand while he talks to someone else...
Him carrying my luggage or lap-top to my car for me...
Him writing messages to me in the fogged up mirror after his shower because he knows I'll be taking one after him...
Him helping me make my bed in the morning (even if he doesn't know how to place throw pillows...LOL!)....
Him helping me change the sheets on the bed, and then catching me in the sheets and tickling me until I can't breathe...
Him wiping the tears off my cheeks when I cry...
Him trying to help me put my pants on, but pulling them up WAY too high each time *giggle*...
Him letting my dog out to go, instead of me...
Him hugging me outside the back door every day when he comes home from work and always telling me how good I look or how nice I smell...
It's those tiny things that seem so daily and that I took for granted, until I realized that they really mean so much...and add up so quickly when he's gone. Now I know...I will never take those sorts of things for granted...and I know I will never stop loving this man...
Come home safe baby...I Hope I hear from you soon...Merry Christmas..<3

EFFIN CELL PHONES :( BOO!
So...It's been 1 week since I've heard from Trevor...as of tomorrow this has officially been the longest we've ever gone without some sort of connection...
BUT....Guess who tried calling me this morning from a satellite phone?! Trevor! But...he called my cell phone...at 8:30am...I was sleeping...in the basement...Guess where my cell phone has not reception? IN THE DAMN BASEMENT...so all I hear this morning is the lovely crackling on the Satellite phone...and the sporatic bursts of "hello?!?!...Hel..?!?!"...and then nothing...as 10 seconds later my cell phone loses all reception...[Insert creative and bountiful amount of swear words here]
GAH...JUST SHOOT ME IN THE DAMN HEAD NOW!! Since I talk to this other lady who's hubby is deployed to the same FOB...he's an engineer....so guess what....HER AND HER HUBBY TALK EVERY DAMN DAY :(...Boo!
Oh...Merry Christmas...(no sarcasm intended...I love the holidays!)
Enjoy family and food...remember...the calories you eat from Dec. 20-Jan.3 don't count...all the laughter you enjoy during the holiday season burns it off :D)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Crap...Stupid holidays
So...I officially broke down at work today...oy...I NEVER cry at work.
AND...I was doing sssoo well for a while...I am now officially able to count DOWN the days, instead of UP, because we've hit the "half-way" mark for his tour. AND I was uber excited about Christmas and all....and then...Around 10am at work today...I just broke down...on the phone with my mom. She told me she was going to buy presents for me FROM TREVOR....so that I can open presents "from Trevor" on Christmas day. I don't know what it was....but I just lost it, I started bawling on the phone. It doesn't help that our office is as tiny as a fat man's bathroom and that everyone can hear me on the phone. I knew it was just one of those moments that pop up out of nowhere and hit you hard, but only last for about an hour. Yet, this time it happened at work...not cool :(
It's just that the holiday season is such an incredible time for my family...we are all so close and we always make Christmas a big deal, and all I see are people with their loved ones for Christmas, and I won't have Trevor around for our FIRST Christmas together. Also, our 6 month mark is coming up in about a week and it all just hit me today when my mom called. I just want him home so bad, I can't imagine how he is feeling with Christmas right around the corner and NOONE to celebrate with, as he is out at a FOB fighting on the front lines....the only Christmas tree is in the Engineer's tent...and it is a marijuana tree *GIGGLE* with candy canes hanging from it. He must be feeling so alone...and I hate that idea that he might be feeling that way...I want to hold that man so bad, and today was just one of those days....BUT
My sister brought in to the office this AWESOME S'MORE MAKING MACHINE...with mini flames....so after I cried in the bathroom for about an hour, she made me s'mores to make me feel better....it was great! Except I stabbed my thumb with the spear...and it bled on my marshmallow *HEHEHEHE* oh man...I have such great stories to tell Trevor when he comes home...I just hope that comes faster than it feels right now...

A Poem <3
Well...lots has happened to me in the last week, so I don't really know where to start. So I've decided just to post a poem...I hope this touches others as much as it touched me...
The Army Girlfriend
Everyone hears of the Army Wife,
Her trials, sacrifices, and devoted life.
She is strong, she is brave, and she is loving indeed,
Standing by her man in his time of need.
But what of others in a similar situation,
Who have made being an Army girlfriend their main occupation?
They suffer many of the same trials and many of the same fears
Without the security of future years.
Will there be peace or will there be war?
You try to be hopeful but it's hard to ignore.
The world seems to be falling apart
When, to a soldier, you have given your heart.
Your love runs too deep to escape from it now.
Your hope to be together somewhere, somehow,
When his duty is over and your life can begin.
You wonder if it will happen but don't question when.
The many heartbreaks and the times you did weep
When he made promises the Army couldn't keep.
But you have learned so much together and come so far.
Others warned you not to fall in love but you already are.
His job is ever-changing and takes him far away.
You think of him always and pray every day--
For his safety, his courage, and his love for you
That he remain steadfast, loyal, and ever true.
Nothing is sure and nothing is set in stone.....
Except that he will leave again and you will be alone,
Holding tightly to your dreams of a future together
When you will at last be able to say the word "forever."
Tears have become anything but a stranger.
They fall freely in sadness, loneliness, and anger.
But he will never know because you will never tell.
You've learned to hide your misery only too well.
A few years? That doesn't sound like so long.
The letters and phone calls keep your love going strong,
Even when they are few and far between,
In them, his love for you can clearly be seen.
So keep your chin up and a smile on your face.
He is protecting your freedom and keeping you safe.
His heart is strong and his love is true
And don't ever forget that he is missing you too.
I Love You Baby...Come Home Safe...I'll See You Soon <3

Relieved...and it's 2 months today!
So Trevor called during lunch as I was teaching my class in Calgary. We talked for 50 MINUTES!!! Wow am I relieved. Except....
Trevor had pretty much prepaired himself for the fact that I was going to break up with him. He thought I was finally through with this military bullshit and thought I was going to end our relationship. I literally almost puked...my stomach was moving and I was feeling nauseous. I couldn't leave this man if I WANTED TO...and some days I wish my life was normal...but leaving Trevor could never happen as that thought is about A MILLION times worse then having to wait for him to come home, belive me...once he comes home, it will all seem worth it. He is the perfect man for me....and the most kind hearted gentlemen...I thank God everyday for putting him in my life...AND HIS FAMILY....don't even get me started...THEY ARE WONDERFUL....I can't believe I was blessed with such an incredible man, let alone him having an EXTREMELY supportive and FUN family! Trevor and I worked things out on the phone...I wasn't mad...it was just easier to take all my life's problems out on Trevor because he's gone, and it's so easy to dissociate from that. But we did need to work some more communication into our situation, so we are both working on it. He is my rock. I bet there have been a few guys over there who've been dumped recently, and that is probably why Trevor was so worried. I can't imagine what it's like to be in the evironment he's in Everyday...rockets...gunfire...alarms...sleeping on cots...under tents....Dust EVERYwhere!! People yelling...adrenlaine 24/7...the poor guy said it felt like it was still OCTOBER....he sounded EXTREMELY depressed when I told him Christmas was in 2 weeks...Wow....he really just wants to come home...I've never heard him so needing something...and he needs to be home...well... AT LEAST IT'S THE TWO MONTH MARK TODAY!!...WE'VE MADE IT TWO MONTHS....only 2 1/2 more left :( lol....We're not even half way through....but almost...and we can do it baby...we can :D

Going Away for a bit again...No News From Trevor...
Hey Y'all *giggle*,
I'm leaving for Calgary tomorrow afternoon. I'll be there until next Monday, Therefore I won't be posting much on here.

Now I need to unpackish my stuff from California, and repackish for a whole other week away from home...ugh...Packing isn't so bad...but the unpacking is the worst....BUT I GET TO DO LAUNDRY...I LOVE LAUNDRY *laugh*...I know...I'm a geek....But I bet Trevor is happy about me liking to do laundry *wink*!
Anywho...I'm postponing my unpackingish/repackingish...I don't want to do it...maybe I'll go do a load of Towels...I hate washing towels...I don't know why...that's kind of a weird fact about me...hmmm....weird...

Life...Changes...
So....I'm back....California...or more specifically Marina Del Rey, L.A. was BEAUTIFUL AND SUNNY! (P.S. NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO DRIVE DOWN THERE...I was putting my life in my hands by driving down there...everyone has a ding/scratch/dent in their vechicle *giggle*).
But...I'm officially diagnosed with something called Fibromyaglia...that's not so bad I guess...but the kicker is...I am most positively going to pass it on to any children I have...SHIT...UGH...DAMNIT...lol...
Plus...Today was one of the worst days...The funny thing is....it started of so Fantastic!!!
I have been off of work for the last 2 WEEKS!! One week for healing of my wisdom teeth, and one week for Cali, I just got back to work this morning...I WAS ESCTATIC...DELIGHTED....I ACTUALLY wanted to go to work...I WAS PUMPED...I missed work!!! HAHAHAHAH!!!
The day started off wonderful...I was crazy busy catching up on work so the day FLEW...I think I only thought about Trevor 3 times LOL!
Then, the "OFFICE MANAGER" as she LIKES TO CALL HERSELF *rollseyes* called me abruptly into the conference room in front of all the other co-workers. She shuts the door and life went downhill from there. I can't exlain everything as you would need extensive amounts of background info, but basically that finished and I spoke with another co-worker in Kelowna and I got shut down there too....so I was feeling pretty damn shitty...to top it off...the loader in my boyfriend's tank called his wife today....she got a 20 minute call...and I got nothing...and I miss him so much...especially after this day. TO end an EXTREMELY LONG story, I went home and bawled...I ended up calling my boss and basically giving her my two weeks notice...unfortunately...she works in Calgary, and I have been scheduled to go down there this Sunday for all of next week. SO now I will be talking with her Tuesday night to determine what I will do. To be honest, I applied at another job today already, as I have never felt so defeated in a work place before. The weird part is....life at our work place is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE as our branch in another province. WHY?!?! Because of ONE SINGLE coworker...who beyond my HUGE AMOUNT of years of social working, I CANNOT COPE WITH...she actually has made me never want to work again...and my boss understand that! WEIRD...
But I applied at a place that could be considered the least guessable. I feel terrible because My boyfriend will have no idea what hit him when he get's my e-mail. He's in the 'Ghan and has missed huge chunks of my life, and it is sssooo diffcult to explain to him in "once-a-week" phone calls. The poor guy must feel completely out of the loop. Especially when he finds out I applied for a job with WestJet, he will have no idea where that came from, and that kind of job opens it's OWN can of worms with him and I....shit....What am I getting into with him around for support...and I'm doing such a lowsy job of suporting him....ugh...I need sleep...
But...I'm officially diagnosed with something called Fibromyaglia...that's not so bad I guess...but the kicker is...I am most positively going to pass it on to any children I have...SHIT...UGH...DAMNIT...lol...

The weird part is....life at our work place is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE as our branch in another province. WHY?!?! Because of ONE SINGLE coworker...who beyond my HUGE AMOUNT of years of social working, I CANNOT COPE WITH...she actually has made me never want to work again...and my boss understand that! WEIRD...
But I applied at a place that could be considered the least guessable. I feel terrible because My boyfriend will have no idea what hit him when he get's my e-mail. He's in the 'Ghan and has missed huge chunks of my life, and it is sssooo diffcult to explain to him in "once-a-week" phone calls. The poor guy must feel completely out of the loop. Especially when he finds out I applied for a job with WestJet, he will have no idea where that came from, and that kind of job opens it's OWN can of worms with him and I....shit....What am I getting into with him around for support...and I'm doing such a lowsy job of suporting him....ugh...I need sleep...

There go my last hopes...
SO I was clinging onto the fact that Trevor hasn't even left the Kandahar base yet...I knew he was at least relatively safe there....And then the article came out today....I was wondering why Trevor didn't come on msn this morning....Well I got a nice surprise as to why...
All Tanks got shipped out to fight on the front lines to support the infantry. He is now at a FOB, which is about as safe as Sandbags. FUCK!...
I give up...I can't even rant on this issue because I don't know where to start and all I want to do is curl up on my bed and sleep....Maybe I'll handle these emtions better later and I can post another one...

CALI HERE I COME!!!
SO...I am officially leaving for the Sunshine STATE TOMORROW!!! WOOT WOOT!!! But I am nervous...This is only the second time I have been on a plane....and it's not like this trip is just a vacation...I'm going to see a doctor. Ugh...I keep asking my mom if there will be needles...and she avoids the question...AAAAAGGGGHHHHH I HAVE A PHOBIA OF NEEDLES...
BUT! We are going to....wait for it....wait for it.....DISNEYLAND! (and that new park they built) And my goal of this trip is to take as many damn pictures as I can.
Pictures...These are for Trevor. I want him to come home feeling like he was a part of my life while he was gone...not like he missed out on a third of my year. If he sees pictures of what I did and what I went through, I'm hoping this will help him feel like he was there....I really hope....
That's my goal....To make Trevor feel like he was THERE....like he did all those things with me, because to me he was there...in Spirit....I Love You Baby...See you in a "couple of weeks" *wink*
