BeYOUtiful with AVON

Brandon's leave dates have changed AGAIN!! He won't be home till the end of the year/Jan. 1...this sucks! He was suppose to be home Dec 21...when I'm off from work but now I'll be in school when he's home. He's happy about though cause he wants to come in and see my students. He said "This way I can come in and see our kids" He cracks me up! He's doing well over there and finally got to post some pics on myspace! I think I may share some of those on here cause they are VERY interesting to see LOL... This is a pic of Brandon's whole team RBT-South. They are at the border of Syria and Iraq right now and just finished a mision at the border of Jordan and Saudi Arabia. They are a great group of guys! This is Brandon on his flight to his new home! Isn't he cute!! This is such a cool pic! I had found a leaf that looked like a heart and spelled I Overall...Brandon is doing wonderful! He misses the states but he's pushing through one day ...

Well...I'm getting super duper excited for Brandon to be home!!! I can't believe there are onl 29 days left till I get to hug him!! We are going to NC for New Years and I am pumped about that! It will be nice to be away from KY for New Years and to just be able to focus on him! I get to talk to him less and less now but sometimes that's a choice made and not something that has to happen. He keeps saying that he knows I'll understand if he doesn't call and that he gets too tired and all that jazz...yeah I understand but I'm a girl-hearing from him is like giving me a shot of adrenaline! Myspace and iPhone are my lifelines to him...it sucks sometimes but I know in the end it will be worth it. My sister is 13 today and that is just crazy to me! It seems like she should still be 3...where did time go? (that makes me sound old LOL) She had a party here at my Nana's lastnight and now Nana is up cleaning after them...go figure! That's how it goes in th...

I'm doing laundry and the snow is falling...if only it would accumulate! I'm super excited about being able to talk to Brandon this morning...even if it was 3 a.m. He could call any time and I'd answer!! I love hearing him...it's sooo reassuring! He can't wait to be home and I can't wait to have him here. I got to surprise his mom today with the news that he's coming home earlier...she was thrilled! She said "well I know what you'll be doing for Christmas!" She's funny! I'll probably be living with them for those two weeks LOL!! It's gonna be awesome to see him at the airport and just run up and kiss him!! OMG!!! Ok...I'm gonna go now! -Barbara

For some reason I have always wanted to be the person that could help others. I try to do that but sometimes it goes unappreciated. So...I'm done!! I'm washing my hands clean of it all. If you make it,you make it. If you stay miserable,you stay miserable! I'm turning the other cheek and letting you deal with it! Enjoy!

So...I'm the most happy girl in the world!! Brandon was suppose to come home in February from Iraq but has changed his leave days. He wasn't going to tell me but he stinks at keeping things from me! He's coming home for Christmas and New Year's!!! OMG!!! I'm so very very very excited! I miss him more than can be imagined!
