Day 26 of the Challenge!

Good morning!! all this pollen sure is getting the best of us here at the houtshold! Sis is coughing up a storm this morning, My throat is all itchy along with my eyes, and my nose is so gross. Bri always is suffering from allergies, but slade seems to be doing the best! Good for him, because the rest of us are feeling lousy! They are currently eating Captain Crunch all berries, drinking chocolate milk, all while sitting on the couch watching umizoomi. The dog is sizing up their bowls, figuring out what is the best way to do the sneak attack...... All while licking her chops...... haha. So that is my morning. I woke up a 3:30 am because i couldnt sleep and something was stabbing my ribs! What was stabbing me you ask? Well i fell asleep on my glasses, so they were all bent and one of the ear pieces was flipped upwards, thus stabbing me. Had to unbend them like a pretzel this morning.... Yikes! Guess i was more tired than i thought last night! haaahaaa!! Well, lets get started.....

Day 26:  A person you wish you lived closer to, and Why?: 

Well, as being part of the Military, and moving around so much; You can't just pick ONE individual you wish you lived closer to. There are numerous people, in bunches of different places. Sometimes i wish that i could just move all of us into one place, with all the proper jobs and we can all be one happy community. In the real live world, that isn't possible, but one could only wish....right?!

Some of the obvious people I would love to live closer to, are my top 10.... The ones you read about yesterday. If you didn't read yesterday, they are My parents, and my sisters family. Living by them would make things so much more fun, and i could watch my niece and nephews grow in person, and not in pictures. I think out of all of the "downs" of being a military family, one of the worst, is missing out on the important things. Such as Hazel and Ezra's birthdays, and firsts. I always wanted to be the best Aunt, the cool one, The one they could go to when Mommy said no. But i can't be that, and it tears at my heart. The best i can do, is make up for it when I am around. Its not fair, and its not easy, but that is the path we have to take, so instead of looking down upon it, i take the best things i can away from this!

Other people i would LOVE to live closer to, are Stephanie & the zalba family, Jozie, Heather & ambria, The mrozinkskis, the ROBERTSONS, the MURRAYSSS!!!! the huey family, my grandparents, the rest of my/our family/cousins/uncles/aunts and friends!!!! ....... Sharing weddings and showers, seeing them the way everyone else does, instead of being on the outside of the loop. But again it isn't possible, so just bear and grin it.

We have lived in 2 different places in DC, so we made family there. The people i wish I could live closer to out of our "family" there are Janina & the rest of the Blairs, Elizabeth Killingbeck and her little family, Lauren, Ali callies, The amazing white family, The CRIOLLO family!, the Likens family........Oh boy, there is just SO many people that I wish i could live by. But thankfully we keep in touch and thats the second best thing!

We can't always get our way, but we can try our hardest to stay in contact. Its the name of the game, goodbyes are common, but hopefully your paths cross again and you can see them on a daily basis again. But the most important thing is, that they were in my life for when i needed them, and they will be there again. Thats how life goes.

I love you all!!
