Living in Savannah

Just the everyday saga of a military family who is living in the beautiful surroundings of Savannah GA. The husband is an MP with previous deployments to Iraq and looking at a medical retirement with the wife going to nursing school full time not to mention they have 3 kids and 3 dogs!

2004 is almost gone!

I remember last year dragging by, in large part because Ben was not here, but this year has flown by! Tomorrow we all will be getting ready to celebrate the New Year. I feel thankful for Ben being here, returning safely from Iraq this past March and starting to recuperate from his ankle surgery and seeing positive results, that his orders have been deferred to go to Germany than Iraq until March, that my kids are healthy and happy, that my mom could spend another holiday with us, for all of my friends that I have made in Georgia and my J-land friends....you guys are the best :) Also thankful for bloglines.com that let's me know when you all post a new entry :) and that I passed my first semester of classes. I have gotten so much support from family, friends and friends in J-land for my schooling that it makes it a lot easier. Thanks one and all and I wish you a safe, blessed, peaceful and happy 2005! Godspeed our servicepeople....

I agree that this year has gone by way too fast. There are some events from this year, that were not so fun, that made me happy for it going by fast. Then, when it comes to realizing that my children are growing up so fast, I'm like...Ok...everything needs to SLOW DOWN! hehe
I'm so glad that you have so many things to be thankful and happy about.
