I am so overwhelmed with everything that happened today, From orders to starting to sell some of our stuff that we do not really need, and its not necessary to take with us overseas. We have raised 200 just today. Selling outdoor toys trampoline and things in that sort. We got rid of one of our 2 dogs. Well family on my husbands side are really pissing me off. We have 6wks till we have to have our stuff ready to be shipped. It takes up to 60 days for the stuff to arrive in germany. That would put it there mid feb, our report date is feb 10. Well i simply stated on fb how overwhelming this is. I wont complain i am coming to terms with it, But my husbands family keeps sending me messages and comments saying stuff like well suck it up uncle sam owns you guys. Complaining wont change it. It pisses me off so bad, cause well first off i NEVER complain about the army. 2nd I understand this is my husbands job. I will not ever walk away from him because i am unhappy about something. I am entitled to dislike something related to the army that is going on in our life. But ya know it gets really old hearing everytime i make a comment on my fb status "oh well i guess you are gonna be one of the military divorce statistics" OR "yeah you are really showing how strong military wives are" REALLY? this is ALOT to take in. My house is going to be empty all but an air mattress and a christmas tree come christmas. I am cool with that, we are clearing base housing the monday after christmas. Then heading to florida to leave the remainder of my christmas decor and presents with my mom. Seeing everyone for 2wks then flying out to germany. *(I dont have exact dates, but this is a pretty close figure that we have going on, after talking to people we know who just left for germany 6mo ago") I am so mad at my husband's family that i really do see why getting mad makes it easier to leave. This morning i was upset to leave all of them, now i am like damn it'll be nice to not deal with their crap for however long. Anyway vent over. I feel better, Venting and a BC powder have my head feeling clear again!!

I'm sorry people are being so insensitive.. that's the last thing you need.. I hope the moving and traveling goes smooth for you. People that make statements like that just need to hear what there saying in put themselves in your shoes.. It sucks that a lot of people don't have common courtesy when it comes to things they say! Hope you don't let it get you down! Hugs!!

I hate people. Like I'm not going to even lie. They are mean and stupid, and I just can't handle their antics. I HATE when people tell me things about my life that I already know. like "Uncle Sam owns you?" Really? I would have lost it. ILY & I hope everything cools down. Hey Germany sounds like an adventure! You'll have to tell us all about it! :wiggle:

I just stalked your facebook page cause I was gunna put my two cents in for you but I couldn't find the comments you were talking about so I'm guessin you either delted them or they sent them to you privately...anyway. F' them! ;) lol It sucks that people are like that. I hated when people would tell me "well you knew he was going to deploy" Well yeah I did but that doesn't make it easier. You may be stronger than most and people may expect that of you but that doesn't mean you can't be overwhelmed.

I'm sorry they're upsetting you! I hate when people are insensitive.

Thanks mere, You know how the inlaws bug me, LOL you have heard the stories for almost 3 yrs now. haha. I got emails on my yahoo. and then a couple private messages on fb. It bugs me. I just can't stand it. I have been strong for 5 years, I can break down every now and then. Its my inlaws that make me strong. I dont want to show any sign of weakness around them for these reasons. I dont think i was complaining on fb, more like making it known so that my military girlies could share advice or whatever with me. everyone needs a little encouragement sometimes! i appreciate all the love and support you all have shown me!

Ehh In-laws... In my opinion the mean ones (since there are the lucky women out there that love there in-laws) should be banished to an island in the middle of no where so they can all just complain to each other... I know how crappy in-laws can be.. & I know what you mean by trying to stay strong in front of them! Your stronger then you know for dealing with them for so long!! Hope they start keeping there "opinions" to themselves.. They need to learn.. if we want your opinion we'll ask.. otherwise keep it to yourself! Stay Strong It'll all calm down and get better! :)

You know if they can't be supportive then they need to just not say anything. Yes it's part of hubs job, but that doesn't mean it's easy or simple. Sometimes you just have to get it out there in order to get it straightened out in your own head and move on with it all. Don't let them get to ya. They may not support you, but we all do, and I for one am excited for you!!
