I'm sitting here all alone and I'm pretty much super bored, so I decided to type an actual blog for my blog, so maybe now it will officially be a blog, eh? Are we trackin'?
Okay, so this blog is about how much I dislike Fayetteville. I dream of my beautiful home in Texas, the one that people I don't even know are renting. While they enjoy it, I sit in this apartment and think of ways I could injure Donnie enough to get him discharged from the military so we can move back to Texas...or Utah, either one will work.
I tried really hard to be upbeat about the move. I acted excited for the girls so it wouldn't be so hard on them. Mar still asks when we get to go back to Texas so she can play with all her friends in the neighborhood. I feel like a creep. This apartment complex is HUGE..and it's right outside the gates of post, and can you believe that there isn't ONE child Marlys' age?
So ya. This place sucks. Marlys will be in a gang by the times she's 5. Go Army!
About Me
- Donnie and Kristi
- Deep in the heart (clap clap) of Texas, Tx, United States
- I am a veteran and the wife of a soldier. Together we have spent our adult lifetime serving our Nation, it's soldiers and families that support it. We have lived all over the country and experienced more then we ever expected. It is a life I love and one that I hold very close to me, but one that is bittersweet, filled with both joy and sacrifice, friendship and loss...but it is never without hope.
BLOG PEOPLE
The above picture was taken moments before Donnie's unit left for Iraq in 2004. Marlys was only three months old. To date, that was the hardest day of my life. I stood there and watched them march out the door...making sure that I didn't take my eyes off of him until he was gone. I didn't know if I would ever see him again.

Creative name!
Kristi, I read your blog tonight, and even though I can not begin to imagine how shitty it is to be there with no one to associate with and what not, just remember that it has happened for a reason. Something greater than the army has brought you there. So, just pray about it and things will get better. Love you tons.
I'm so sorry you Hate it there! We totally miss you here and Sophia asks about Marly all the time. Hope things get better for you. Your renters took your flag pole down, did you know about that?
