Get used to it Mom

Posted 05-01-2009 at 11:48 AM by SpaceGirl'sMom
Let me start this post by admitting that I had been warned. Specifically, I remember txtwinmom told me stories of how she and her daughter would bicker more, as Inprocessing day approached. It's a way to ease separation, since by then you are ready for them to leave you for a while.

I don't like it, THANKYOUVERYMUCH!!

At my house, it's Senior Ball week. Next Friday, the 8th, is the Ball. We've done the dress shopping, we have the hair appointment made, etc. I (innocently)...

I'm moving out

Posted 04-24-2009 at 03:16 PM by SpaceGirl'sMom
To many of you, especially parents, this is a "no duh" kind of post. But, at our house, this was a profound moment.

Around Easter time, my lovely family of five was sitting down to a nice, weekend breakfast. It is something we try to do once a week, if we can swing it. We have the works...pancakes, eggs, sausage or bacon, you get the picture.

We were discussing how my husband's sister, who is almost 26, is moving back home, and my husband was heading out...

I notice with fear and trepidation, that April is almost gone, and then May and then......SUMMERTIME!! Is it that close? We are about to become C3C parents! It seems that the time simply disappeared. I can remember fully, like it was yesterday, when Jeremy first left home to go for In processing! We didn't know anything but what we had learned from the orientation and what we gleaned form various agencies and bulletinn boards. (pssssst! we still don't know much...LOL)!

Well, here we go, my first post in my first blog. It was suggested (thanks AuzmansMOM) that I start a blog, from the perspective of an Appointee Parent.

What can I say...?

I AM NOT READY FOR MY BABY TO LEAVE HOME!!!

Ok, I said it. I admit it. I'm not ready. Yes, I always knew she would go to college, but c'mon, the AIR FORCE ACADEMY!?!?!?!? Could she have picked somewhere with a little less restrictions, maybe?

I've learned something from coming...

Orientation

Posted 04-17-2009 at 02:31 PM by J.NordicSkier7
As many of you know, I went to orientation at USAFA on Monday and Tuesday this week, April 13 and 14. I flew in on Sunday night with my parents via Frontier Airlines (not my favorite) and ate dinner at Salt Grass, a really amazing steak house that I would recommend to anyone who's REALLY hungry. There was SO MUCH FOOD!!! I finished my steak and couldn't even start my sweet potato, because I was afraid I'd explode!

After that fulfilling dinner, I went back to the hotel and...
