Expectations of Deployment
Now that we’ve had our homecoming, a huge weight is lifted and we can reflect on the past number of months. In the beginning of deployment, I, along with the other gals of hearts apart, made a “dream board” based on what we wanted to accomplish during the deployment. My board was as follows: … Continue reading
we are restricted to weekends.
So you may have noticed, I am getting behind on posts. Obviously school has started and is taking its toll on our free spirits.

Not Just Literally
I feel like i’ve created a few hundred blogs (3 or 4) but they all fail… I don’t update often. I feel like when starting a blog you are forced to pick a theme or something along the lines that you will always talk about, like the title of your blog must be directly connected … Continue reading
