Well it has been awhile since I have come on here, but Ryan has been bugging me about it soo...here you go Ryan!

I suppose I may have been avoiding coming on here simply because it just continues to mean that Josh will be gone! I have my good days and my bad days. Most are good though. I feel like I already miss him...is that possible?

Josh had drill again this weekend. They told him they would issue him uniforms next month. He won't be there though. He will be in good ol' Missourri! 21 days from now, just 3 weeks (yikes) he will be in Knoxville at MEPS set to leave out the next morning! MEPS is the Military Entrance Processing Station.

I sometimes wish there was a way around this but there isn't. Not one that will make him as happy as the thought of going and dominating something for 3 months will. I know I will get to talk to him more after basic training so I am not nearly as worried about the last two months he will be gone. He deserves to feel good about himself and his life again. He missed out on that so much. He is an excellent example of a man. Someday he will be a wonderful father and this is the start to the way our lives were meant to be!
