Good pics
Thanks for the pics from the party guys they are great! We've been very sad around the Spangler house. Not a day passes where we don't have sad times. Ali talks about her dad all the time and about missing him. We try to talk to him often but I'm afraid that will all come to a halt soon. He will either be off the 14,15 or 16th we just don't know yet. Talk about last minute. He doesn't find out his schedule for the next day until late in the evening the night before sometimes.
We are still having fun but we are all pretty lonely. I'm working on a package to send to him in Afganastan. We've been told not to expect any communication with our spouses for about a month or so after they leave the states. Mark is hoping for better than that but we'll see. I never hope for the best with the Army.
Please pray for us as our tennant in the condo is breaking her lease for a job change to CA. I am at a complete loss because I don't know how I am going to handle this. Not only do I have to deal with the lease break but also deciding what to do with the condo. Mark and I only have a day or two more to talk about it. I'm on my own. It sucks and I'm good but not that good. It is hard to find tennants and do all the leg work, repairs and crap that goes along with renting with two little ones in tow. Not to mention soon to be three under three. I need God to sort this all out for me cause I can't think straight enough to deal with all this as Mark leaves.
I did meet some wives from Mark's Batallion this week. Hopefully I will be seeing them a little more often. It is nice to know that everyone else is not put together either and that everyone's kids are just nutts. Hopefully this nutts phase won't last long. Ali doesn't like to be left alone at all and neither does Micah. Needless to say I don't get time alone even to shower. Again I hope that this is just a phase but whatever I guess. At the very least I know all the wives are going through similar feats. I'll surely let everyone know stuff as I do. I have an address for him if you want to e-mail me so I know I have everyone's correct e-mails. Then I can send it that way instead of over the blog.
Please pray for us. We like to compare ourselves to Job. When we do, no matter how stinky it is, it just ain't THAT bad.
