The low blow.

For the past 48 hours, a world of stress unloaded on me here. Thursday My leadership had told me to “stay flexible”… like I just planned to run to the court house real quick… no turkey heads, I have been planning this wedding for almost 12 months now and you’re telling me to be flexible? Come up with a back up plan? Holy-hell. I was informed Friday that I would not be able to go home on leave in time for my wedding on June 7th… That day I was devastated. Cried for countless hours, and hit a real rock bottom low. Didn’t fall asleep till way late and was up all too early. The following morning I woke up and decided I was going to do what ever I could to get my wedding back. I sent a few emails, and started pushing buttons. Probably opened my mouth more than I should have about what was going on, griping to those who needed to know, those who could talk to the right people. And by 3pm, I was informed that they were able to find a slot for myself AND my better half to fly home in time for our wedding… pshew… Never have I been so relieved.  Now I need to get my rear in gear and go to the gym… Big sand storm hit today. Ick! Take care all!!
