Another let down


And the blows keep coming, one right after the next. My hubby was supposed to go away to AIT which would have allowed for the kids and I to get out of this place for a bit and it would have helped him get his agr package together because he would have a mos in the army's eyes. It would have also financially helped. We found out he won't be going which quickly killed my hope of escaping this hell hole. That was the first blow... the second was finding out my hubby didn't get selected for a job that he is more than qualified for. This job would have taken us back home, back where we want to be. Devastated is an understatement. For the past 16 months we have been trying to find a way out. A way back to where we belong. Right now it is like we are in foreign land. This culture is not ours. We long for our friends and people with morals. This is our second summer here in alabama and it is turning out to be just as crappy as our first. The kids sleep all day and play video games all night. Who can blame them when there isnt anything to look forward to waking up for. No friends to hang out with, no places to visit, no travel planned. Just 100 degrees with and an ac that won't keep up. Memories should be in the making, instead they are day dreaming of their past.
