:]

So finally I have everything completed aside from this interview which was promised to happen on Monday. So from what I can gather I'll have my interview on Monday and then go to MEPS Wednesday and come home Thursday night and hopefully leave the following Monday.
I hope that this is really it. I have been praying for this to happen for such a long time and I think finally I am prepared. I have been focusing on the exercises I'll be doing in Basic and I know that I will be able to run my mile easily and also do those 3 push ups without any problems. Sit ups still hurt once I get past 15 but it's nothing that a weekend of maxing out my muscles can't cure :]
I am so happy about this. It has been a long journey to this point and I know that I am doing this for the right reasons and that everything will work out. I think I've explained this before but I have been doing housework around here in exchange for my room and board. I have just scrubbed the house top to bottom and I am very pleased with the results, I can only hope that my mother notices it. She hasn't been feeling well lately and she had to work tonight so I thought it would be nice for her to come home to a nice clean house. 
I also haven't cried in a while. I have had plenty of reasons to, however I have been trying my hardest to hold back tears when I'm upset. I don't want to look like I'm weak and I know that as soon as a big scary man starts yelling at me I'll break down so fast but for now I feel like I stand a semi-chance ha.
Okay well that's about it. I'll have a lot more details Monday so until then...
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

  1. catie....yeah! finally! It must be a vegetable soup of emotions for you! excited, scared, anxiety, thrill, anticipation....Hooray! As for the holding back the tears, I don't know what to tell you.
    I did receive your e-mail with your recruiters info, so I will write to you while you are in basic. You will do great, it is where you are meant to be when you are meant to be there!
    Stay Strong!
    Pray Hard!
