After tonight, who knows where we'll be tomorrow

What if we're never here again

ASHLEY, COMMANDING OFFICER.
...is back in Colatown, for good. My inspection on the base house was done this morning at 0900 sharp. Everything was a-okay and checked out fine. The only charge I occurred was the pet fee that I expected. We should start receiving full BAH here very soon, which is refreshing. I'm not gonna lie, it was kind of sad to leave. This was Tomato and I's first house together. It's where we started our married journey. I cried. I mean, I feel like I'm letting him go...in a sense. He's coming back...but it's like you could literally see a chapter of our lives ending and another one beginning. It was the first time we really lived together...like I said, it was kind of like letting all that go. I wasn't ready for those emotions, mostly because I disliked Jacksonville so much. I just wasn't expecting it.

Everything is in storage, which was a chore. It's so HOT here. I'm glad I got climate controlled storage. Very glad for that. I'm also glad for the help of my family. There is no way I could have moved all that stuff without them. I never realized that I had so much CRAP. Now, I'm in the room over the garage at my parent's house and have only a fraction of my belongings. It's so weird.

Just need to readjust.

TOMATO, THE HUBS.
...has gotten to call me everyday since he's been gone. I don't know how much longer I can count on that though. He sounds so tired. I made him a care package today. It wasn't decorated or anything special this time. I figure that I will make more "fun" ones as time passes. I just really packed the stuff he needed this go 'round. I'm so thankful that he's alright and doing well. I'm so blessed to get to talk to him. I miss him, every second of every day.

ZERO, THE DRAGON.
...has to adjust as well. He's not used to living with three midget dogs, who don't like to share. My heart breaks for him. He wants the bulldogs to pay tuggy with him so bad he can't stand it. The bulldogs don't understand the concept of tuggy and just want to have Zero's toys for themselves. I've caught PJ up here sneaking toys out and trying to eat Zero's food. Zero doesn't seem to mind though. He thinks it interesting to have other dogs around.

30 DAY PHOTO CHALLENGE
Day 15
(something you want to do before you die)
A lot of things, I imagine. Just can't think of one right now. Sorry.
