On The Road Again

We've been here at Fort Bragg North Carolina for two months now. We're finally feeling settled in, London's adjusted to her new school and we've all made new friends. Daniel had his surgery to fix his wrist and is healing really well. We've been waiting to get our orders to permanent Duty Station. It came last week, and guess where we're going??? Vicenza Italy! Daniel and I had talked about where we'd like to get stationed, and we both agreed that it would be a really great opportunity to go overseas. Are you kidding me. Italy...what a dream come true!

Ok it all sounds so wonderful, but now reality has set in. Paperwork, Paperwork, and more Paperwork. Getting anything done in the Army is impossible. They send you here for one thing and there for another, but first you need paperwork from over there. You have to make an appointment for everything and no one is happy to help you, or very helpful for that matter. It's enough to make a person MAD as a HATTER.

Army wife tip #1... keep your sense of humor.
