Default I don't post often but I need postive thoughts

Ok everyone I'm finally going to post this on here. I've been going through a lot since we got married. We moved our wedding up a year because of his talk about going back into the military. Well then he decided to go back to school for a year and see where that leaves him and about 2 weeks ago or so I don't even know the time any more anyway we got a letter that he is being called back to active duty. He has to report on the 12/3 or 12/4 his choice to Pendelton (sp) to check in. They will update all of his information at that time and tell him when he may be going overseas. Basiclly mylife is upside down right now because now I don't want to move out of my parents house until I find out where he is going to be stationed so I don't make a longer drive for him. I thought I had found a place down south a little that was perfect for us but I just sent an email to them passing on it.

I was ok with him going back in when we were ready but now they are calling him back and it could be as early as the begining of the year. I just wanted to ask for postive thoughts right now in this diffcult time in our lives. We are spending every moment possible with each other right now. Oh yeah and he as lost 20lbs so far so he only has 60-70 more to lose and he is doing it fast by a very tuff diet.

I love you guys and thanks in advance for the thoughts.

You have my thoughts and prayers. You also have my thanks for being a military family, I know how tough that can be (husband was in Navy 10 years). Take care and don't hesitate to complain or lean on your TT family.

I'm sorry things aren't going as you planned sweetheart. From my family, thank you both so much for the huge sacrifices you make daily so we can be safe. It's a very noble and beautiful thing, and I appreciate it. I will pray that things fall into place for you both. God Bless!

Tonya,

Hang in there sweetheart. You're in my thoughts and prayers that they'll decide to pass on reactivating him.

Talking

I really feel ya! My fiance and I were supposed to get married July and he got recalled to active duty and deployed June 6th for 18 months. At least the Marines (I am assuming since it's Pendelton he's a Marine) go for shorter times like 7 months over and 7 back home then 7 over. I am sure you two will pull through it fine and readapt to the new life back in the military. He has a purpose to fufill over there and your purpose will be here. So don;t worry just stay on course and keep your faith. I have prayed like all the time to keep me grounded cause it;s hard but you can make it through. Also the benefits are great! If you are at Pendleton let me know I live by the back gate :-)
