Just in case you were having a bad day..

By -
Just in time for Happy Picture Wednesday.. my hubby sent me an email entitled "Just in case you were having a bad day."

"These guys, well technically one guy and four girls, are being picked up to be sent back to the states soon. A guy is paying to have it all taken care of. We got them all vaccinations so we didn't have to worry about rabies, but Army rules still say they can't be here with us. So it was either get them out of here or put them down. Rumor has it they are being sent into the military working dog program. So those are possible future bomb sniffers and bad guy catchers..."

That's right.. puppies! So cute!! Some guys in James's base found the mother when she was still pregnant and adopted them. These pictures definitely made my day.

    So presh! I'm surprised, but happy to hear that they are coming to the states! Stephen befriended a puppy that he named Oso (short for Oh-So-Cute.) He's staying in A-stan though.*

Communication During Ranger School: A Recap

Update October 5, 2017: It's been 6 years and I still get a ton of hits on this post. This post will still give you a good overview. As I understand it, this information is still up to date, with the exception that they can no longer receive food in care packages except one at the completion of phase 3. For the most up-to-date info, join this facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/rangersupport/ So since this was something that I googled a lot over, I thought I would write a post on my own experience of all my communication with my husband during Ranger School. Letters: It took about 5 days for each of my letters to get from James to me, once they were sent out (and sometimes it would take 3 or 4 days for them to be sent out). Now.. I live all the way in Chicago area, so that's why it took so long. A friend of mine that I met on twitter while our men were both are Ranger School, Lindsey , got hers in about 3 days, but she lives in Tennessee. The first letter I g...

Ranger Care Package & Florida Update

I got a letter last night! The bad news is that he said his chances of recycling were pretty high. He said that he heard rumors that his company had the harshest graders and they also said that they would grade officers harder than the enlisted guys. Great. So I'm praying hard. If he recycles, it pushes back graduation almost a month. He did include a food wish list! He said he was craving baked goods after all of the processed MREs. Ranger students can receive care packages at the end of each phase. Otherwise, they aren't allowed to be sent food, except for non-caffeinated gum. I've been putting gum sticks in each of his letters. He'll be able to bring the food and magazines I send him on the 4 hour bus ride back to Fort Benning after Phase 3. His wishlist included: Cake Mix Cookies Trail Mix Puppy Chow (yes, he underlined this one) Cheese-its Beefy Jerky Pepperoni Slices Peanut M&Ms Magazines (like Runner's World and Outdoor) So last night I ha...

MilSO Care Package: Deployment Survival Kit

Yep, you read that right. A care package for MilSOs. I decided that MilSOs (Military Significant Others) should get care packages sometimes too. I got the idea from this really cute Deployment Survival Kit that I found on Pinterest by Scraptastic Voyage. I stole most of the ideas from there, so be sure to check out hers too. I have two girlfriends whose men are about to go through deployments, so I made one for each of them. I took pictures of all the things that I included. MilSO Care Package/ Deployment Survival Kit  For the nights that it's hard to fall asleep: For late nights and early mornings on Skype: To wipe away the tears (of sadness by also of joy when he comes home!) A Bible for courage and strength: Mounds: To remind you of the "mounds" of support you have from family and friends. Laffy Taffy: For remembering to laugh. Lifesavers: To remind you that you're his lifesaver. Marbles (for when you've lost yours): Anti-stres...
