Book Description
Welcome to my unpredictable life.
I (am) was a Career Military Wife … (you can take the wife out of the Military but you can’t take the Military out of the wife lol). To say my life is boring or dull would be a major understatement! Especially now that my Husband has retired from the USAF after 22 years of dedicated service. I have no idea what is in store for me, for our family, for our marriage now that the Military way of life has come to an end for us. But we are sure as daylights going to find out! I’m sure it will be eventful and unpredictable and most importantly, for you my dear readers, very entertaining!
I am the proud Mom of a 12 year old daughter (The Child), who was our first successful attempt at IVF. And she was free to boot! She is a typical Girl-Child complete with the excessive, unnecessary DRAMA and at the rate she is going, one of us will NOT make it to her becoming a teenager.
My second Child is Cocoa the dog. She’s a mix. She’s so loveable & probably the only one who minds me!
My third Child (& biggest Baby) is my Husband of 18 years. LOL
I was born & raised in a family that, if they had been dysfunctional, I might have had a chance at a normal life.
But alas, that was not the case & therefore I am beyond dysfunctional. People will never understand how I can love them and hate them all in the same breath. I spend many waking hours devising plans on how best to avoid them.
As for myself, what you see is what you get.
I don’t pretend to be someone I am not.
You either like/love me or you don’t.
It is as simple as that.
The things I will write about in this diary will hardly ever make sense to a normal person.
Don’t try to understand … you’ll only end up with a headache.
Instead just enjoy the fact that you are not the one who has to live my life.
LMAO
I am the new woman.
I am strong, enlightened and awakened.
I will not be tied down any more because I am free spirited and I have learned to fight back and survive on my own terms.
I am charming and enticing and I can delight you with my effervescent personality.
I can enchant you with my exuberance and deep sense of soulful connections.
I love freely and unconditionally.
I have a vision which is unique and magnificent.
Nothing in this world can stop me from being an achiever in any field I want to master.
