It's my first time to do this and I was really excited but when I saw the long line I kinda lost my excitement. There were 9 stations to go to, My son and I waited for like two hours just to finished station 1. Tomorrow, my son is going to get a shot required for his school and then go straight to KISD to finish his enrollment. I hope we would finish everything tomorrow. My husband and I are really so happy, excited and a little bit worried for our son but I am sure that my son would love going to school.

Yesterday when my son and I came home,I've noticed that our AC was not working the minute I turned it on. The wind that it was blowing was hot. My son and I had to sleep sweating although we had two fans facing us. I pity my son because he kept saying "Mommy,it's hot....showe!" I told him he cannot take a shower anymore because it was late. Today we woke up so early and was feeling so sticky. When I woke up, I immediately went to the office and reported the problem with our AC. Thank God the maintenance guy came to fix our AC. He said the run cap outside needed to be changed and he also cleaned the coil. Now, I am enjoying the AC inside the house while it is 103 degrees Fahrenheit outside.

On our way to my Aunt's house today,somebody called my mom and it was my husband. We just talked for a little bit,he said he could not stay long on the phone because he had something to do. I know he is really busy right now and I know that he is feeling bad because we did not get to spend a very special occasion together. I was really happy that he took the time and effort to call us to greet us Merry Christmas despite of his busy schedule. Well, we might not be together physically but I know that in our hearts,mind and spirits,we are one!

The airfare ticket to the Philippines keeps changing, last time I checked it was $1,750/each,my son is 3 years old so we have to pay full for him too! Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh it's gonna cost us almost $4,000 to go home and that's only the airfare. Well, I better go now before my husband kick my butt! Have a good day people!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3844526017296104964-5758358086252926487?l=ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com/feeds/5758358086252926487/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3844526017296104964&amp;postID=5758358086252926487&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3844526017296104964/posts/default/5758358086252926487'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3844526017296104964/posts/default/5758358086252926487'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com/2008/12/airfare-to-philippines.html' title='Airfare To The Philippines'/><author><name>A Soldier's Wife</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03189432160184127648</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16846471101815153387'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3844526017296104964.post-5473059825829781474</id><published>2008-12-08T13:16:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2008-12-08T13:19:19.494-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Blogging World'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='My Husband'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='About Me'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Daily Experience'/><title type='text'>I'm Back!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I know it's been awhile since I have my last post in here.

He got his kidneys infected and his blood sugar's high. I cannot stop worrying about my dad, I love him so dearly and I am not ready and do not want to lose him. How I wish my husband was here with me, I know he will make everything alright. How I wish he was here to console me and tell me that everything will be fine. I am always Praying to God to keep my loved ones safe and healthy always. Please keep my dad's health and fast recovery in your Prayers,thank you so much in advance!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3844526017296104964-3122332162956146912?l=ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com/feeds/3122332162956146912/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3844526017296104964&amp;postID=3122332162956146912&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3844526017296104964/posts/default/3122332162956146912'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3844526017296104964/posts/default/3122332162956146912'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ordealsofasoldierswife.blogspot.com/2008/11/wishing-he-was-here.html' title='Wishing He Was Here!'/><author><name>A Soldier's Wife</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03189432160184127648</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16846471101815153387'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
