Schuyler Fisk is Amazing
I love songs that have real emotion. She has heart and soul behind her lyrics! Good music is when the song tells your story. Love these

What I Spend Money On
Lets see here....
Where does all my money go? Question of the century, right?
Well, since I have my necessities covered in this transition from college life to "military spouse-dom". My money mainly goes to extra things life leaves on my doorstep and lights on fire (you know what i'm talking about). Or the fun things that make my life a little brighter...
.unexpected shit- ticket, oil change, computer cord that pooped out
.usual- drinks and dinners with the girls, cat food wet/dry food, litter, soap, gas (UGHHH), lunches out, movies,
.Extra things I pick up at the store- I do this on my own because it will save me a trip later, or we have forgotten about these things and I know we need them. Such as, Swiffer refills, spot removers, baking soda, detergent, noodles, sauce, chips, queso.. you get the drift.
.fun sporadic events- shopping (not much in this category lately), pedicure (NeVeR get those, but treated myself since my ticket wasn't as much as expected), hair, starbucks before work, gifts, fees for events
This is what I should do in order to increase my shopping funds! Bahah!
3 days til March really kicks off!
My friends are coming to Georgia from Oklahoma in 3 days! They are staying a night at Stephen and I's place, then we are all headed to Panama City Beach for a spring break of a lifetime! We are going to sink our toes into that sand and drown ourselves in beer! It is going to be so wonderful to finally catch up and just laugh off all the bullshit that comes with daily life. This trip with my best friends is really going to take the weight of the world off my shoulders. I can NOT wait!
bahaha!
Maybe by the time it's over with, we will be sunkissed and beautiful like this girl above!
In the meantime, I want to start making shoes. Any advice? I think the best bet would be to sign up for a weekend class and go from there. With the right kind of teacher I shouldn't have to buy all that crazy equipment. There are simpler ways of creating shoes with basic tools. I Googled that much.
If you guys want me to put a special shout out to Stephen in the letters I send, let me know and I will do it!
Love Love you guys dearly!
Thank Our Troops
This video is inspiring!

Friends don't let friends drink starbucks
....or so this sign says that is posted on a local cafe's door. I am torn. I might have found a spot better than the infamous starbucks! I do know my Pooh bear espresso with vanilla and honey in it might be a sub for my love of wine! Hah, prob not! Traveling to new places increases my desire to sit in these small towny cafe's and eat til my ass is the size of jupiter.
Speaking of eating.. Stephen is going to raid the house when he gets home from ranger school. I'm stalking the pantry with spaghetti o's. Top to bottom. Oh the things you do for love!
If you guys are curious he has sent 1 letter. he was sleepy and dozing off in it. He had jumped in a very cold pond and hw felt like his lungs were ripped out. He hasn't called after that, so he has made it through hell week!! Like the gyno says, no news is good news! This fully applies to ranger school. ;). He has so many people that truley believe in him I'm happy to be on board with this courageous man! Thank you guys for the encouraging and motivating heartfelt words!! Stephen and I really appreciate them! I know I wouldn't be chugging along if it wasn't for y'all!
Go rangers go! Let's not forget about Marcus! He is doing well!! 2 weeks til their 8 hr break!!!
Support those local coffee shops, they just could suprise you and spit out a damn good espresso!
Can I get a HOOAH!
After a tug-of-war between yes and no's, I have finally decided to start a blog! This is exciting, I feel like I have conquered some sort of technological advancement!
"Embracing Love with an American Salute" is a reflection on my new life. A life different from the one I previously knew. This life consists of a man I love with all the little molecules in my heart, ACU's, PT uniforms, lots and lots of acronyms, being the strongest i've ever had to be (Army Strong, right ;) ), Army talk, moving, new friends, new hobbies and an adventure all in its self.
This is a salute to Stephen and I's new life in the United States Army!
