Zach called... luckily Karmen had hers in her pocket and he called her phone... I was SO glad to hear his voice!!!! I cried, people stared, I didn't care...
All is right with my world tonight. Zach said that he will get to come home for Christmas Decemeber 18th and he will be home for 16 days! I am super pumped about that!
He actually starts basic training on Thursday of next week and I will have an address for him then. If you would like to send him something let me know and when I get his address I will send it to you... If you would like to actually send him something we are asking for phone cards because apparently some phone cards deduct several minutes for every one minute you are on the phone. His 150 minute phone card that Shannon got him is down to 70 minutes he said... so if you would like to send him a gift please do a phone card! He and I will really appreciate it.
I think it is national Call and Check on Chickie Day! It is fabulous to know that so many care about us! Thank you to everyone who has called, emailed, and sent text messages to check on me. I REALLY appreciate it!!! It means that world to me that you all are there for support!
Erika called to check on me and invited me to dinner on Sunday with her and Lee and Zach's parents...
Anywho, I have to be at work at 6 in the morning so I am going to head off to bed. Have a fabulous evening!

I'm so glad you heard from Zach. I'm sure it's very hard having him away but he's doing something very noble! That's great he'll be home for Christmas!! You can show off your new ornament - whenever it arrives! : )

It's great that you got to talk to him! We have army folks in our family who are in Iraq now, but they will be home mid-December for good!!
