I suppose it's no different than my friends getting together to give me a bon voyage party. I love all of my friends but they don't love each other. I just felt that because I see something great in each one of them that they would be able to see what I see also. Everyone worked together to accomplish the goal, but I'm not sure they would do it again. It's kind of sad too because I always felt that I have some pretty awesome friends. I hope that with a little bit of counseling my family situation will not turn out like my friends situation did.
Anyway....
Today we went to the commissary (supermarket on base) and spent quite a bit of money. I think that it this continues then eventually I will gain back all of the weight that I've lost this summer. I feel good about the weight loss but yet again none of the clothes that I shipped have arrived here yet. When we were going into the commissary, this chick that was walking in front of us with her daughter had on some tight booty shorts and a low cut tank top. She wore no ring so it appeared she wasn't married but I believe that she was and her husband was deployed. After lecturing the girls about not dressing that way, we see a chick that goes against everything that we are trying to teach.
At the commissary they also have little Japanese ladies that bag your groceries and pack them into your car. It's kind of cool because the majority of the cars here are small and it takes a skilled person to get all of the bags in. What I enjoy is going to the commissary as a family and shopping. I know that this isn't a big deal to some people but it is to me. The more things you do as a family the closer your bond is, or I would like to think. Growing up I hated when we all had to sit down at the table at every meal and eat together because I always felt like I was on the spot. But as a parent, I realize that it was for a good purpose. I know that what I want and what's reality cannot always combine.
Ever since I went to the optometrist, my left eye has been extremely dry and hurting. But I am very happy to say that I have 20/25 (right) and 20/30 (left) vision and I came from not even being on the charts at all. This is all within a 1 1/2 month period. Anyone who has seen my glasses knows this lol. I will be continuing my steroid drops a little bit longer than what my surgeon has recommended. Maybe I will contact him and find out what is best. Well it looks like I'll be staying up late Monday night to call. It kind of sucks that there is such a huge time difference.
Oh, AT&T sucks! I called to have all of the phones cut off because it would cost too much for me to have them on here. They say that I would have to get new phones and my iPhone is the only one that would work with a $200 extra data plan. I think not! Anyway I have 4 phones on my contract and then they were saying that I should get them in someone elses name to take over the contract. Who needs 4 phones? Right! Anyway I told them it wouldn't be an option for me. The first lady I talked to accused me of falsely saying that I'm married now and living overseas.
I was getting angry with this lady and wanted to speak to another rep or a supervisor and she denied my request. Now you know it takes a lot to get me upset and this lady had done it. She even told me that the only way I could change my name on my account is to go into a corporate office to do it. Ummm, that's pretty hard to do because there are no offices here on Okinawa. Anyway, I spent almost an hour on the phone arguing with this rep and then had to call back and spoke with another rep who said I was just trying to get out of my contract. Ummm, duh, yes I am because I refuse to pay $200 more to keep a number and still have to pay for other phones too.
Hopefully after I write this long letter that I will be writing and copying everyone including the BBB and whoever else I can think of I'll get some satisfaction.
We are watching the Lions play right now. We already know the outcome of the game but I guess he still wants to watch. Men!
