A work in progress
There are things that I would have hoped to have accomplished by this stage in my life. I have some bigger goals - like figuring myself and life out. On the way to accomplishing those, maybe I should stick to the smaller things.
If you know me, you know that I'm not a poker player. It took me awhile to accept this (not that I ever wanted to play poker), but it is simply something I cannot deny. I felt like yesterday didn't have a chance - I didn't get much sleep and then had a doctor's appointment.... Continue Reading →
Every time I hear or see the words "Not Pregnant" (which in German is nicht schwanger, in case you were curious) I break down. This time I was so sure. I am beginning to hate the phrase "When you know, you know." What about all those times before you knew, when you thought you knew? Is this just me too?
I'm starting to wonder if you hear words too much they start to lose their meaning..."Mrs. Pearce, you are not pregnant." I almost thought that I was starting to become immune to my own hopes. But then I actually said it out loud to Chris and quickly realized that was simply wishful thinking. I had... Continue Reading →

I haven't decided on any nuances yet - I figure that will work itself out in the end. And thus, I find myself sitting on a path in a field just outside of my temporary home town of Hemau, Germany.
I've tried to not be labeled as a military spouse. Not because there is anything wrong with it. I am friends with some awesome military spouses. But I'm afraid that if I'm labeled as a military spouse, that is the only thing people will see. Also, I don't like lumping a bunch of people into... Continue Reading →
Yesterday, my husband came back from being in Georgia (the country, not the state) for almost a week. While he was away, we talked a little bit – and he told me that this year was going to be busy. I knew that busy meant lonely nights, weekends away from each other, and dinners for... Continue Reading →
In early September 2016, my husband got the news that he was being transferred(reassigned) to an Army base in Germany. He was very excited while I took a detour of panic on my way to getting excited. Ready or not, the Army told us we had to be in Germany by December 10th.
