Well, we did it....it was a short quick journey but we made it.....and by short...well we got orders and 3 weeks later moved out to Germany....That includes getting command sponsored, packing, household goods...car and passports.. everything done....pretty damn good if you ask me
If you havent PCS'd before.....*moved to a new duty station* well you dont know what I am talking about....but imagine this....someone you dont know tells you that you have to move your entire life to another country and climate....AND you have 3 weeks to do so if you want leave *vacation* with your husband......Well I opened up a great big can of whoopass and said lets get 'er done.....now there is Army Strong and well there is ARMY WIFE STRONG.....and I got 'er done....because "thats how we roll".....
So we loaded up the plane and we moved to Vilseck....Germany that is....land of Bavaria....haha ....with a short stop at the old homestate.....and visited with the familia.......
So now we are here and getting settled in.....minor set backs here and there....Erika almost got kicked out of her new school because Hawaii kept neglecting to send her records...
So if you have any questions on moving, I would like to think that I pissed a bunch of people off but I did get it done...so ask away....
ICE has become my new best friend....If you dont know ....well it is an Army way of putting in a complaint and getting taken care of ASAP...and it is a way of thanking those few individuals that actually help you get stuff done fast......
FYI....if you plan on coming to Germany and have a TOMTOM...update it before you get here ...dont wait...that is a very big pain in the arse.......
We are out in the sticks...and if you dont know....well you must be stuck in the city......but we love being out here...and its not too far....kinda like Madison far if you want to go somewhere....
And yes we have seen snow....not much here...but it was nice after being in the sun so long.......only I am losing my color and becoming WHITE again.......and my hair is having a hard time remembering that it is BLONDE.....haha but never fear....I have a box
Welp...Box reminded me of squares....and squares took me to crossword....and then I ended up at scrabble which then brought me to words with friends....which reminded me that it was probably my turn....So Grouchy Bear is out.....for a minute......
Who are you calling Grouchy Bear?
My life as a Grouchy Bear....life as I see it. I am many things...all of them I hold dear... Wife, Mom of 5, mother to many, army spouse, friend, sister, daughter, aunt, and Grouchy Bear! You may or may not like my opinions but I dont care...they are mine and I reserve the right to change them at anytime...

Whew...that was hard....
So I sat down here about 2 and half hours ago....thinking ...wow I havent blogged in a really long time and I know people are just dying to hear from me.....I think I will write a little somethin somethin and then more tomorrow.....
I know right...like anything in my life could be that easy.....lets just say that it has been so long I forgot where it was and how the heck to get into it......
But now you can see this and know that I am not lost.....i have logged in and can move sideways (just to tired to move forward) lol.......
But tomorrow...okay well maybe not tomorrow because not sure what we are doing since my little Hot Tamale will be home......but promise I will write soon....soon which makes me think of moon....blue moon....grease.....grease 2....C O O L RIDER......motorcycles.....bicycles....tires....oh yeah I am tired....GOOOD NIGHT

Where do I go from here?
That seems like such an easy question to answer...right, left or straight ahead. Well I like more of a curvy road...a little bit straight mixed with some left and stir in a little right....dont forget to follow with a little bit of WTF did I just do...LOL
Now with that said, I am not a writer nor do I claim to be. I am a Grouchy Bear and have come to love that name. My points are not always well thought out and will never be in typical writing fashion. I dont like topic sentences with at least 5 supporting sentences....I may not use proper grammar or spell correctly....I may start on one subject and end on another....but that is my creative writing...
So where do I go from here?? This question is comonly asked in the military and it is our time....We are soon going to be coming up with PCS orders. (if you dont know ask or look it up) This means a big move but where too?? Who knows...we are hoping for Germany. With that said in two months we have gone from Ft Drum to Vilseck to nothing??? Sometimes the Army is like a woman getting dressed....geesh.
So where do I go from here?? I will be turning the big 4 0 ....wow....I still think, "what do I wanna be when I grow up"...and I often answer myself...OH SHIT, I'M GROWN....LOL
So where do I go from here? I still dont have any concrete answer except out to the garage to see what is in the freezer that I can thaw out in time for dinner.....
