Freaking sick again!

There is a virus going around base. Everyone is getting sick. First it was Hunter, then Bella, then me and a bunch of kids at the Youth Center. I have been throwing up pretty much non-stop since yesterday morning. It is no fun! However, I am using the time on the couch to research graduate school.

Sunday I moved into the Capuano house. I like it here, however I do miss living at the Pecks. Kathy has been very kind to me while I have been sick. I appreciate these two families so very much. I took Terisa to the airport on Monday night, she is spending a week in Colorado with her family. I miss her, we have gotten really close the past few weeks. She is like a mom but way too young to actually be a mom to me. So really its like having a really awesome way older big sister. I love the Peck family! As soon as Terisa gets back into town I am moving back into their house. I just didn't want to stay there with it only being Bruce and the kids.

Anywho, I have been looking into graduate school and the Navy Reserves. No decisions yet. I am waiting for UNCO to call me back to discuss the Educational Leadership MA with me. I also am going to talk to Bruce about the reserves and see what that could do for me. It would be like a part-time job with great benefits, I would also still be an officer since I have a degree. That's pretty cool. We shall see. I'll know more about whether I want to attend UNCO after they call me back.

I hate being sick... So in two weeks I am going to be hiking the Kalalau Trail, 22 miles of intensity!! We are taking four days to go and hike this amazing trail along the NaPali Coast! So far I think it is Brenda, Justin, Tim, Adam and myself. I am going to be SO tired afterwards but it will be SO much fun!! I can not wait!! Laurie and the Cap are doing it this weekend so I am excited to hear what they think about the trail so I know what to look for while I am out there. Geeze, I wish it would get here already. But then again, if it gets here fast that means I leave soon which is something I do NOT want to do. Leaving is not something that makes me happy... I almost cried just having to leave the Peck house and go next door to the Capuanos. Having Hunter make those sad eyes at me because I was moving next door made me so sad. For a week in December it will just be me and the kids. December 1st-5th Terisa and Bruce will be on Oahu. So it will be me flying solo with 3 kids for 5 days. Crazy!! I am really excited though. However after that I will be very very sad to leave this family the following week... I can't believe it is coming so soon, that I am leaving so soon. I just can't fathom it! It sucks!

Well, I better try to eat something again. Maybe this time it will be a success... I sure hope so!

Aloha
