One Step Forward, Ten Steps Back

So, today is one of those days that I am ready to pack my bags and go home! We realized last night that we were low on baby wipes, so we went to the commissary only to see that they were closed. So we went to the exchange and the mini marts. They didn't have wipes either. I mean, really?! Did I mention the commissary is closed today? Then, Cooper fell off of a chair and his mouth was bleeding everywhere. We took him to the er where they thought he needed stitches. He tore that thing in your mouth above the top of your front teeth. The pediatric dentist said it would heal on its own, so no stitches were necessary. The doctor in the er thought he needed to tell me that I need to make sure I watch him. You know because I don't watch my kids. I let them run crazy and jump off of things and fall off of things all of the time (sense my sarcasm?) Then, today Rob texts me to tell me that the hotel where the military put us on base took 950.00 out of our account. We have not received any of the dislocation allowance or per dime that we are suppose to get, but they are real quick to take their money. Sigh....I want to come home where I can buy what I need at the stores and not have to worry about living in a hotel room with none of our things.

Resist the urge!! Resist it!! I am pretty sure at some moment, every single day, the desire to leave comes to mind. You got this. Really, you do.
