About Me

My photo
I'm Coralyn, a Californian native. I am mother to a crazy 4 year old girl named Madison, a baby on the way, and a wrinkly Shar-pei. My husband is in the Army and we have moved from California to Hawaii and from Hawaii to beautiful Colorado. I'm a stay at home mom and student/art major. I love painting and drawing and hope to share some of these things with you throughout my blog along with other random moments in my life.

Army Wife-ness


This has been me for the last couple days..


Why you say?
Because It's been 4.. going on five days since I've heard from my husband.
Where is he? I couldn't tell you. All I know is it's some parallel universe called Afghanistan.
I've pretty much been glued to my phone and computer for this entire weekend. I can hardly concentrate on my homework... and hardly able to finish a plate of food. This would be what we called the "crappiest part of being married to a soldier". This is not romantic at all. It's just plain stressful.

I keep wondering if the electricity is out because of bad weather. And/Or he ran out of minutes on his calling card for his wireless phone, and that he's far away from anywhere that sells more calling cards. Or that he's just plain swamped with work to do. I know my husband calls me as often as he can and that's what worries me the most. I even go as far as checking CNN and FOX news for any coverage of anything going on in his area.

Just wait.. wait.. wait..
