2 Years!

So this past Monday was our two year wedding anniversary! I can't believe that we have already been married for two years! I remember our wedding day like it was last week! Although it is very exciting that we have been married for two years and we should have been celebrating Monday we didn't. Monday was Reed's first full day back to work in two weeks and unfortunately for him it was well above zero that morning, which meant that he had a 5 mile run for PT! As many know, Reed is not a runner at all, so he really dreads these days. That was just the start of a bad day for us! We tried to get paperwork done that afternoon because Reed's SGT gave hime permission to get all that done rather than be with the rest of the platoon the afternoon. Well, we kept striking out on anything we tried to get done. We first tried to get our BAH (housing allowance) corrected for Alaska, not Lubbock, but they said we were missing a form. They handed the form to Reed and told him to come back when it was filled out. So next we headed to JAG to get the POA for his parents, so that they could meet the movers to get our stuff shipped up here. We figured that we could fill out the finance form while waiting at JAG. As soon as we walked into JAG we were knocked over by the smell! Their sewer was messed up in the basement and they were trying to get it fixed! Awesome! I started filling out the form for Reed from finance and was almost instantly confused! Who know forms could be so tricky?!? After we finally fumbled our way through that and got the POA, we headed over to the travel office (for the third time) to arrange to have our HHG (household goods) shipped from Lubbock to Alaska. I went in and talked to a lady and all was going great...or so I thought. She told me she would get all our info entered and to come back at 1500 (about 45 min later) and I could sign the paperwork and the stuff would be forwarded to the movers. Well, no more than 5 minutes later she comes to find me in the hallway and tells me that we don't have the right type of orders! I was ready to scream! Are you serious?!? So Reed talks to her, finds out what orders he needs and we head back to finance. This stop was an easy one! Can you believe it?!? After we finish there Reed has to report back to his company so I go to the library to wait for him because he is almost off. He grabs the papers that he needs to get the right orders and goes and talks to his SGT. Well, turns out the travel office lady was wrong! Anyone surprised....I wasn't. His orders were exactly what he needed since I was already here. So the three of us headed back over to the travel office and his SGT went back and forth with the lady proving that he was right! I am so glad that he was there! As I said we didn't have a great day! Oh well, we were just thankful to be together in Alaska at that point. Now for some good news! I went by the travel office the next morning and they got everything arranged! The movers called today and said that they will be there next Tuesday to pick up all our HHG! I'm so excited! I cannot wait to have all of our stuff here! The two things I'm most excited about are our kitchen stuff and our bed! Right now we have a very extremely bare bones kitchen and are sleeping on an airbed! I was so excited when I found that out I nearly did a happy dance! I guess that is all for now.
