The BANK... ugh!
So Jon and I switched banks so we could have a bank that was more nationally available for the army instead of the banks that we had that were California only. So we went with Bank of America. I like that you can do everything (withdrawl, deposit cash and checks, and balance inquiries) from the outside ATM and not have to worry about going inside, but I don't like all of the hidden surprises that comes with it. We've deposited 3 work paychecks and each time we deposit a check only $100 of your check is available to you at that time and the rest if available at midnight. SOO not cool! What happens when you need to pay bills or put gas in your car. The last two times that we've deposited a check it gave us the $100 but said there was a 7 DAY HOLD on the rest of our money because we are less than 30 days into this new account (dumbest thing I have ever heard of). UMM that is our money, not yours. I was sooo frustrated with this cause we had bills due and it's hard to pay bills when you don't have the money that you need and that the money that you have already will pay the bills but won't let you get gas or groceries for a week, no bueno. So I called the bank and told them that this was not ok and that I didn't understand why there was a 7 day hold because I was new to their bank. No one could give me an answer to my question so I demanded that the hold be lifted because I had a right to my money. They lifted the hold and gave me the money, but this same scenario has happened AGAIN! So I guess I will be spending some time tomorrow sternly talking to a bank teller..OH JOY! Ugh.... why is money so important :(

Rough and Tough
So I have been on the verge of tears all week. It is finally hitting me that everything is/will be changing in my life. Reason #1
Jon leaves in 19 days and will be gone for 6 months. I am finally getting used to the routine and schedule of married life and now I will be "single" again :(
Reason #2
Work is pretty crazy right now as well, my supervisor quit to take on a better job and better career opportunity, so everything including our daily schedules and job duties are all up in the air. We have a new supervisor but we are all going to be going through adjustments.
Reason #3
All of my friends are always too busy to hang out. I really really really miss my close friends. No friends to hang out = no adventures which also = hermit crab sarah
Reason #4
My sister has been going through a lot with school, friends and dealing with different relationships with people and is still struggling with being a part of a divorced family.She desperately wants the feeling of "HOME" back and wants me to move back in. She also feels that the only reason I hang out with her is because Jon is gone. I have asked her if she wants to spend majority of the summer with me, her answer was yes until she realized that was the time frame that I am going to be "alone"
Reason #5
I miss seeing both my parents everyday and hate that I have to schedule time to see them because work, school, chores and spending time with their significant other seems to come first.
Reason #6
I have been nauseous like crazy, dealing with migraines and have had a pain in my stomach for like a week all due to new medicine that I am one And no I am not pregnant.
So this is me right now.. let's hope it gets better and not worse!

New Friends
So last night we had dinner with one of Jon's co-workers and his wife. It turns out that Jon's co-worker is also joining the army and wanted to hopefully create a friendship between his wife and myself because she doesn't know anyone in the area. We had an amazing dinner and talked at the table for close to 4 hours. They are both LDS as well and just got married in November. So the four of us are LDS newlyweds with Army going husbands. It was a lot of fun and we're gonna have dinner together again on friday and then go on a group date on saturday. Yay for NEW FRIENDS!!!

31 days
So in about 31 days Jon leaves for basic training for the army. This goal that we had is finally starting to feel like reality. We're both getting nervous about the big change but looking forward to the end result which is a new job which means more money, new place, and new experiences. I just wish that he didn't have to be gone for 6 months. Hopefully, though I will be able to go visit him a couple of times in Texas, which will be a big help. We hope and pray that everything will work out according to God's plan for us, but we know it will.
