On to AIT- Advanced Individual Training

Friday both Skyeler and I had to say farewell to South Carolina. Skyeler flew out of the same airport I did. But we were 10 hours apart. I was home in Utah and showered before he left South Carolina. It was weird to be home and I think from all my excitement the past week and a half and from seeing Skyeler that I crashed emotionally. I was quite down but I put on a good face and I hope nobody really saw that I was sad. (It was probably obvious) Skyeler arrived at Fort Meade that evening and for the first day I was able to text and call him. (Only for a little bit though). The next day they took his phone and electronics until he phases up. Lucky for him he has a PT test this week and if he passes it and a test he can phase to level 5. Skyeler has also started the application process for me to move out there. I hope I get approved. I don't think I can handle 7 more months without him. (Yes I do realized if he is deployed I will not be able to see him for more than 7 months) But I am not there yet. Skyeler's Sergeant keeps telling Skyeler that it is pointless to apply because I won't like it there, I won't have my family support, and will never see him. I think they are just lazy and don't want to go through the work. They have no idea what I want. But so far things have been better. I have received a few phone calls from him and he has been able to email me. Skyeler is still waiting for his own log in info so he doesn't have to keep asking someone else. I hope he gets that soon. Classes for him Doesn't start until the 2nd of May. So in a week.... I think that is ok because Skyeler needs to be able to adjust and get use to not having someone yell at him all the time. :) All in all things are going okay. I miss Skyeler still but the phone calls help with my stress. Even if they are 5 min. Knowing that I don't have to wait 2 weeks for a reply is wondeful. Again I am grateful for our Army experience so far. It has been tough and challenging for both of us but we know we are doing the right thing.
