The Army just told my husband that we will be moving to Fort Stewart in July. For once I am actually excited about our next duty station! Fort Stewart is located in Hinesville, which is less than an hour away from Savannah. My husband and I have vacationed there before, and we loved it. It’s a great city with lots of Southern charm. The people seemed nice, and the winters are mild. My plan it to try and live somewhere in between Hinesville and Savannah so that we can spend a lot of time there. It’ll probably also be much easier for me to find a job in Savannah, so I think that living in between the two places is our best bet. I’m so excited to move that I am already looking into homes for sale and ADT security georgia. My husband is so happy that I am finally satisfied with one of our assignments. For the last two years we have lived in upstate New York, and it is so cold up here that I am dying to get back down south!

There has been some news around here lately that I haven’t had a chance to tell you about. It’s been a very busy time over the last few months and my writing has suffered. The big news is that my cousin John is Moving To Virginia. He has decided to transfer his job to this area and will be coming here soon. I am glad that I will be able to see him more often and be able to visit him and his wife easily.

John notified me of the good news last week and is preparing his household items for the big switch. He is busy packing up the items he wants to keep and discarding the ones he doesn’t need. He asked me about Virginia Moving Companies and whether I knew of any he could trust. While I am not an expert on Virginia Movers, I knew I would do what I could to help him out. I went online to find out what I could on the subject.

I found that there are many moving companies out there. Some have better ratings than others and are preferred by their customers. I tried to steer John toward one of the better companies so there would be no problems. I even found some Virginia International Movers that he might use. I’ll be glad to welcome john to Virginia and help him get started in his new home.

Check out this map I found online that shows most of the tornadoes that touched down on Tuesday. Of course, Alabama got the worst damage and worst loss of life from the storms, but there were tornado reports in a lot of other states – all the way up to New York. What a crazy extreme weather day we had on Tuesday – over 300 people were killed and well over a thousand were injured!

Its been several days since Japan was hit by the big earthquake and the ensuing tsunami. The videos we have been watching are remarkable, considering that people were losing their lives and their property all around them while amateur videos were being taken from cell phones and hand held video cameras.

We have been praying for quick rescue of the survivors and comfort for the people who have lost loved ones, their homes, farms and jobs. It truly a terrible thing to happen to such good people and t country’s friend in the far east.

They say that on St. Patrick’s Day, everyone wants to claim to have a little bit of Irish in their bloodline. I know that I have quite a bit of Irish on my mother’s side, mixed with a little bit of Scottish. Of course, we are German on my father’s side.

I don’t claim to have anything to do with where my ancestors come from or what they did in their lifetime before I was born. But on St. Patrick’s Day I will make claim to the Irish in my blood and will be wearing the green to say so.
