We have officially been at Ft. Drum for 10 days. The post is beautiful and we've seen plenty of deer and even wild turkeys. Billy spent most of his first week in processing which even involved the kids and I doing stuff. Its been interesting. I think we are pretty much done with all of that thankfully. Currently we are staying at the illustrious Ft. Drum Inn. Let me tell you I haven't stayed in this crappy of a hotel in years! I know it sounds mean, but I really do hate it. The wall paper is old and peeling off the walls. The linoleum in the bathroom is also peelings off the floor. We have a small "butlers pantry" not even a kitchen. We are here in total 35 days. I was told by the housekeeper that I am not allowed to cook using anything they haven't provided. So no crock pot or steamer. You can bet I just wait to start cooking until after she has cleaned the room. How can they honestly charge me 65 bucks a day and then tell me I'm not allowed to cook for my family. Your taking all our money I can't afford to go out to eat for every meal! I guess to be fair they do provide breakfast and dishes to microwave food. I think maybe that is how they make the breakfast as it seriously doesn't resemble food. The kids are pretty much having cereal every morning and I have a bagel and cream cheese. Beyond the horrible living conditions the post is nice and its so nice to have my hubby with us. JJ is in daddy heaven. All you ever hear out of her mouth is daddy play with me daddy play with me!
We found out a few days ago we will be living in a 3 bedroom townhouse on post. It only took two weeks to get offered which is really good. We move in on the 14th of June. I can't tell you how excited I am to have my own house again. We've actually bought furniture for this one and really want to make it a home. So only 22 more days and I can officially settle into our new life. I will post pictures soon!
