South Korea

With Devin gone and owning my own business I have the ability to leave whenever I want. Space A is my best friend. I love flying for free and I love that the military offers this perk to wives with soldiers overseas. I was planning on going to Arizona to see my friend Tonya and her two new beautiful babies and then hop over to Louisiana but I instead found a flight heading to Korea. I thought about it for 5 minutes then said no, there is no way I can do it, its too last second, what about my cats, what about my business, what about my mail, no cell service, how would I talk to Devin?, too many what abouts... well my dear friend Kristina was sooo excited that it was even an idea, and then I talked to Stephanie who said really when is going to be a good time if you don't just go. So I thought about it and she was right. If I didn't go, I never would. I tied up all the loose ends and the next thing I knew I was on a plane for Korea... Crazy! BUT its been a blast, Im having a blast, there are so many things to see, so many things to do. There is no way I can see it all and I know I need to leave soon so I'm trying to wrap up all the excitement. The Koreans are the nicest people. They are so sweet. I am not a fan of using elevators here since they cram in like sardines and you can barely breathe. I don't like being in too close of proximity as the older men cause most smell like vodka but the old ladies are priceless, especially with Kristinas 2 blonde sons, they LOVE them. Its very entertaining. The language barrier is quite exciting as well. You never know what your eating unless you get lucky to have the food written in english as well but its kinda scary. I experienced pure bliss yesterday when something hit me like a ton of bricks and I spent the night on the toilet. It was a party! Don't know what it was but I definitely feel better today. The shopping here is AMAZING!!! They have the nicest clothes ever. Some of the stores are actually somewhat affordable. I told Devin before he left that I was not going to buy any clothes before he left but I was wrong. Month 1 and I bought a bunch! Some were or him though. Ill post more when my trip is over. I should be coming home this next week!
