It's a Small World!
A couple of weeks ago, I got an email saying Mike's squadron has a private webpage detailing what is going on and if I wanted to be part of it to notify the coordinators. Of course, I wanted to know what is going on, so I got access and noticed a post of a future spouse introducing herself. Not having much to do with the social events of the squadron, yet still wanting to be friendly, I shot the girl an email introducing our family (Libby included) and welcoming her into the military life.
Not long after, I got an email from her saying she, too, had a Jack Russell and her Jack is Lizzie! How bad could she really be?!? Emails trailed along that day and one thing lead to another when Carrie said that she was from GA and her fiance from TX. Well, HALLELUJAH! Another GA girl in Jersey and our husbands work together. An added bonus: She is a DAWG fan, and spells it the right way, too - a true sign of her quality upbringing.
I got so excited that I looked her up elsewhere and found that she knew THREE of MY friends from DACULA!!! Turns out, Carrie went to college with my long-time friends from Dacula...but the story gets even jucier...
Carrie is from Pelham. Even better, she is related to one of my uncles!
We have so much in common that it is really just scary at this point. We are both so excited to have each other here in the JerZ!
