P.s. And, as I'm sure you can figure out, each one of these posted events is a long story that I haven't been able to fully get out yet. Like just the strike in Turkey - it was harder to deal with than just that phrase. Nothing on the base was open, not even the grocery store & I was pregnant. We had to go on special buses and take different routes to a turkish store so terrorists or angry union members couldn't attack us (like shooting at us, or putting ground glass in our food, etc.). It was a nightmare watching our trash build up on the streets & the rats start coming in & worrying when it would ever end. I had a good friend (& his family) shot at whilst driving under a bridge. We had a missile scare & I for one thought we were going to die but, it either hit some mountains or was just a scare because it didn't happen thankfully. Then next thing you know the earthquakes hit & I lose my baby. It just sucked! |
