PCS moving vlogs are officially kicking off, and in this one I’m taking y’all with me through real-life military housing prep—aka the not-so-glam part of moving. Michael and I run to Home Depot to grab paint samples, a “scrapey thing,” drywall patches, and boxes because the goal is simple: fix what we can now so we don’t get charged for damages when we leave. We’re trying to match that military housing wall color (why is it never listed anywhere?), and we end up choosing a basic eggshell paint because honestly… that’s probably what they use anyway. I also share how fast everything is moving—like we only have about five weeks—and how much paperwork and clearance stuff is on Michael’s plate right now. In between patching holes (RIP to Toi, because he definitely left his mark on these walls), we take a breather and go to The Banks in Alaska for wings and dessert, and yes… I’m “a little mad at daddy” because he didn’t wait to eat with me. Then we’re back home clearing closets, sorting through books and Bibles, and I find the sweetest note Michael wrote me from BMT that I’d never even read before—one of those moments that reminds me why I love documenting this life, messy and all.
