I woke up this morning and I was overwhelmed with emotion. Today is a very significant day for me because it is my last day serving in the US Army and tomorrow I will officially be a Retiree. I am part of less than 20% of the military that has been given the opportunity to be eligible for retirement. I enlisted in the Army when I was 17, so I have spent more than half of my life as a Soldier. My 21 years, 2 months and 2 days was nothing short of amazing. It wasn’t always easy but the hardships I endured molded me into a stronger, more determined woman and I am thankful for both the trials and tribulations. I am so very grateful for my support system, my #full⭕️ for always riding with me. I am a very fortunate and blessed woman to be loved and appreciated by so many. I don’t know where I’d be without you. As this chapter closes, I have already begun the next one as a Real Estate Agent I graduate the course soon and I’m excited to get back to the daily grind. So if you’re in the New York area and you are looking for a home, you know I’m going to take care of you! •

I get asked all of the time if I miss wearing the uniform and being a Soldier. Hell yes I miss wearing the uniform because it takes too much time trying to figure out what I’m going to wear everyday! And even though I retired my uniform, I will ALWAYS be a Soldier for Life •
I do not miss wearing the gas mask or going to the NBC chamber though! If y’all could’ve seen videos of me trying to remain calm without my mask on in the chamber♀️ #soldierforlife #gasmask #tbt #korea #gaschamber #womeninuniform #retiree #careercounselor #armyfresh #veteran #soldier #army #military #transition #militaryfreshnetwork
This horse. My heart. Yesterday I just laid on his back and snuggled him, and appreciated how much he’s done for me in the past 13 years. So honest, so kind, so unathletic. Yesterday, he stood like a statue while my nieces/nephews climbed on his back (even though he is TERRIFIED of small children). This horse would do anything for anybody, and I’m so thankful of the Easter memories he provided for my family yesterday! I love you. #McPherson #hearthorse #irishsporthorse #auntjorey #eventer #retiree

I'm asked every so often if I'd compete again. My answer is no. It took years of battling with my image but I'm finally healthier and happier than the girl you see in this photo.
It changed me in more ways than one (for worse and then for better) and I've learned to grow from those experiences. Im still proud for stepping on that stage and achieving what once was my dream. I earned that trophy and my place on stage.
Although it was a special chapter in my life, I'm glad that chapter is done with and behind me. There are new challenges and adventures that I cannot wait to take on as the stronger Adriana I share with you today . #NPC #retiree ..
