M has been gone 3 months today and will be home in a little less than a month. We were notified the date the guys will be home and the countdown has begun. Now hopefully the army doesn't pull a fast one and change their minds as usual
I have been in a bit of a slump this week. My parent left sunday morning, and by Monday I was not only Pmsing but stuck with the worst head cold in the world. Good thing most of my kiddos are out of town this week because it has been hard to drag my butt out of bed and head to work
I am officially over this deployment and being alone. For me it seems the first half of the deployment flew by and now these last few weeks are starting to drag!
I even finished up my end of the deployment to do list. The minor repairs that needed to be done in our house are done, thanks to my dad! I bought my hubbys welcome home gift and scheduled my wax and hair appta! Of course I have to look great when he comes home. And I also finally made an eye dr appt that I have been putting off. Go me!
The hubs and I also finally decided on what to do about our vacation. Instead of heading to Florida or to the Dominican republic as planned, we are going to stay at his parents cabin in northern Wisconsin. We each are taking two weeks off and I am looking forward to boating, grilling out, mini golfing and relaxing!
Now just a few more weeks to get through and this deployment is over!

ReplyDeleteGreat vacation choice :) I'm sure you and your hubby are in need of some relaxation and time to reconnect :) You're almost there, it's almost done! It's hard to imagine, the long stretch of deployment, but the last couple weeks always seem to last the longest. Built up anticipation, I'm sure :)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! You're almost there!
