Day 2, At Least We're Gettin' Somewhere

No worries, the likelihood that I'll blog about every single day of this deployment is pretty slim. I'm a busy woman. This IS the weekend however so I have the time to sit & think. Today's been a good day, it's got a feel to it though. It's not a bright sunshiney day feeling, more like a Wow he's really gone kinda day. I did get a call from him though :o) They're in Kuwait, he's doing well, they're preparing for some exercises & classes so they'll be busy during the next lil while. He may not call again for a week or so. No biggie, I expected as much. Hell by now I know the drill, trust me...

I've done the usual: laundry, cleaning, eating, even watched some television. There's no one to talk to though. No one to harass. No one to come by & run their fingers through my hair or kiss my forehead. There's a piece of our puzzle missing & we all know it, we all feel it. But honestly we're doing ok with it. It's going so much more smoothly than I expected. I haven't cried since The Night. I've taken a couple sniffs of his shirts, just to breathe him in.

I've got plans for the next week to keep me busy. A To-Be-Read pile of books to sift through & figure out where I want to start. There's always grocery shopping & birthday shopping :o) There's a couple movies I need to watch so I can send them back in. Oh & hair color, I need to fix mine lol! The summer sun lightens my color so much that it looks weird when it starts to grow out :oP So that's on the agenda for the week.

I'll end the post with a picture I ran across earlier after I uploaded our Halloween photos. This photo shows a normal day at our house, when Dave's home. This is what I miss.
