Day 39
Really getting the full ‘deployment’ experience. Not really, cause there are still people that have and will have it way worse. The phone cut out when R tried call me yesterday at 2:30am. I didn’t hear back from him after that which is totally not like him and kinda made me nervous. I found out later that everything was okay. Gotta love waking up and not being able to get back to sleep though…it’s GREAT fun.
I’m so excited for and proud of R today…he’s getting his first (and hopefully ONLY) combat patch today. I know how much he’s looked forward to this day and we’s working so hard. I just wish that I could be there to see it. Plus, he should be hitting SPC pretty soon and he’ll make it early so i’m super excited for him. He’s such a good soldier and a great man and I can’t believe how blessed I am that he is with me. I am so thankful. 🙂
Well, only 2 days in the office this week and THANK GOD cause I need a break! I get to go take a one day course up in NJ then goin home to see the family this weekend. Tricia’s baby shower is on Saturday…yay!!! 🙂 I’m so excited for her too and I can’t believe that she’s finally going to have little babies in just a few short months. Ahhh! Can’t wait to be an auntie again! 🙂
