Could I actually be done with this deployment? After so many long days, and let downs this week, where I went back to deployment mode from excited waiting I can’t believe it. I’m back to excited waiting now, butterflies in my stomach. I feel like after 15 months I’m meeting this wonderful man I’ve been dating and falling in love with online. Seriously, that’s what it feels like. For us it’s almost a new beginning. We managed to actually come out of this stronger as a couple, and that’s a good thing. I’ve seen too many troubled marriages blamed on deployment, and I believe now more than before it has to be shakey to start with if a separation can destroy it. Just my opinion.
I have learned alot in the last 15 and a half months. I’ve realized I have more patience than anyone thought, including me. I’m a hell of alot stronger than I ever gave myself credit for. But I’m ready for the credits to roll and to exit stage left now. Hair and makeup is done, I’m dressed, and ready to walk out that door. Just waiting for the call….And it looks like the kids are going to be in school when he gets in, so I get some time alone with him. Guess it’s time to see if everything still works like it did before the hysterectomy…*grins* sorry TMI:P
