Ups and Downs of Deployment...

So...this week started off to be a very sad and depressing one for me. Seemed as if everyone were leaving and no one really cared about my stressors. Yea, mine aren't as bad as others, yet still worse than some, and getting adjusted to this whole deployment thing has been ROUGH!! I am one car less, and now have one that barely runs, and only produces hot air...hopefully getting that fixed soon, very soon! I am however fortunate, to have a few good friends and family members, that even if they can't physically be there, they are there for me! I'm also able to talk to Michael way more than expected, and even time my phone goes off with a new email from him, I sort of get butterflies in my stomach! I never knew how hard this would be, yet how amazing it's been for our relationship because i'm definitely growing to appreciate him more and more each day! I picked out colors for my wedding, and most of the wedding party down with the exception of a few groomsmen, but Mike can do that! I realize that going to the gym is a great outlet for getting my stress out, and it will be much easier to go once the kids go back to SCHOOL on TUESDAY!!!! Lol! This weekend i'm having a girls night at my apt. on Saturday and expecting between 15 and 20 people here...OMG...not sure how it will go, but i'm doing it for a good cause! Then next weekend is the Truman's halfway party and Becca's housewarming, and soon i'm trying on dresses for the first time!....things to look forward to and as each day passes i'm one day closer to having the love of my life back!!! Luckily, the week is ending better off than it had began, and for that I am thankful....hopefully things continue to go forward!!! <3
