Last few days!

So these are the last few days before my husband will be deploying; he finished all his packing tonight, today he got his task-force coin. Slowly everything is becoming about the deployment. I feel like I am so alone, and that this will be SO hard one minute and then the next minute I'm thinking how I made it through all the work-up training and this will be over before I know it.

There are many things I am not looking forward to: dinners alone, not having my best friend around who I can tell anything too, stress, and spending our first holidays in our place alone.

But also trying to stay positive there are some things I am looking forward to: starting my apprenticeship for cooking, halloween with some good friends, planning our wedding ceremony and reception, wedding dress shopping, making care-packages, and that after the deployment we will have made it through one of the hardest things a married couple can go through. After all they say distance makes the heart grow fonder right?!
