Bah! I had just gotten back a hour and a half ago from dropping off my husband for his classes, and was very much looking forward to going back to bed. Our car gave us a bit of trouble this past weekend - the key wouldn't turn in the cylinder, I guess the tumblers are giving out (this is apparently a common problem for our model/year/mileage), so we had it towed back to our house. I went out the next day, gave the key a few whacks in the ignition to see if I could loosen it up, and it worked. Ho… Continue

I only have one more sleep until I see my husband - and it's even better because it's the last time I'll have to sleep alone for around 2 years! Micah's flight arrives at 7:11PM. I can't wait. I have a lot of final packing to do (one could ask, "well, why are you writing a blog post?", and I would have to say....dunno."), and I have to keep bringing all of our boxes and stuff from the basement to the living room for easier access on Thursday. Yeah, Thursday we're getting a truck, loading it, and… Continue

So, it was great. It really, really was!
Flew out to Midway Thursday night, drove up to the hotel, got not a lot of sleep, parked in that train station only because I realized on the way to the airport that I had forgotten to grab our parking pass, but it worked out really well anyway parking there.

Well, tomorrow, anyway. :-D
I haven't packed a thing except for some toiletries - I really need to get on that! In fact, perhaps that's what I should be doing right now...
I'm so excited to wrap my arms around him, kiss him, and, well, you know...my mom and Becca already know they have to make their own plans for at least most of the day on Friday! :-D Haha! I haven't seen my husband in 2 months, what do you expect? Hehehe.
I can't get Friday off of my mind. I feel like this week is dragging on… Continue

I imagine that a week from now I will probably start to pack. I am so freaking excited! I hope to find out when Micah's division has battle stations by Thursday (I'm hoping he says in his letter), and from there I guess I'll just have to hold my breath until he calls to tell me that he is officially a US Sailor! I have no doubt in my mind that he can do it. He is such a strong person, in so many ways. I am so, so proud of him, and just cannot wait to throw my arms around him again!
