my love is home

ack!

i know, I KNOW, i'm in trouble because i haven't posted in awhile. but my husband is coming home for r&r and i have been running around absolutely crazy trying to get everything ready. we're going away for a mini honeymoon, just the two of us, then the week after we're taking our girls out of town for a mini family vacay. so i've had to get everything together for him so he wouldn't have to bring it back home from iraq - and then take it back AGAIN...plus get the house ready, blah blah blah. and do it all without having a FUCKING NERVOUS BREAKDOWN!!!

can i have a valium with a vodka chaser, please?

they keep pushing his flight back - he should have been here this weekend, but now he might not be here until maybe NEXT weekend. so he's very stressed out. and its hard to keep a man calm who's on the other side of the world...and armed. :)

valium...vodka...PLEASE...??

did i mention that i'm surprising him at the airport with anyone and everyone i can get there? he thinks its just going to be me there. but nope, he deserves better than that. his mom and sisters and their spouses, his daughter, my daughter, my family, his nieces and nephew, friends from church...our friends. ANYONE who i can POSSIBLY get to be there that has supported us through this mess is going to be there to greet him when he steps off that plane because he deserves it. but its hard as hell to organize that when i have no friggin idea when he's going to be home...stupid ass war.

VALIUM...VODKA...NOW!!!

love you all...

some people will do anything for a little spark

so, the hubster called today to check on me.

i gave him the usual updates - everyone is doing fine, we love you, we miss you, and we can't wait to see you when you come home. so - he proceeds to tell me how HIS fourth went.

i'll tell you now - the fourth of july is his FAVORITE holiday - bar none.

they didn't have any fireworks. so what did they do? they went on top of the grainerie and shot off flares.

*hee hee*
