Well, he's gone!!!

[AmazingGrace]

My hubby is off to overseas in support of Iraqi Freedom. He left this morning. The boys cried. Thankfully, Grace was asleep. I'm taking the kids to see haunted mansion and then we're going for pizza. We're just going to take things one day at a time, and keep to the routine as close as possible. Thankfully, spring has already sprung here, so I see lots of trips to the beach and the park in our near future.
As far as myself, I'llk feel ever so much better after hubby lands and I get that first phone call. Now I'm going to start my day.
Take care

Awwww...thank you for the sacrifice your whole family is making. {{HUGS}} to all of you and may he be safe on his deployment. I hope you have family and friends close by for support. You always have us!

You may have posted this somewhere before, but approximately how long will he be gone?

Off topic, but yesterday when I was coming home from the store, I saw a young service man with a light brown uniform loading a duffle bag type thing is a trunk of a car. He and his family looked very somber and I wondered if he was heading to Iraq.

 

[AmazingGrace]

So far, so good. I just cleaned out the fridge, and folded the laundry. The last load with his stuff in it."SNIFF" I'm going to put the Goose in the tub and finish cleaning!! Thanks for the support. You all are awesome!

Been there and done that too many times, and it never gets any easier. Everyone here will be a great support to you, I'm sure. I hope the time goes by as quickly as it can and he's home safe and sound before you know it. My PM is open any time if you have questions or just a shoulder to cry on. I'd be happy to lend my 18 years of experience to anyone that needs it.
