Day 3
Tuesday March 11, 2008
Today was horrible. The time change on Sunday forward one hour and the lack of sleep since Dan has been gone took it’s toll today. I got up at 6:15am and got the girls up. Moving really slow. We managed to make it to school on time, but on the way home I felt so tired I thought I would fall asleep at the wheel. I actually think I dosed off on the way home.
I came home and slept on the couch until NOON!!! OH MY!!! Forced my self to get up and make lunch and eat. After that I started on the New home post cards to send out, and then went to pick up the girls. Tonight was Science Night so we hung out at school and had dinner their. A lot of fun. We came home and the girls played outside until bedtime just about. I sat here on the couch in some trance or something. Today just needs to be over.

Wonderful day today. Got up at 5 am and took a shower and fixed hair and did make up and got ready for today. Got the girls off to school. Bowling went great. Got rid of 4 Longaberger catalogs. Went to lunch and ran into Angie and had lunch together. Got all my errands done. Wonderful day. Girls played outside while I took a 30min nap. Beth called talked with her a bit, made a great dinner and then we all went to bed. Great day.

Day 1
Sunday March 9, 2008
Since this is our first deployment, not knowing what was ahead. I didn’t cry. We said our good-byes. After getting in the van and leaving for home I started to cry. I tried to hide it from the girls but just couldn’t. 15 months is a long time, and today is day 1 of 455 days to go.
Being home was even worse. I couldn’t stop crying. My eyes hurt, my heart hurts, and the thought of doing this by myself just made me want to sleep for 15 months and not wake up. All I want to do is lay on the couch and cry and sleep. However with two little girls to take care of; I can’t. So I started in the bedroom and cleaned, slowly. To me I feel like I’m moving in slow motion; it takes 5minutes just to walk to the other side of the bed. But I keep going 1 step at a time. Even tough I have put my PJ’s on to be more comfortable. My head hurts from crying so much. Very slowly as if time is standing still I finally finish cleaning the bedroom. Every ounce of my body wants to stop and sleep. Forever maybe. I keep going slowing. On to the next room, the next thought.
