Well, Eddie is now being deployed again. This time however, he’ll be gone for six months. I can’t say exactly where or when he’s going, however I will update you all when he’s left.
I can say that he’ll be gone for Christmas and Dian’s birthday in January. Sigh.
I reckon one of the hardest things leading up is not being able to talk about it openly on your blog (especially cause I have two) and also to all our friends who didn’t know in the early days.
For the third year in a row we are celebrating our anniversary of togetherness in separate countries. That’s alright, it just means it’s my turn next year to be overseas next year
Do you have family nearby that you will spend Chrissy with or will you travel to be with them or just celebrate it by yourselves? Or you’re not sure yet?
I had a letter from his battalion the other day about a info session for families of returning soldiers, not sure if I’ll go but it made me smile because the end is almost in sight. I hope it will pass just as quick (well, relatively speaking) for you
Pasta bake! I’m sitting here sweating! And all the doors and windows are open! Having said that I’m making minestrone tomorrow
oh dude. 6 months? wow. that sucks. but he’s working. but it sucks. my heart feels for you. you’re always welcome to come here! although it’s a bit far….we’ll put you guys up!
Hey Mel, just a quick one to say I hope everything’s going alright for you and yours xx
Thinking of you, hope you are doing alright {{{Mel}}}.
See you next weekend…
