Last Full Day in the U.S. of A.
The past two weeks have been both the best and worst parts of the deployment so far. It was really really really awesome to spend a week at home with Sarah. We spent the entire week together, and it really bolstered our confidence in the strength of our relationship and gave us a really positive attitude about the months to come. It was really one of the best weeks we've had together. My family was also very supportive of me, but I can tell that it's hard on my mom to see me go to war.
The major problem with having six days of leave is that it's just long enough to become reaccustomed to normal life. The first day or two it's weird (but awesome :-p) sleeping with someone else again, but by the fourth day it feels weird to think about sleeping alone. I know it's a long time from now, but I can't wait to come home and get my life back to normal. I miss college and my friends, and most of all, my family and fiance.
I am starting to feel a little anxious, but that's just because we leave tomorrow. I just need to get this plane ride out of the way.
