Would I be out of line if I said "I miss you"?
Well well well. It's been quite a while, hasn't it?
Not too much has changed. Dusty has been in Iraq now for just over a month and a half. I have gotten a few emails from him, and just the other day, his mom called to let me know that a letter had arrived at her house for me. He apparently didn't know that when you're deployed, you don't have to pay postage. So he saved stamps and sent my letter with hers.
I'm going up to her house on Friday for a small Christmas celebration. What a wonderful Christmas present...a letter from Dusty. :-) The only thing better than that would be to actually have HIM under the tree on Christmas morning. Unfortunately, I know that that can't happen right now. But God willing, he'll be home safely sooner than planned.
I just can't get over how much I miss him. I've written him a letter just about every day. I didn't think it was possible to have that much to say to somebody. I just find that I want him to share in all of the stupid nonsense that I deal with every day. To share all the nothingness with him means everything to me.
I want to cry even know, just thinking about how much I miss him, and how ready I am for him to come home.
Hopefully things will get easier after the holidays.
If anyone is interested (if anyone even still reads this) I've got his contact information if you'd like to send him a small care package, or even just a letterletting him know that he's in your prayers, just let me know. I'll email it to you.
Other than missing him like crazy and spending extra time with his family, I haven't been up to anything new.
OH! Except that sometime during the summer I shall be re-locating to the Nashville area. That should be fun.
Really, though, anything else is just get up, eat, work, wish i had more money, sleep, wash, rinse, repeat.
