So here are the rest of the pics. I included one of the dog cadet... ;-) This has definitely made my mind up to go get a digital camera. This is fun!
So the family visit continues.. My BIL and niece fly back to California tomorrow morning. They are the only ones staying at my house.. the others are all at my FIL's as he has 3 spare bedrooms. I will be glad to get my house back to normal.. I am a creature of habit and like things just so. BUT I have enjoyed them so much..I love seeing the kids spending time with their cousins making memories. The others leave the 26th.. the day DH leaves.. it is bittersweet having them here at this time..it's nice to be having such a good time but it also means DH and me aren't getting any alone time.. we have got to squeeze that in somewhere before he leaves.. I am really dreading it to be honest. The fact that he can't come home whenever I want or need him to is going to be a reality check for me. I think perhaps I have taken that fact for granted in the past. I have a good size house to take care of, a huge yard, in ground pool, meals to shop for and cook, laundry, bill paying, the dog, the fish (lol) and all the other things that make a house run smoothly, not to mention two 12 hour shifts a week at the clinic.. I know I can do it.. I have done it before and I know the kids will do their share.. DH will be laying the law down before he leaves.. ;-) Guess I am just getting anxious about it all... I know others have way more on their plate and manage just fine... I will too. Having this journal to vent in will be a help. I have always wrote in a journal but getting feed back and support is taking it to a whole new level for me. I kinda like it ;-)
I hope everyone is having a good start to their week.. My Monday at the clinic was a good one.. we were busy and that's just how I like it...makes the day fly.... I need to go catch up on my alerts and such... Have a great Tuesday..

It must be so hard to think you wont see your husband.. for was it six months ?,It will probably be better once he's gone ,if that makes sense,you can at least start the count down til he comes home again ........Jan xx

Oh Lyn, I know you will do just fine with the big guy gone. I remember the deployments before and you are so strong. I totally 'get' the anxiety and all leading up to it. Remember I'm here if you need me for anything at all. Love you. T.
