So wow! I haven't blogged in forever! I'm completely horrible at keeping people updated. Sorry guys! I guess I decided to get on here and blog because I'm just having a rough day. I MISS my husband! I was okay knowing he'd be gone for three months. I prepped myself and the kids and I was even able to go and visit him for our anniversary. Well now with the government shutdown we have no idea when he will be home. The guy that is supposed to take his place can't get orders to Okinawa because our government can't get their stuff together. :( I delayed the boys birthday party so that they would have dad home to celebrate with us and now that's not going to be the case. Hayden doesn't even know yet and I don't want to tell him because he was already upset that dad missed his real birthday. I know it is what it is and this is all part of this "great" military life we lead but it doesn't make it any easier. Justin misses out on so much and I know how hard it is for him too. Andrew lost his first tooth, Matt played football for the first time and Hayden has grown up so much and he has missed out on all of that. Every once in a while you have to have a pity party for yourself and that is where I am today. I'm trying to not worry about it and know that it will work itself out but I just can't get out of my funk. I don't want to do anything. I just want my husband home. The fact that we don't have a return date now makes it so much harder for me. I don't have anything to look forward to! :/ I feel like I can't even be excited about my sister and family coming to visit because now I don't even know if my husband will be here to enjoy their visit with us. No matter what the visit will be fun and we will do a lot of cool things while they are here but it won't be the same not being able to share that time with my husband as well.
So with all that said I really feel like our government needs to get their act in shape. They are affecting so many lives by not doing their job. I feel like everyone else is suffering based on what they decide and all they do is continue to bicker like little children?! Well that's all I got for today. My little pity party is over. I will be fine and I'll get my mojo back I just miss the guy I love the most and want to really have him here enjoying Japan with us. Night!!
