...and reality packs a punch!

Preparing for a deployment is like...crap I can't think of anything that sucks as much! Everything that has gone on this week was to be expected! However, it is not any easier to deal with. DH picked up all of his multi cam crap today! A truck full of junk half of which will sit in my garage and gather dust until the next PCS!! Everything was ok, until he put on the uniform to make sure it fit! There I was standing in my closet in an almost uncontrollable fit of tears. The tears will come closer together and at weird times, kind of like when you are 4 months pregnant and you cry during dog food commercials!!
We told the kids on Sunday. They all reacted differently...the oldest fell over in tears, the middle one showed her indifference to the Army, and the youngest just got a sad face and went about his day.
The days won't be so bad as we get closer, it's the nights that get shorter! I guess since that is the time of day we have together as a family. As much as you want to get the show on the road, the more you want time to crawl by....oh what a crazy life we lead!!
So here is hoping to this shindig being canceled all together....since we have nothing on paper saying he is going anywhere.......**cheers to hoping**
