Happy (belated) 2013
Well it is the new year now (okay not SO new but still new I think) which means I survived 4 major holidays without my husband and as painful as they were, they're over and now there is only Valentine's Day between me and our homecoming! It is just about a month away and I am counting the days!! I literally do not know what I would have done if I had not found a job to occupy my time and mind. I've actually been quite busy with work the past few weeks which I am tremendously thankful for as it has gotten me this much closer to our homecoming. I only spent about 2 weeks of this deployment unemployed. Needless to say, I'm very excited to get my other half home and get our relaxation on! It's been quite stressful holding down the fort alone the past 5 months and I know Steve has had a whole bunch of stresses being deployed so we really need a vacation. We still have quite a few decisions to make about what we're going to do when Steve get's out of the Mar...
