Yummm.

Lately it feels like if it isn't one thing it is another.  I realize crazy stuff happens everyday in our life, but I guess none of it ever seems that bad when you have someone to help hold you up.  It is easy to take your spouse for granted, but I don't think military spouses are guilty of that.  We realize a time will come when we can't hug our spouses and cook them dinner.  I would love to see Brandon chowing down on my sicilian meatloaf recipe and see that look of content on his face.  I know it may sound weird, but I love making him happy.  There isn't too much I can do when he is so far.  Of course I send the care packages, and I wish I could see see his face when he opens them. 

On a different note, I was thinking the other day about how I wish the days would go by quicker.  Then it hit me that there is probably another Marine wife out there wishing the opposite.  She is trying to squeeze in so many memories before the big deployment day.  It made me feel so selfish for a minute, but I will be in her spot again one day.  Unfortunately this is a continuous cycle and I don't see a end to to this war in the near future. 

I realize this is a short one.  I just wanted to let you know we are alive.  School is keeping my schedule loaded and exercising has become an everyday thing.
