Wednesday! Probably the best day of the week and its hump day so the week is almost over. Thank goodness. This morning I had to pick up my husband's truck from Pep Boys because while i was driving yesterday it got a nut stuck in its rear tire and i am pretty sure it was going to become a flat tire. So I took it to Pep boys last night to get it fixed and they were so busy that they told me to leave it overnight. The good thing is that Pep Boys is across the street from our apt. in a shopping center so it was easy to leave it there and walk home. Anyways, I got to Pep Boys this morning to pick up the truck and the guy hands me the paperwork along with the keys and says "There is no charge, Thank your husband for his service". WOW! I was shocked. I insisted in paying and they said no, and i was on my way out. That was really nice of them, then i got to thinking how did they know my husband was in the service? DUH! The base decal located on the windshield. That made my day. Then around 11am this morning i got the best phone call ever and email. My husband's HOMECOMING DATE AND TIME! eeeekkkkk (jumping up and down) he will finally be here in a matter of ___ days. I can't believe that after 8 months of stress, crying, worrying and all these different emotions he is finally coming home. This deployment has been one of the worst we have ever gone through and one of the worst in Marine Corps history. We've lost 29 KIA and over 100 wounded and I am so glad that the battalion is coming home. My life will be complete once again. And for all of you Milspouses out there who are going through a deployment....time will fly by....once things start to roll again and you get back into the groove of things it will fly. I didn't think it would, the first month felt like a lifetime then shortly after the ball just kept rolling and soon enough you will be where I am...getting ready for that big day HOMECOMING!
Until next time ♥
