Wow! Ellie...out of nowhere! Great advice. Happy New Year, Matilda. To me it's just Tuesday. Nothing different from any other day. Welcome to the suck! We're at the point where the deployment is statring to take a human emotional toll on a lot of folks, but it's been a great escape for me. No one sleeps a full night. The constant stress of 18 hour days, 7 days a week makes you tired, but you're stressed out and don't even realize it. I will, however have to face the music in about 7 months. I'm already 11 months into the mobilization, and 5 into the deployment. Made plan reservations for D17 today. I get leave in April, and all 3 kids are meeting me in FLA. I have reservations at the Shades of Green, which is a 4 star hotel for military personnel. We'll have a lot of fun, angry, insecure, crazy W. aside. That felt good!
