Well I got a few applications done today. Not super impressive but it's a start. I think I got 85% of my to do list accomplished today. So not too bad considering I just wanted to stay in bed today. Hubby and I did talk a bit more today. I was kinda poking around to try and find out what is going on with this whole army thing. He really does not have much information that he did not have last week. I don't know why he made it seem like he is leaving soon, as far as I can tell nothing has changed since the last time we talked.

Oh well. I did push things too far and he said I was nagging. I said I was sorry and then dropped it. A while later I was reading Mars/Venus and was reading about how questioning and offering advice can seem like mistrust. So I was like DUH! And wrote him

"I trust that you will get it all worked out I would just feel better if it didn't affect our relationship because I miss spending time with you. But I don't want to nag so I won't talk about it anymore and will try to be patient while you get stuff sorted out"

He said "thank you"

Which may not seem like a big deal but it is! This is communicating like we never have before. I think that having these type of conversations via text has been amazingly helpful because it forces me to slow down and think about every word I say rather than just shooting my mouth off, which I know! I would have done multiple times during the conversation if we had been talking on the phone or in person. We are finally learning how to tackle these big issues with respect and calmness. It's pretty amazing.

I really am going to stop pushing now. I promise.

I wrote back "Anytime tootsie pop" and have not said anything since! God knows I want to. I wish he was here so I could kiss him and hold him but I am keeping my word to him. Patience!

Well tonight my friend called and we made plans to hang out tomorrow and then she is going to go to church with me so that's cool. I got another day all booked out. I honestly don't have time to see hubby right now even if he wanted to get together. Sad but true. Work and appointments are in the way right now. Which is good and bad. Good because it is forcing me to GAL and bad because I miss hubby. \:\(

I will survive!
