No, I'm not still in Virginia. That happens to be tomorrow's forecast for the little area I currently call home here in La. Oh, and a high temperature of only 39. Hmmm...do you think it's because I washed the truck? I am excited, even though I won't likely be able to even make a snowball.
Yes, dear people, I cleaned, inside and out, my knight's chariot for when I pick him up at the airport next week. Next week--did you hear that!!?? The end is in sight! My heart goes out to all the soldier and Marine wives whose husbands are gone at least a year, and most tours are closer to 15 or 18 months. Six months was plenty of separation for this little military wife, especially after only 8 months of marriage. There isn't a firm date yet for his arrival, even though I say next week, not that I could post it anyway. However, once he is safely winging his way toward the good ol' USA, I'll post it.
My trip to Virginia was grand, though I missed seeing quite a number of people. I didn't time things very well in the end, and things were also reaching the point of being on the road all day, everyday in order to get to everyone. It just means that another trip will be in order once things settle down here. It was wonderful to visit with those I could, and just because I didn't see you doesn't mean you count any less! When you are trying to catch up in two weeks with the places and people where you spent 30+ years, it is hard to fit everything in....
