my hubby will be leving for 3 months to georgia on the 15th. and he leaves tomorrow for state activation to houston. he just got back from an activation.
Brittany....get that pen and paper ready...lots of letters. he will be home soon and right back in your arms.
tleak....i havent had to deal with overseas deployment but have lots of state activations. his unit is looking at possible iraq deployment soon. so i hope he gets sent out to his nursing ait before that. your hubby will also be back in your arms soon ok. lots of letters, pics and care packages...so get ready.
And Kate......B will be home soon! yippeeeeee! i am so darn happy for you. -

Keep your head up. We'll be here. training is hard because ANY seperation from the one you love is hard. If you ever need to unload, please feel free to contact me any time. I've done the training (twice because he was Army N.G. and now he's Navy) and now I'm doing the training-before-deployment stint. I am a great listener, completely non-judgemental, and am more than happy to support anyone who supports our troops. I'll light a candle for you and your honey. -

My DH is in recruiting school right now for 2 months. After being without him for 12 months and then 15 months, I thought this would be easy. I don't think any amount of time is easy being away from our loved ones. All I know is that I'm lucky to at least be able to pick up the phone and call him; I couldn't do that when he was in Iraq. But yes, do send care packages and letters. Even with today's technology of email and phone, they still feel special receiving mail! They can pick up a letter and read it any time of day without needing to have the computer on, so it helps to have something like that. Hope everything goes well for you!
