Being alone is part of Army life, and alas, I find myself alone again. Alan was sent to the mainland for training for three weeks. While I do not think that being apart from my husband is something that I will ever get used to, it is definitely something that I have learned to deal with. I learn to keep as busy as I can, and to surround myself with good people. I can finally get to that project that I have been putting off, or visit that person I have not seen in a while. Moreover, I think that being apart makes the time we are together more valuable. Although I hate Alan being gone at all, especially during those fifteen month deployments, it is the life we have chosen and I would not change it for anything in the world. You may have your Prince Charming, but mine wears combat boots!

Hey Julie thanks so much for the site... It is exactly what I'm looking for. The search has gone 10 times better today. I feel for you that your hubby is gone. Until about 3 weeks ago I was ALWAYS apart from Zack, so I know how you feel. IT SUKCS!!! I hope all is well for you. It looks like you have a fab husband and some new adorable puppies... I'm jealous the pupps are so cute :o)
I am sorry to hear that you have to be away from your hubby again. I think I take for granted how much I do see Chase (even though he doesn work CONSTANTLY)...I still do get to see him everyday. I hope you know how much I appreciate what your family does for all the rest of us in this nation. Keep your head up, he will be home soon! :)
No ones buying that alone crap. You got puppies. I could be entertained for hours with those things. Besides, your handling this a lot better than the last time he was gone. YOu were very happy when we saw you on sunday. Last time he was only gone for a week and you were not so happy. I'm telling you its the puppies.
