So my H came home...

[MrsAggie]

from being at JRTC for a month. He came home earlier in the week at midnight and I had work the next morning. I rolled out of bed, put on some pants and a bra, and went to pick him up. I had no makeup on and my hair was still wet. Needless to say, I was looking smoking hot.

So I'm waiting in my car for him to get off the bus and I notice some wives standing over on the sidewalk. They had on dresses with hair and makeup done. H got in the car and I was like, "Sorry babe, I have to wake up in 5 hours and you were only gone a month. This is the best you're going to get." Apparently I missed the memo.

I'm pretty sure I would have dressed just like you. Its OK.

This.

Yeah for only being gone a month, that's pretty much all DH got from me. Leaving for underways do not equal heels IMO.

When DH is gone for that amount of time I sometimes just wait at home for him to call and say he wants a ride home. So don't worry you're not alone.

I like to get dressed up sometimes to pick him up but if it was at midnight I most likely wouldn't do it either.

Meh. I just can't be fussed to stress out about dolling up for much of anything. I'm not even sure I dropped DH off/picked him up from the JRTC trip. He probably drove his truck down to the unit, and left it there while he was away.

DH doesn't care. He just wants to see me, however I happen to look at that time.

I wish DH could have driven himself home. We didn't want his car broken into and he accidentally took his keys with him so I couldn't drop his car off on post the day before.

The wives of the guys in H's battery dress like they're going clubbing when they pick up their husbands after 3 days in the field. I wear PJs so I can go to bed as soon as we get home.
