Monday Rants, Confesions, Vents, AWs

[basilosaurus]

I couldn't care less what term people use for their forced separations. It's a word that the average person understands instead of some acronym.

H was once sent to Korea for an exercise, and I didn't hear from him for weeks. So, sure, no one likely pointed a gun at him, but I missed him anyway. I heard more from him when he was in Iraq where he also wasn't in much personal danger. I wouldn't be surprised if he were more likely to die from a car wreck in Korea (driving there is scary!).

I think I've also learned not to judge someone for whining about a short trip. I've dealt with months apart better than a mere week apart at times.

I'll still reserve the right to judge people on facebook whining about their partner being gone for a weekend, and boo hoo, they've never been apart, pity party

Confession:

Everyone around me thinks I've got my shit together - I am a mess. I am exhausted, have no motivation and couldn't care less about the kitchen being a mess.

Not quite sure how to wrap my head around B's upcoming deployment. I'll just say I don't like anything about it.

Argh... F... Grrrr...

({) I'm sorry. Tons of hugs.

Some days I feel that way too. Even if everyone is always so nice and offering of support. It's just my personality that I often times try to tough it on out my own without seeking help. That said, please don't ever feel shy to come here and let us know what's getting you down.

When my kitchen is out of hand, eventually I will reach my breaking point with the mess but cleaning is daunting so all I can do is pick a spot and a direction and accomplish whatever I can before I lose motivation again.

Shit. Did I miss you telling us that?

Yes, definitely, lunch soon.
