Day 5
Posted by Ellen Carroll at 8:29 AM 0 comments
Yup, I totally missed a day, I got carried away talking to my husband over skype. So yesterday and today is pretty much dedicated to packing and cleaning. I am leaving for Florida very early Friday morning. I pretty much finished packing..Just the random hygiene stuff is left out.
So this tropical storm is coming straight up the Carolina's Of course! Im hoping it will pass by the time I leave friday, but I have been watching the weather and it should be in VA by the time I leave.
Walmart tomorrow morning to get a new GPS and gas before the storm hits. I guess because the storm will be here I will do most of the cleaning tomorrow.
My hubby is still at his half way point!! The plane that is suppose to be bringing the part to fix his plane broke down!! Can you believe that?!! So he will be there for about another day or 2.
Thats all the updates I have right now. I will update tomorrow!! I am going to talk to my hubby and pack at the same time!!

Day 3

Rain Rain go away! Had so much to do and the weather was horrible! I felt so bad for the baby getting in and out of the car. I had to get the oil changed and tire pressure checked and fluids topped off for my trip to Florida on Friday. So I checked my GPS and of course it isnt working. Its out dated and I cant find the USB cable to hook it up to the computer, so yeah I wont be able to use it to get home, I cant update it. So I guess its good ol mapquest for me! I am going to end up buying a new one once I get to Florida.
I talked to my hubby today for about 2 hours, he is still at his half way point..and it seems he will be there for up to 72 hours. He seems pretty bored and all he really does is watch movies. Tomorrow I am running around and still getting ready to head to florida, slowly cleaning and packing. I have to pick up my dog's medication and medical records. I have to get some stuff for Gabriel. Well thats all for today. Thanks for reading!! I will post again tomorrow!

Today was a nice relaxing day! Just stayed at my Bestfriend's house chillen with her and her baby. I waited literally all day to hear from my hubby, FINALLY he called me on skype around 4 my time. He was suppose to head over to Afganistan, but he is still at his half way point. The plane brokedown, makes me nervous, LOL they better fix that before he gets in the air! We talked for 2 hours today and it was aaaammmazing!!! I loved it! but I know It wont be like that when he gets there. So I thoroughly enjoyed it! I love the way he makes me laugh! He brings tears to my eyes. I really need that. I miss him so much!!
Tonight is the season Premiere of Amazing Race. I love this show. Sitting here watching it. Gabriel is sleeping in his bouncy seat. Its my first real night back home and I must say, Im holding up rather well.. its nice being home. Its not as bad as I thought it would be. I thought I would be crying, but honestly its nice being here. Well day 2 is done and over..one day closer to my hubby being home!! Thanks for reading! I will post again tomorrow!

Day 1

So Here We are...Day 1 of Deployment. I cant say Im doing ok, I am very heartbroken, but I am doing better then what I thought I would. I never thought Hearing the words "Time for last goodbye's" Would be so painful! I literally was begging God in my head to please stop time! This couldnt be happening..he cant leave me alone! How am I going to survive without my bestfriend. I literally wanted to lay on the floor and start begging for him not leave to me.
He just held me and whispered in my ear, how much he loves me and how much he will miss me, he will come home safe and sound. When I watched my husband walk away..I was so scared to be without him..He looked back and waved. I had mixed emotions, its so painful to see your husband go off to war..but I was so proud of him walking away to board a plane that a lot of other men in this world dont have the guts to do.
Gabriel and I are staying with my bestfriend for the weekend, its helping a lot. I dont feel so alone. I hope I can sleep better tonight and not be so lonely.. but I highly doubt that.
Of Course I miss his call today on Skype. Allycia and I went to go get coffee and he called me twice and left me a couple of messages, letting me know he made it his half way point and he misses me so much! I am waiting for him to call me back.. Im dying to hear his voice. I wanted to start my blog..Its only day 1. 156 more days to go!!! Thanks for reading!!

Countdown to heartache...

Well yesterday David finally got word of his date for deployment. I will admit, I honestly hoped he wouldnt go, they kept changing his date and then weeks went by with no word on anything. Well I guess my luck ran out. I have 1 more week with my husband. Im not doing so well, crying a lot and sleeping very well. In a way I am glad to get this over with and have hime come home..but at the same time I dont want him to leave.
I am so glad Gabriel is so young and he has no idea of whats going on right now and he wont ever know. We got Skype yesterday so that daddy and gabe can talk to eachother and see eachother! I hope that helps. I know that it could be worse, he could be gone for a year, but he is in a special forces unit so he will only be gone for 5 months. Still hurts just as bad.
So Gabriel and I will be heading to florida in less than 2 weeks and We will be there until David gets home. I will be posting weekly blogs and pics of our journey while daddy is gone! I hope youg guys enjoy reading my blogs and keeping up with Gabriel and I! I will be posting the day David leaves..I hope the time goes by fast and I will have my hubby home again!
