So it has been three weeks tomorrow….and he will be returning to the Middle East, to the hot desert. His home is here with me, but his career obligation is there for another full year. When he got back here August 31st, it was the first time in 365 days that he had gotten home. Tomorrow afternoon he will get on a plane for about a 16 hour flight. Although I will fly over to spend the month of December with him (at least that is the plan), he will not be back here in the United States, in our home, in our bed, for another 365 days. So many people use the expression that someone “completes them”…makes them whole. For us, having known each other since we were children and having been married for 28 years, having always spent almost every available free moment together, leaning on each other, depending on each other, being almost joined at the hips…we truly do indeed complete each other. The best way I can explain it is that I cannot breathe without him, he tells me he does not want to breathe without me. He is my heart, my reason. We have been spending as much time as possible together, doing the things that couples in love do. I just wanted to take a little time to thank everyone that has emailed me, sent tweets on twitter, left messages here, or talked to me and that have sent their love, best wishes, prayers, good thoughts and those that have visited my little blog here and left comments. I may take a day or two off after the “Captain” leaves to mope around and have a little pity party so please be patient with me. In the meantime, I leave you a few pictures taken in these three weeks to show you a small bit of what we have been up to. Hope you enjoy the voyeuristic scene as much as we enjoyed doing it. Big hugs to everyone. ThePinkPoppet.
