Change

I was on the phone with my husband last night and he said that I've changed. It got me to start thinking that maybe deployment does change the ones left behind. We get so used to doing, doing, doing and we get our routines and we know that at the end of the day we don't have someone at home that can help us. I have had to become more responsible and self reliant. He also said something that made me think. He told me that he didn't know where he was going to fit in when he got home, and it made me realize that I'm so set in my ways that it's going to be hard to split up the chores again. A lot of changes are coming my way soon, although the date keeps getting pushed to the right, which sucks. So I'm not sure yet how this newest development is going to play out.

Adjusting after a deployment is tough, but you'll manage and realize you LOVE the help from him again (just to have him leave once more and you having to be "independent" once again).

I'm sorry your homecoming date keeps getting moved :( Mine has only moved once so far, and I know how lucky I am, though I'm thinking it's to good to be true :)

I hope the day comes soon for you!!
