Tensions Running High

The past two days have sucked. Everytime my hubby has called we've basically been arguing about stuff. Most of it is stupid stuff and we just got it figured out. A lot of it had to do with the fact that both of our emotions are running extremely high. I'm at the point where I am basically staying at home and trying to get everything just right. I know everyone says that you can't plan the perfect homecoming but I'm going to try my damnedest to make it as close as possible. My hubby on the other hand is still nervous about where he's going to fit in and is wondering about everything (including me) and how things have changed. It doesn't help that now I'm getting a bunch of phonecalls, although by the third or fourth time he calls, (and don't get me wrong I love hearing his voice), but I really don't know that much and we run out of stuff to talk about. I mean seriously, there are only so many rooms in the house and only so many positions in the Kama Sutra ;). I just am worried about how I'm going to react to my husand being in the house everyday, every night, and I know my routine is going to change drastically. I mean how do you get used to living with someone who has been gone for so long. Only military wives have to get used to being with there husbands over and over again. I think civilian wives take their husbands for granted and it's hard not to be jealous of friends who are married back home. It also limits the people you can talk to, because no one, not even my mom, understands the different stresses that we face everyday. My parents keep harrassing me to come home for a visit this whole deployment, and I've tried again and again to explain to them that with Brad gone, I don't just have my day to day stuff going on, I have his too. God help me when we have kids, I may just lose what little is left of my mind. I will say this though, military families are some of the strongest around. HOOYAH!
