How did this morning go? How are you holding up?

Is it odd that you were the first person I thought of when I woke up at 5am this morning (besides Ella, whose cry woke me up to begin with)?

Thinking of you!

You are so sweet to think of me.

It went really well. He actually left at 6:00. We woke up at 5:30 and I kissed him goodbye in my robe outside (in 13 degree weather, haha) at 6:00.

It was tough, especially when he got emotional last night. We cuddled a lot Smile Definitely some good memories to get me through the next few months.

Thanks again Smile

Awww, glad it went well (whatever "well" means in that situation!).

When's he coming back? Do you have a countdown going?

When Matt leaves for a week, I know how I feel. I multiply that by 30x and well...lots of (((HUGS))). I hope it goes by really fast. Please hop on here when you need to vent or chat.

Aw, this morning is definitely another one of those precious memories that you will hold on to while he is gone.

I hope the next few months go quickly for you!

Not exactly sure. He's thinking late June. No countdown yet! My main coping mechanism when he's gone is to stay ridiculously busy I have a bunch of house projects planned!

((hugs)) Thinking of you both.

Thinking of you, Ashley! (((BIG HUGS)))

Some of my favorite memories of me and Abe are from right before/during his deployments (including his Katrina deployment). I hope you're able to stay busy - sounds like you will with your home projects! It helps. You know where to come when you need a shoulder
