The flu continues to kick everyone’s butts. That is not something new; it just is a statement of fact. Because of this we will be staying home again this coming weekend. We really need to make the rounds; it has been far too long since we have seen Gpa or R&D. But we can NOT bring this stuff to them. It has hit Hubby pretty hard. I was lucky because I got my flu shot months ago (October) so have had time to build up antibodies. I think that is why I was lucky enough to catch a mild form of it. I am hoping that once you get it, it makes you immune to getting it again. Okay even I know that is doubtful.
Navy Girl has set sail. Mrs. Air Force Girl called her dad crying so hard that he couldn’t understand her. She had just left Navy Girl on the ship and did not want her to go. No one wants this, but people are people and there are always some who just won’t behave. As long as we continue on as we do, I doubt much will change so Navy Girl will go to sea, Army Girl and Mrs. Air Force Girl will go do their deployments and life will go on.
It just sucks when that life means you can’t pick up the phone and call and arrange a play date. They will have to wait a few months. And none of us like waiting. We all got very spoiled the last two years. We just had the everyday life worries; now we have those vague worries that you just can’t quite put your finger on. The ones where you don’t know where she is or what she is doing or even how she is doing but you just want the best to happen.
One of the things about this deployment is we really do not know where they are going this time. Last time we knew she was going to the Med. This time . . . well this time I don’t think she even knows. We will leave the vague worries right where they belong, on the back burner, in the freezer where they can’t bother us too much.
Fair seas and fallowing winds Navy Girl! We love you.
