Shopping makes me happy too...

So, I can't spend any money for the next few years or so... =P First, I went to the mall to pick up my new ring...it is soooo beautiful! And while I was there, I accidentally bought a new necklace to keep Dustin's wedding band on (I got it for 75% off). And when I got home, I checked my mail to fine my oh so very sought after tea kettle (yippy!) and a bunch of great tea!! So I have spent the afternoon blinded by my ring while drinking a delicious cup of coconut tea.

Cute Couple

So Hard...

Tonight I said goodbye to Dustin again. On one hand, it was easier because I knew what to expect, but on the other hand, it was also harder--because I knew what to expect. =( I just keep telling myself that we are over halfway through this.

The past 16 days were absolutely amazing!! We settled back into our groove almost immediately and although we did nothing spectacular, spending it together doing nothing was wonderful. The things I liked the best were falling asleep in his arms, feeling safe and protected (I didn't have to take a single sleeping pill while he was home) and just getting to do the "run of the mill" stuff with him--and the new *bling* I got. =P

I am so blessed to be married to such an amazing man. Dustin, I love you with all my heart and am eagerly waiting to be in your arms again!

One Week

I'm so extremely excited!! Dustin should (even with a guarantee, I do remind myself that this is the military) be home a week from today. I am so happy, but pretty stressed out as well. Unfortunately, I continued to tell myself that he would be home til the end of May to the point that I am booked up on sub jobs until (and possibly even on) the day he comes home. I'm frantically trying to clean the house and get other important things finished before he gets home. And if I don't get any of that stuff completed, I'll just have to hope that he is distracted by my beauty and new sundress... =P
