I love you oh so well, like a kid loves candy and fresh snow!

Patrick has been gone since Monday. Even though its only Thursday and I seen him last night for dinner. I feel like he has been gone forever. I actually cried last night before he left. (not the whole crying like a baby thing just tears when he got out of my car) Pretty early on for me to start crying.. but like I said. It feels like he has been gone a long time.

Training seems to be going really well. He is really getting to know the guys. The one guy I didn't think he'd get along with he actually gets along with the best. So that makes me feel better. I worry about those things. I checked out the new truck he'll be TC of. I'm pretty excited. Its huge and for some reason it just came off as really safe! lol I thought he'd be in a humvee but not this deployment :)

He told me today he has all of his legal stuff done. The one thing I am grumpy about is the fact they have messed up his pay twice! Which means we won't be getting any pay till right before Christmas! just ridiculous but what can I do?!

Were counting down the days to his holiday pass. I'm so excited for Christmas this year.

Dec 29th were having a little get together/dinner. He wanted to see as many people as possible so this was the easiest way. This way we have more family time on his leave :) Now i just need to figure out what to fix!
