Hey, I just want to thank everyone for the notes and well wishes
during Monday night's show and since.
David is en route to Afghanistan via a pre-mob site, which he
could be at for the next 3-6 weeks. They keep telling me that "new" policy
is that he'll only be away for no more than 365 days to include this
stint at the pre-mob site. That's yet to be seen for other deployments, so
let's not hold our breath.
Wife and kids are fine (LOL), and again...I thank you for your prayers and support.
I want to take a moment, for a tactical pause if you will allow me, to recognize
that I'm not the only one going through this, not the only one at the beginning of this year-long sub-journey, and there are those out there in the middle and some trying to adjust to the reunion...I pass on the thoughts and prayers I received to you, seven-fold.
For all of you, I have this to share:
The beatles, "With a little help from my friends"
What do I do when my love is away.
(Does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you're on your own)
No, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mmm I get [by] with a little help from my friends,
Mmm I'm gonna to try with a little help from my friends
I kid you not; this song was playing as I drove David to the bus.
We enjoyed an out-of-tune, resounding sing-a-long.
I'm so glad I'm here with AWN and LAS to pass this time,
with a little help from my friends.

so sorry you are going through it, I have been through it twice now and it never gets easier. Just hang in there and keep busy and before you know it he'll be home again.
Thanks for sharing Star...you and your family will be in my prayers! Friendship truly does make the difference in life! :-)

The good thing is that the deployments for the Reserves did change - they are only one year total with the premob stuff - no joke! The year goes by so fast. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.
My fiance and I sent journals back and forth to each other with little notes inside that helped us keep in touch. It was something to look forward to in the mail every couple of weeks.
There is light at the end of the tunnel.
I'll keep your family in my prayers :)
My fiance and I are at the end of his deployment, just waiting right now. Lol. Time goes by quickly and God is very helpful in reminding us that friendships like ours are unique :)
