Day Thirty-Five.

It's been one of those days that when you get to the end you wonder what happened to the rest of your day!

The strange thing is, is that I haven't really done too much it seems. I woke up in a funk today. I don't know why. I had to have about a 30 second cry when I got off line from talking to my boyfriend today. I just missed him so much. He had one of his room-mates there, and then another one of his buddies stopped by so he was chatting with them a lot when we were on Skype. It didn't really bother me, but the funny thing is, I was really jealous that they got to be there with him and talk in person. Here we are thousands of miles away and dealing with the stupid delay and can't have a regular conversation without talking over each other, and they get to be there in person. I feel silly even talking about it because it seems so trivial. But as I was chatting with one of the wives last night, she feels the same way often, as far as just missing her husband being within proximity of hand holding and talking in person! 

They will be moving into new Chus in the next day or two, so he was telling me that it might be a little sketchy from now on as far as getting to talk on-line, etc. I knew that it was coming, and really we have been so fortunate to be able to talk so often like we do, but it doesn't make it any easier.

He said he didn't have much go on at work today. It was kinda busy but not really, he said. Didn't really get much more elaboration on that! I'm not sure if he worked at the FARP or in the shop.
Tomorrow there are several soldiers that are supposed to help "layout the spam" which I am not exactly sure what that means either. I assume they are taking apart the workshop that they used to work in and getting it ready to ship back to the states. That will be going on during the day shift, but he may have to stay over past his shift to help out. I hope not because I know he will be really tired.

Yesterday he had his PT test and did "ok" on it he said. They had to do the test after working out in the cold all night. (which sounds weird to say since they are in the desert!) But most people take their test first thing in the morning, before they report for work, so they have a bit of an advantage as far as being rested and ready to go. But he passed, and that's all that really matters! 

My day was not very productive. I did work on my painting and read a couple pages of my school book. I ended up laying down for a couple hours to try and reset my brain, but it was an awful nap and I didn't rest well and ended up being more grumpy I think when I got up!!

So I am really hoping for a productive and positive day tomorrow... days like today I just feel like I've wasted.. but I do need to recharge and decompress every now and then..I guess that was today.
