Day Forty-Five & Forty Six.

The last two days have been pretty much the same. The weather has limited me to staying inside. Classes were canceled yesterday due to snow and ice.

So I have been doing some house work, cleaning, moving some things around, reading for school, and just trying to keep busy.

I didn't sleep well last night. I was anxious for some reason and couldn't let myself relax. I packed up all my blankets and computer and came back out to the living room and slept on the couch for the first time in weeks!  I'm not sure why, but I was really uneasy. I didn't sleep well on the couch, but I wasn't anxious at least. I was restless and the cat was being a terror, running around the house and tearing things up. I know she was sleeping when I got back up, so why she had to be awake and run around when I got up, I'm not sure, but it made it really difficult to fall asleep.

It was nice to see the sunshine out today. This winter is really giving me the blahs! I can't wait to be able to open up the windows and enjoy some fresh air!

I have begun thinking of all the things I want to have done before my soldier gets home! There is a lot that I'd like to do, but I usually try to do too much, so I'll probably have to tone it back a little so not to get myself all crazy and overwhelmed. (yeah, right!)

The reason I didn't get to talk to my soldier the other day, is because he thought he had the night off, but he actually didn't. Then he wasn't able to email me and let me know. That's okay, I didn't think I would talk to him until later anyway, but I didn't. I actually didn't worry about it for once. I just figured he was probably out and about. He was off yesterday, however, so we got to chat for a while.

He said it's been pretty slow lately at the hangars. Tonight he has to work at the Walker Center which is the computer and T.V. area. So he'll be having people sign in and sign out, and giving out cameras and headsets.

He hasn't been eating very well. Due to his shift time and sleep schedule, he hasn't been getting to chow and has had to eat junky foods a lot recently. I'm sure between his interrupted sleep cycle and bad meal schedule, he probably doesn't feel 100% at the top of his game.  I told him I'd be sure that he eats well when he gets home!!!

The homecoming is starting to feel more real now... it is getting closer and I'm hoping the time flies by!!
