Well today was almost a complete bust! It wasn't too bad I guess. It sleeted all morning, then while I was in class it dumped a couple inches of snow, and continued snowing throughout the evening! So my trip home took about an hour longer than it usually does and the roads were horrible!
My soldier had to pull guard duty tonight after his regular shift (well, his night...my morning!) So we didn't get to talk this morning. I had a short message on facebook from him and that was it. That's okay though, I was glad to at least know why he wasn't on-line and not have to worry.
I found myself thinking this morning.. I have really let my guard down recently as far as thinking he is safe.. I mean, just because he is on the "home-stretch" doesn't mean that he is safe. That probably sounds awful to talk or think about.. but I don't like to let my guard down like that. Maybe I am just having more faith that everything can and will be okay..? Like, we've made it this far..so surely the rest will be smooth sailing. I found myself checking the headlines about Iraq today after he hadn't got on-line at the usual time. I am nervous because tomorrow is some kind of "day of rage" for protesting. Apparently other world protests have inspired the Iraqis. I just wish all of our troops would come home and be safe asap! I can't wait to have him safe and sound back in my arms....
