Ah, yes. The word no army wife ever wants to hear.
Dustin started to say something last week, but when I plugged my ears "LALALALALA". He quickly changed the subject.
Yesterday there really was no avoiding it. We don't have any orders yet, there for nothing is official. However "reliable sources" are saying April of next year.
I spent the majority of the day trying to convince myself that it was no big deal. Yet the news really hit me like a ton of bricks. Needless to say I didn't sleep much last night. I avoided tears altogether thankfully.
I decided to be as possitive as one could possibly be. For me knowlege helps. I spent the night researching deployments in every way. What to pack, what to get done before, what type of contact to expect.....
The problem is most of what I found is specific to Iraq. He'll most likely be going to Afghanistan. things aren't nearly as "developed" there.
This is probably as good a time as any to also mention OPSEC. Due to security I will be vary vague about details on my blog. If anyone wants more information feel free to call or email.
7 months and counting....
