Feeling a bit deflated this evening. I’ve not long had to say goodbye to my OH who is being deployed for the next 2/3 months. We’ve been fortunate enough to have reached nearly two years without a deployment, and in the grand scheme of things this isn’t a long one and we can still make contact for most of it (albeit limited). I’ve managed really well in the run up to him going away but it hit me as we were saying goodbye and I felt the most horrendous drop in my stomach.
It’s going to be an odd few months but I’m looking at the positives and the time and opportunities we have afterwards. It’s all new to me (not necessarily to him) so will take some getting used to. You guys are gonna see me around here a bit more than usual I expect!
