I thought it would be the same day that pigs started to fly when I got some decent rain here! It has been such a nice few days of steady light rain. I know I know... you are wondering how I could complain about oo nice of weather... All I'm saying is that a few days of rain makes you feel cleansed and relaxed. Although.. this means I will now have to go back to war with the invading slugs and snails.
I just decided to plant my own herbs and tomatoes. Seeing that I kill literally everything I plant somehow, even though I tend to them more than is considered sane, I don't have high hopes for this beginner garden of mine. Wish me luck though. There really isn't much going on this week. Rustin is back to working five day work weeks after two months away, and I'm sure he's less than thrilled. I know I am. He leaves at the end of June which means we only have 7 weeks left together. I thought I was well prepared for this deployment, but it turns out that it's turning out to be the hardest one to prepare for. I was feeling good about it, but the closer it gets, the more I realize I need to strengthen my faith BIG TIME. It's the only thing that will get me through. A year is just so long! You can't see the light at the end of the tunnel on a booger like this one. One day at a time huh?
Until then, we have family coming to visit and a trip to the Big Island for 5 days. I'm trying really hard to focus on the happy stuff, but at the same time, the closer all that good stuff gets.. the closer and more real the deployment gets. Not good. Why does the good stuff have to be so bittersweet?
