It's That Time Again!

Wait.

Check the calendar.

Let's see, are we halfway?

Yup!

Which would explain why today is a bad day.

Over the last 10 months, Kevin has put in almost 6 months at sea. Just not at the same time. It's 6 weeks here, 10 days there, 10 weeks, 5 days, 3 weeks...and on and on we go.

No matter how long these "mini deployments", I always feel ready to quit halfway.

So, just like clockwork, halfway through this round, today I came home from work (then grad class till 7) and suddenly felt overwhelmed at having to go back to an empty apartment.

Happens every time.

But...cute package helped! Pictures of that tomorrow, when I have some time.

While your situation and mine aren't exactly the same, I can relate to the long seperations, and the "I wanna quit" feeling about midway thru.

It's been almost 8 weeks since I last saw Jamie (thank you medical school and surgery rotation). Two weeks ago was the halfway point - and I felt the same way.

But hang in there, this too shall pass.
