Awwwww! Wifey
I'm glad you got your t-shirt (and the pearls, but mainly the t-shirt)! Sending the beanie babies is a wonderful alternative to the letter you can't send, by the way.

It actually was only yesterday. Other things just came along in the day...

and congrats on being the only one to remember that Mick is not an American citizen, so that means he's not being un patriotic, just exercising that big mouth of his.

NIght?
I have barely let go of either hte pillowcase or t-shirt since it got her. Currenly the kitties are sniffing them and growling...ummm could this be a sign that they may have an issue with a man in the house when my husband gets home?

Right on. Funny how those little physical things carry so much importance. Getting closer all the time, you two crazy kids...
BTW, just wondering if you ever saw the pix I left on my iceberg comments page for you. I still haven't found the two I really want, but there are a few others from that trip that I posted for you in the meantime. I need to visit my storage locker soon for my kayak equipment, so I'll be rooting in there for any boxes of pictures, too. Cheers...

let me tell you
from experience. although i've never been deployed, i've been secluded in some god forsaken training area for months and months at a time in many different instances. having someone actually caring that you're gone is a huge, huge motivator, and it makes the time go by much more pleasantly (but perhaps a little slower). i bet just thinking about you is making his time a lot easier (or harder...but a nice harder).
i can tell by the way that you write about him that he is one heck of a lucky guy.
i've got no one waiting for me for the duration of my time in fort mccoy, but maybe someday i'll hold down a relationship for more than a nanosecond. anythings possible.

The pillowcases we have done from the beginning. Neither of us likes to sleep without the other, so this has always helped the both of us. He gets mine, I get his.

Those are beautiful!!! And I'm with you on the t-shirt....soooo important to have something that smells like him....sending the pillowcase will be nice. I've been meaning to tell you...I haven't forgotten the pirate...I copied it onto a disc (I think, I'm a novice at doing that) and it's packed away in some box in my trunk if I ever get that dang thing unloaded....

He is a good one for storingtidbits of information and never forgetting. I had forgotten about even mentioning the black pearls. He remembered the day I stopped outside of a jewelry store and looked at some. I told him then I had always wanted some. He never forgot. So, yes, you are very right, what he sent speaks volumes.

It's my own strange thing. One of the things I really miss is the smell of him. So the t-shirt and the pillowcase give me that so I sleep better. I'd say it's a chick thing...but he is as bad as I am about it.
