Today is December 8th… this means it is only 10 days until my husband and I board the plane home from Germany to visit our family and friends for Christmas! At the moment I can hardly believe that we will be back in Vermont in a little more than a week; however I am hoping that I have enough time to complete all of my college assignments ahead of time so I can enjoy every minute of our brief time at home! I know I will not be able to complete (and submit) all of my assignments right now, but I am determined to do as much as I can! Thankfully, I am motivated!
My husband Jason has been in Germany since 1 June 2010 and I got here the 31st of July so neither of us can wait to get home! The statement, “there’s no place like home” has never seemed so true to either of us! Germany has become a comfy-cozy place to live, but Vermont will always be home. This trip home is bittersweet because it will be SO good to be there, but the problem is we won’t want to leave!
The bad news is my husband is probably deploying to Afghanistan between January and March of 2011; therefore, this will most likely be his last time home to visit family before his unit is scheduled to leave. I will miss him, and I am incredibly proud of him, but it is his duty to serve our country and "he’s gotta do what he’s gotta do!" Many thanks to any other soldier or veteran who might be reading this post!
That’s it for now (I must get back to work)… Cheers!
