An Amzazing Week

Aaron has called and imed me everyday this week. Most days we have spent around 5 hours talking. We miss each other so much that time just flies when we are chatting. We have sent pictures and videos of our days via email to each other. We are reading books and discussing them. Now we are drawing up and callaberating on floor plans for our dream home. So far, my floor plans are winning...lol. I think it just that I have the time and patience to draw them. Though I did take some of the beautiful details that he described to me and put them into my drawings. We are officially saving up for the house. It is a slow ambition, especially with us never knowing when we will get a chance to build our home, but it is a goal non-the-less.
We have also broaded our coversation topics. Everything from what we want to do when he comes home, where we would like to be stationed, where we want to be sealed, to just overall learning more about eachother. I never knew where all in the world he has traveled to...though I do now. I am so jealous. I've only been to 49 out of 50 states of the US (I need to hit Hawaii), Mexico and Canada. And I think that I almost have him conviced to go to Alaska. I miss it alot and am secretly praying to get stationed there...lol.
I have a couple of calendars counting down the days til 15 months are technically over for Aarons' unit. I know better than to think it gives any indication of when he and his men will be coming home, but it helps. As of Sunday, September 02, 2007...we are down to...167 days. Aaron never wants me to tell him how much longer. Apparently it makes it harder on him. But for me, it actually gives me something to contimplate. Like by Halloween, we will be down to almost 100. Then it is only 2 digits from there :D Luckily I have a photography class that Andrea and I are planning on signing up for this week. I also think that we are going to be doing a few scrapbooking activities as well as possibly horseback riding lessons. Here is a way I keep myself from going insane...stay busy..and put things in short terms...like: Halloween is just around the corner...a month later is Thanksgiving...a month later is Christmas...then New Years...then Valentines Day and that is about when Aaron should be coming home. So, five holidays and 5 months. Though they are holidays that will make me sad cause we have not had the chance to spend a single holiday together so far....but should keep me busy enough to pass time.
I know that I am just rambling...but I have been in this house all day and am probably going slightly nuts. Heck, I'm still in my pjs that I was wearing this morning..lol. Man, I need a life. Well, guess I should go grab a drink and try to pass out before midnight so I can be well rested for church in the morning.
