154 days til Aaron should be coming home. 5 months and 2 days. It seems like forever, but I keep telling myself that it's not. We have made it through 10 months, what is another 5...right?
Aaron tried to call and instant message me regularly. I am so blessed to have that, there are some who rarely get to hear from their soldiers. I know that I won't always have this luxury, but while I do I am going to savor every second.
I love being able to hear his voice. We talk about everything. Sometime we have those awkward silences where we don't know what to say, but they don't last long. We talk about how we are coming along in our work-outs. Now we have discussed and decided to try to have a baby when he comes home (which we were debating for a while...seeing as we couldn't decide on whether we wanted to wait til we had time alone...or just go for it). I love the way we make plans, not knowing of course whether or not he will even be home to go through with them. Talking about going to the beach for my annual beach family reunion. Drawing up and discussing floor plans for our dream home. I love how we are so open and can talk about anything and everything.
Yesterday I gave him the 5 Languages of Love Quiz. Just to have something fun to talk about. Turns out we both have the same primary and secondary love languages. Which I decided just further proved that we are soul mates.
Something else that I have to pass my time by...photo class. Andrea and I enrolled into a photography fundamentals class. Now we will be able to take great pro-like pics for our scrapbooking. Too bad it is only one night a week.
So, to keep me from going further insane during Aaron's' absence, I have; photo class, scrapbooking, soon subbing again, working-out and anything else that Andrea throws my way...lol. She is already talking about another photo class and we want to take the painting dishes for Christmas class and there are the classes thrown by the scrapbooking stores around here. So with all of this...plus my insane house cleaning kick I have been one...I should be good.
And, on Monday or Tuesday, I should be getting another call from the FRSA to talk about me doing some volunteer work on base and/or in my FRG.
lol...Aaron said yesterday that I have grown a lot since he has left. That may or may not be true, but I sure feel more mature. Just because I have never really had to take care of myself before, and now I have to. I like paying the bills, I like knowing that the house looks good, and I like knowing that my husband is proud of the job that I do.
Well, I guess that is enough blabbing for today.

Being able to talk to each other like that makes for a very good relationship. I'm so happy to see the way you two get along with each other. Glad you are keeping yourself busy while Aaron is gone. It definitely helps the time go by faster. I envy you and Andrea being able to start your photography class already. I don't get to start mine until next week. Mine will be online, so there won't be any dark room. Oh well. Maybe when I can actually get into taking some classes towards my degree, again, I can also take the on campus photography class that is an elective.
I wish I had time for classes and extra things. I guess you wish you didn't have all this time to fill. I have my regular classes to keep up with, plus a organization that I am getting started on campus for women with children who can't afford daycare, but still need a study group! I work out Tues, Thurs, Sat, and Sun because that is the only time I have available to breathe!Plus, I try to go jogging every morning. My goal is 20 lbs gone by Christmas, guess we will see how that goes! Isn't it wonderful when you realize that the person you love is the one you were meant to love?! I discover more and more everyday why I love Jared. And we have been together for 3 years now. It just gets better! He is the one person I can tell anything and everything, and I wake up knowing that my life is perfect b/c of him, no matter what craziness the day entails! With 3 kids, it's hard to find time for romance, but he does, for me, and it is wonderful. I am so glad that you have that with Aaron. You two needed each other and now your lives can only get better...and by the way...Whoopee! about having a baby! I am so for another niece or nephew...maybe you can have the first "Golson boy"!!! Just kidding! Good luck with your classes and workout! Hopefully time will inly pass quicker for you!
