Hello all. I don't know who will be reading this, but I will be taking you through the day in the life of a Navy wife. Today is my 43rd day since my husband deployed to Iraq. I have finally settled down after a few weeks of crying when presented with any stress in my life and then last week I was depressed all week. I finally summoned the strength to drag myself out of bed and start riding my bike. Now that I have had some physical activity, I can finally say that I am no longer depressed, I no longer cry at the drop of a hat and I am actually pretty happy. I recently had the chance to "chat" with my husband on IM and that is always an upper for me. We've only spoken on the phone once since he's been gone.
To date, I've been able to successfully manage the jungle that was once a yard, buy a new fridge and help keep all the animals happy. All while somewhat maintaining my career. More later.....
