Afghanistan

I'm going to start off by saying that today is my "catch up on blogging day" as if everyone can't tell that! :)

Cameron leaves next week to go to Afghanistan and I've deeply upset by this. I've been a big emotional cry baby since he got word passed last night of the day and time that he will be leaving. Yes, I knew it was coming and I should have prepared myself better, but, I've been so busy trying to keep my mind OFF of the deployment that I've honestly pushed it away, until last night. UGH. Before we got married and I still lived at home it made it a lot easier with Cameron gone because I had all of my family and friends here. Granted, I have made some AMAZING friends in Hawaii to help me through everything and visa versa so I'm hoping it won't be tooooo difficult.

So, since Cameron is leaving next week the ENTIRE living room is full of gear, neatly organized I must say, on the floor as well as in the Dining Room. I haven't cleaned since he's been home (deep cleaned anyway) because I'm trying to spend as much time as possible with him and then his Sgt. had to come over today to check his gear with the gear list. EMBARRASING. Dude, I was trying to clean so fast before he brought someone over and it just wasn't happening. Whatever. I guess that's life? Now I understand when Momma didn't want people over because the house was "disgusting", even though I never thought it was. I can see in our house how horribly dirty it is even when everything is picked up and not a wreck.

Am I the only one in the entire world who is OCD about the cleanliness of their house?

Yes, I know, I have drifted from the point, the point was that Cameron is leaving next week and here is the address for people to write him if anyone is interested...I know that he LOVES to get mail! I will put a list up of items for care packages when he makes one for me! :)
