And so it begins...

Buck, Bucky and I have a couple of rough months ahead of us...after enduring some previous rough weeks. Typical Army life :( Right after his Christmas break, we had to put him on a plane for 5 days to DC for class. He was back for two weeks and then we put him on a plane to DC again on Feb. 1st for 2 weeks. This was cut short because of the horrible blizzards they were having so instead of returning on the 13th, he came back to us on the evening of the ninth. Thank goodness for a few extra days because on the 16th he was supposed to go to the field for 3 weeks. He ended up getting to come home the first few days but as of today, he will not be home until the 5th at the latest. Not too bad except that Bucky and I will not be here. We are leaving on the 26th to go to PC for my brother's wedding (YAY!) and will not be back until the 11th. On the 12th we take Buck to the airport for a 2 week training somewhere in the US. After he gets back, his unit is flying to Louisiana for a month for pre-deployment training. So to sum it all up, we aren't going to be seeing much of him any time soon. :(

This is an example a friend's husband took of their
current sleeping arrangements.
This is how they have to sleep rather than coming home
before deployment.
