Har Har Har

Hmm, so after taking some time, having some ups and downs, and talking and planning. I still don't know how I feel about this military thing. Ha ha ha. No seriously, I think we're positive that hubby is going to have to reinlist, and that sucks, big time. And I have to become okay with this. So I am trying to plan around everything. Deployments and all that. I think this deployment I am leaving the state, for a very loooong period of time. Like basically I should pack up my stuff and move back in with family, because I'm planning to leave almost right after he does, and staying until half way through or something. I'm not too sure yet, but that's what it's looking like. My mom already agreed to watch the little man every night so I can try picking up a seasonal position somewhere to pass the time and bring in some extra money. Which is a very good thing.
My birthday is in two weeks. I can't really say I'm excited about it though. Last years really sucked, and while the hubby is actually going to be here for this one, I'm just not excited about it. We don't really know anyone, so it will just be the hubby and little man and me celebrating. Which isn't a bad thing, but it's not like we are going to do anything fancy. I think I might just take the day off too. Like go get a pedicure or something, or get a massage somewhere, get my hair done, I'm not sure, I just want to do something for myself, and not have to worry about anything. No stress or anything.
We are also planning a trip back out to see hubby's family this summer. And upon receiving the boats schedule have to replan things. Oh well, that's submarine life for you. I'm a little upset though because the past two years all we have done is go see family. I really just want to take a vacation just us. To go somewhere we want to visit. See places, do things. And not just sit around and stare at the ceiling and see people that we see all the time. Of course to them, it's never enough anyway.
Geez I realize my blog gets a little depressing. So good news, I am going on a play date with some other wives and their babies soon, and I am actually very excited about that! I know the little man loves meeting new people and it will be nice to take him around other babies and let him play and explore and me to have some time to just sit and talk with other moms. I'm excited to get to know them and to relate to other women on the boat. I haven't done enough of that, but I'm only so outgoing.
I am going to sign up for some mommy and me classes to take with the little guy, so that we have things to do. I want to go on a picnic this weekend. I am not leaving my husband because I realize that he is a wonderful man, and no matter how mad I may be at his job, it really isn't his fault, because he is just as screwed as I am. Lol. We went to dinner tonight and just talked about things and it was so nice and sweet. I miss that. Us going to dinner and talking about things and letting loose and enjoying ourselves. Little man was very well behaved too, and very fun. He is absolutely adorable still and army crawling his way through life. His first word is officially Mama and I am so pleased and proud of him. He is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me, and I adore him more every single day.
Anyway, this is long enough. Here's to a good birthday this year, and to having nice weather this weekend so we can get out of the house.
