Thought I'd check in...

Jan 13, 2009

This week has been kind of sad as Mark is leaving for Afghanistan in just over 48 hours. We've been trying to spend as much time as possible together before he leaves after we get out of work. He went to the gym with me on Sunday and Monday which was nice. He was definitely not into the gym which I thought was funny for a soldier! He only liked playing basketball when we were done. Today when I get out of work at 2pm I will go alone and meet him after I'm done working out. We are going to have a quiet night home watching the shows we've recorded all week and having dinner.

Tomorrow we are going bowling and to a nice dinner which we are looking forward too. Friday I'm going to get out of work a few hours early so we can go to a movie ("Paul Blart: Mall Cop") which looks good. We are movie people as we wind up going at least once every weekend. We both miss that while Mark is gone.

I was thinking that if the weather cooperates on Saturday morning that I should drive the 75 minutes to my Support Group meeting. I haven't been to one since the winter started and I told the group I would be back in the spring. We have negative 15 to 20 degree temps for the next 3 days and hopefully not too much additional snow to deal with.

That's about it for now. I'm sure I'll post a sad, sad post after Mark actually leaves and I come back to a lonely house with just me and my Sargey-boy.
