I was out with a friend today and she mentioned that we are passing the 3 month mark of deployment soon. At the time it didn't set it, but now I keep saying to myself "THREE MONTHS ALREADY?!?!" Wow. Amazing. My plan has really worked since I haven't really noticed that we are quickly passing the 3 month mark. My plan from the beginning was to have something big to do each month up until August/September and from there Andersen would take over. What a great plan it was I must say! But now that I am thinking about the lack of plans for the future months I am growing even more lonely. I still have the nursery to complete and a job to work and baby things to buy, but to me that doesn't seem like it will pass the time like big plans - trips - places to go! I can feel myself sliding into a slump...who knew one innocent conversation could get my brain aswirling with loneliness so quickly?! Anyone out there have any 3 month slump ideas? Flying is out of the question and well, I have to put off shopping for a bit until the baby items are all purchased. So any OTHER ideas?
On a side note: My next appointment is on Friday... and I go to the dentist on Tuesday, that makes me happy!

what about doing sight-seeing in your area? that's what i'm gonna try and do soon to pass the time? but, i HEAR you...staying busy makes it go faster. i think about you a ton, but this morning especially i thought: it's august tomorrow...that means in another month Andersen will be here! woot woot! can't wait to hear the latest details on friday!
Pick a TV Series you've always wanted to see--or that you've already seen before and loved. Watch every episode in order. One or two a day. It's a lame idea, but I really enjoyed being able to do it when Matt was gone at OCS. When he deploys soon, I'll be watching the entire series of Gilmore Girls. :)
I'm sure I'll have days where that is the highlight of my day. LOL
