Nasty November

November was a long month. Since Aaron has been gone I have been keeping myself very busy. I make sure I get dressed and do my hair. I clean and do projects. I try to get out of the house everyday. But once November hit I slowed down. I needed to. After three months of projects, working out, and doing whatever else I could think of I needed a breather. Anyway once I slowed down some of the feelings of missing Aaron bubbled up, which was hard. I was feeling worn out. Aaron must have been feeling the same way though because that's when he called with his Arkansas trip idea. A much needed vacation. So with that to look forward to my spirits lifted considerably. I decided I needed to read a good book so I borrowed my sister's copy of the Hunger Games and yeah its good. I spent the next week shut up in my house with Daisy reading. Because if your like me when you start a good book not much really exists. But as bad luck would have it during this time Aaron's car was stolen. It is a horrible feeling to walk out to your driveway and your car is not there. The night I think it was stolen I heard a car alarm go off for a few seconds and my first thought was some one is steeling Aaron's car. This was a three in the morning. The sad thing was that the car had only been in the driveway for a week. My brother in law had been driving it and had just returned it. When he dropped it off, I had a feeling it wouldn't be there long. So that is probably why I wasn't so surprised to see it gone. Of course I teared up, but figured that wouldn't make the car come back. So after calling my brother in law, I called the police. Our poor car is probably stripped now or in Mexico : ) So that was the beginning of November. It was long and our car was stolen, not great. November did end on a high note though with our trip and Daisy's birthday. Now it is only a few weeks till Aaron is home for good. We are almost done!

  2. Lee~ you have done so well these past 6 months. I don't know if I would handle it with the strength you have. And some of that strength is hiding the lonely times. You have grown up so much in a short time. You really only have 1.5 weeks left!
