Fighting on Deployment
Sunday, August 31, 2014
Waiting for the call that doesn't come
Waiting all day for a Skype invite the never comes. It happens, and you can't really be mad at anyone. Today it happened to me. I know I was too excited, and put too much importance on it. So maybe I should blame myself for jinxing my own outcome but what am I supposed to do when I find out I might see my husband's face, hear his voice, his laugh after it had been over a month since I'd seen him. Am I supposed to just remain apathetic. He did Facebook me this morning telling my he was having a difficult time finding wifi so I can't blame him, he did try but it just kind of sucks. Now I'm sure he's in bed and feeling just as awful as I am and there was nothing we could have done.
This is one of those deployment things people just don't really tell you about. The fact that it is inevitable to get your hopes up and to be let down. They can't always Skype, the internet on the ship goes down and they can't always email and you are just stuck there, wondering when it will work again. When you will see them again, I did get a few pictures though. I really do have a pretty awesome husband. He was sure to take pictures the last couple of days and send them to me on Facebook so that even if I can't see his face I can have some pictures of him to keep and eventually to scrapbook. I'll talk about that more, but that's a BIG way I get through deployment. Without my scrapbooks I honestly think I'd lose my mind. I have high hopes that I'll get to see my husband's face tomorrow but who knows, I can't predict the future and I can only hope that he will find Wifi before his ship leaves again they're back to see. Oh well, that's just one more sucky part of being a Navy Wife, it's not all bad but days like this certainly aren't my favorite. Waiting by a phone or tablet, tied to Wifi. You can't leave or go anywhere because if they call while you were gone that's the worst feeling imaginable so instead you wait for that message that never comes. I can't wait until my husband is home and things go back to our version of normal.
