Done being...Bored

So, did I freak you all out with my last post?
 
I didn't mean to. I was having a moment, a big moment. Our Christmas visit didn't go as I had hoped, but exactly as I had expected, and exhausted, overwhelmed and disappointed don't even begin to describe how I felt. But really, in all seriousness, I am doing alright.
 
What I have figured out, is that I am bored. You would think that I would be busy out of my mind. But nope. Hubby is 4 hours away, working hard to get well. And I am here. Idol, is not something I do well. I have too much time to put things off and dwell in the grossness of all this. I like having a calendar that needs to be color coded to keep track of everything. I thrive, function and feel my best when I am busy. And in all reality, I need a reason to wake up, shower and put on clothes that do not resemble pajamas.
 
Today was productive, putting some things in motion to keep a little more occupied. Making an attempt to be more involved with the Battalion. There are some projects I have been working on around the house. I will share them soon, if I ever finish them!
 
Hubby is doing fine. There isn't much to report. Keeping very busy that's for sure. I am lucky if I hear from him for a few minutes while he has a break for lunch and then not not usually again until after dinner.  We have been getting to FaceTime/Skype with him almost every night. Which the kids LOVE. Peyton especially, she is quite the daddy's girl. It is not an uncommon occurrence for her to make attempts to "call" her dad during the day, or slam the phone into the side of my face and ask "dada?".
 
The kids and I are headed up this weekend to visit with him, so hopefully we will get some updates on how things are going while we visit.  Wish us luck!
