DJ...it is soooooooooooo totally perfectly normal to feel that way. Our service men and women do a very important job, whether stateside or abroad. Sometimes though, they forget that family members are not in the military as well, especially when they are away for an extended period of time. i know the military frowns on reminding our family members of this fact, this is why support groups are so wonderful. Feel free to vent to me anytime you want. i can't say i know how it feels to be the significant other of service personnel, but my brother has been in almost 17 years and as he has been single most of that time, his care package and other requests have fallen to my mother, sisters and myself so i can understand the concept of feeling like a file clerk. i also understand the constant worry and fear. i agree with the others, take a spa day. i would even suggest extending it to include a new outfit and a nice (read i said nice and not fast food) dinner out on him. i would also recommend doing this on your birthday and unless it is vital that you get what he wants on Monday, i would push it off till Tuesday and if he asks why, i would just simply state you felt like celebrating your birthday and you would go back to being a file clerk on Tuesday. i know as a mother sometimes i get so wrapped up in caring for my kids, grandson, husband, mother-in-law and Master that so many times i forget to take care of me. When i realize this i usually take my journal and go to starbucks telling everyone that i am taking some me time and they can take care of themselves for a few hours and that i will have my cell phone on, but unless the fire department, police department or an ambulance needs to be called, most of them actually are grown ups and they can handle it, don't call me. You need a "me day". Take it, your birthday is an absolutely wonderful time to do it as well!!! {{{{{hugs to you DJ}}}}} you have the harder job of the 2 of you. He is lucky to have someone so wonderful to do all you do and really not complain. No, i do not consider your post a complaint, it is blowing of steam before you scream. Congratulations to Zephyr, the oh so adorable Fluffy one and sophie!!!! i hope and pray all goes right for you all in your relationships!!! Good luck GT, i'll hope and pray or you too!!! i absolutely love the new pic wanders...it is absolutely beautiful. Here's cookies for anyone else i forgot. (i always seem to have extra cookies laying around anyways) {{{{{hugs to everyone}}}}} {{{{{extra hugs to those who need or even just want them}}}}} welcomes to any and all newbies...i really still fall in that category myself. If i forgot anything else, please forgive me...i blame the fever i have had the past few days...it fried my brain. His baby girl member of the Clan of the Scarlet O'Hair-a's 10 fluffy points
