Time is getting closer…Part II
Okay, doing much better today. I read my post from yesterday and I had to wonder what 3rd grader wrote it. It was very…well, all over the place. My college English teacher would not have been happy. Anyway, as I was saying, I am doing a little better today.
I mentioned how I tend to let things bother me…I have to be honest, I really don’t have a whole lot of control about that. Try as I might, my emotions are all over the place.
I have been trying to keep in mind of what my wife is going through during this weeks. She has to play all of the parental roles, continue to take her college classes and take full responsibility of the household chores (currently, I do most of them). I believe she can handle it…she is a very strong women, but I worry about her. She tends not to ask for help, even if she really needs it. I pray that God gives her and my kids the strength to get through this. I would ask that all of you please include a small prayer for my family during my deployment.
On a positive note, my Step-mom and my Son will be here next Wednesday for about a week. I am truly blessed as my Step-Mom is bringing my Son (and her) out here so I can see them before I leave. I am so excited for them to get here, but at the same time, that means my time to leave is drawing nearer.
I spoke to my Doctor about my elbow…it still hurts when I work out. He told me it could be a year or so before the bone is totally healed. I hope it heals soon! My plan is to pack on some quality muscle mass while I am away. Diet will be an issue, but on the other hand, I will more than likely have a training partner. I am excited, I have NEVER had a training partner before.
Well, I think I will end this for now! Until later…Jay
