Just a little bit longer

I think I need to be a little more patient with people. Ok a lot more patient. Things are just stressing me out lately and I need to stay positive. I can do that, can't I?

We all go through our bad days and I definitely had one yesterday. Its hard to go through every day with a smile on your face, that can get tiring. But we got through it. Quote from Ben, "Ohh we're having one of THESE days, are we?" Yes, Ben we were. Adrian is having a pity party. Can't be perfect though, can I?

I spent some time reading a blog of a Navy wife I found. Her writing is so inspirational, it made me feel better. It made me want to wipe that frown off and suck it up! I'm not the only one going through this, after all. There are many others missing their boyfriends and husbands. But the key is...when it gets tough, you can't give up. Things will never work out if you just walk out whenever they get that way. There will always be hard times and there will be good times too, but you have to stick out through all of them. It will be worth it in the end! It's what relationships are all about....working through everything together.

I would NEVER give up on Ben. When we first starting dating, I told him I was in it. And I'm standing up to that commitment. I know much better than to give up when things get hard. That would mean I wasn't in it to begin with! Just a little bit longer and I will be able to see him again. Keeping busy until then and writing LOTS of emails. So thankful for emails!!

  1. Girl I know how hard this must be and I hope come December you can read my blog danisarmylife.blogspot.com and read of what i'm going through and help me by telling me what you used to cope in the last 5 months. I know it's a hard life but the most comforting thing that I have found is that you have your soul mate! Yes, he is thousands of miles away for a little while but when he arrives back into your arms it will be the best feeling in the world AND your love will be stronger then almost any couple you know! I can't believe I have to be without Andrew for an entire year. Most of the time when I think about it I think.. how am I physically going to be able to do that. Mentally I am there, and nothing could stop me from being his rock but I wonder if my body wont just give up and die for a while. I'm sure I will learn to cope and just enjoy the count down! Anyway.. let's be here for each other!!! He's almost back!
