Twenty Five- A good week!

Deployment Recap: Port calls make everything better

Emotional: Happy, for the most part. The boat pulled into port and with it came the huge sense of relief and a flood of emotions.

Physical: Good, other than a wicked sunburn from the beach on Sunday. I didn’t wear a hat and I got quite pink on the face. Not a good look for me.

Communication: LOTS of it! Daily text messages, phone calls and FaceTime. Well worth waking up at 2am to chat with Lyle.

Something Fun You did This week: Marley came to visit! We had a great few days full of island adventures including snorkeling, hiking, beach time, seeing the sights, eating the food, and having fun.

What are you looking forward to next week: Another week closer to being DONE!

What made you happy this week: Seeing Lyle’s face a lot, being able to talk to him. Life is just so much better when he is a part of it. Having Marley here was a blast! 

What made you sad/mad this week: Realizing how close we should be to finishing this stupid deployment, but due to schedule changes we aren’t there yet.

What do you miss this week: Sleep. But it’s worth giving up.

Favorite song/show/movie of the moment:  Can’t Hold Us by Macklemore. Loving that song.
