SO SAD! - During Deployment

*Christy6* · 10-21-2007, 12:20 PM

So I get a phone call this morning with the US NAVY on the screen. For a second my heart skipped a beat and then I got back to reality. Dhs command is putting together a box together for him for Christmas.( He is IA in Iraq) It wasnt so sad thinking of things to send him, It was sad thinking of all his favorite things.....those things aren't here anymore. We just dont eat them.

He loves chocolate pop tarts. They just dont seem so important when he isnt here.

Soo I know ENOUGH whinning!!

Oh also... if I was called maam one more time....

OMG my heart would've skip a beat too!!!!

I know what you mean. I don't buy J's favorites foods cause they will go bad if I do. I can't wait till I can start shopping for his food!!!

How nice they are getting a package together for him

aww...at least it was something good!

oh, and i hate being called ma'am with a passion!!!

Aww...I don't buy any of brian's foods either but I always notice them in the grocery store.

I hate when people call me ma'am too.

I think it's awsome his command is STILL thinking of him....hubby's command abandoned us with his orders 5 months ago...

Sorry it wasn't a phone call from you hubby though...

Ahhh, I'm sorry...that would be hard. I know what you mean, my hubby is a Dorito-aholic and I never buy them when he's gone but I always walk past them in the store and think of him.

I would have had a heartatack!! I am glad that it was something good though!. I agree with the ma'm thing... it drives me bonkers when a guy who is older than me starts calling me ma'm!

Tara S. · 10-21-2007, 03:56 PM

i would have been so afraid to answer that call...glad it was something good

Huge hugs to you.

I hate being called ma'am too (it makes me look around for my mom or something, I'm only 19 not used to it

)
