The good and the bad

Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Ok, I'll get the bad news out of the way first.

Glenn is officially deployed. I dropped him off at the squadron this morning. I decided not to stay for the fly off because I would have been the only wife there standing with all the maintainers in the hangar crying my eyes out. I decided that I would probably be more comfortable crying my eyes out at home. Plus, it won't be too long til Glenn comes back home actually. There first port call is base month + 3 and base date - 12 and their headed to QM. I know that sounds like gibberish but for those of you that know what I'm talking about, you'll see that it's good. If you are curious what our base date is, you will just have to call me and ask!

Ok well part of that was good news too, but the exciting news is that my parents have booked tickets to Japan! They are coming in September and I can't wait to show them Japan! This trip will be short, only a week, but hopefully they'll come back again before we leave to see more parts of Japan. I'm already making an itinerary and asking my students about good things to do in the fall. I can't wait!

Aww... you're in my thoughts, Kelly.

That's wonderful about your parents' upcoming visit. I bet they're really excited based on all the cool things you've blogged about thus far.

Hang in there Kelly! Just think about how much fun you will have when your parents visit. And keep exploring the country with your friends and finding new hobbies. Tim left here in April, and deploys in July. It stinks but you gotta love them for all they do :-)
