sail away...

I've avoided my blog lately...
My last post was about Alex coming home Sunday.

insert sappy love part here:
[When I saw his face my entire heart stopped. I have never been so excited to see someone in my entire life. Everything about him- every single movement he made in the first 10 seconds of being home made me fall even deeper in love with him. (: I really do love that man!]

About 5 minutes after her walked through the door, he told me that he was headed to sea again... Yeah.... that gave me yet ANOTHER 2 day notice. Only this time... he'll be gone for much longer.

I was so angry. He had just got home... and he had to leave again? I had all of these plans painted inside of my head of all the wonderful things we were going to do now that he was home. And one by one, they slowly faded.

We spent the afternoon visiting the kittens in quarantine. It was the first time our whole family had been together since we were in Florida.
The rest  of that day was spent eating snacks & watching movies. It was a blast (:
Monday came around and we woke up early to run errands. Welllll, it was Presidents Day, so we barely got anything done because everywhere was closed.
I taught Alex how to make brownies & then completely failed at trying to make dinner with the few supplies that we have. But it was another relaxing night spent cuddled on the couch with movies (:

He left SUPER early Tuesday morning... and of course I cried and spent the whole day in bed (I got a migraine from crying) and a piece of me has just felt missing ever since.
The night before he left, we cut our blanket in half. One side for him, and one side for me. No matter where we are on this earth, we will always complete each other <3
When his time in the Navy is up, we are going to sew the blanket back into one piece... and try our hardest to NEVER spend a night away from one another again.

Deployment is one of the hardest things I've ever gone through.
But I've discovered that as hard as it is for ME to watch him leave... It's even harder for him to have the willpower to do it. 

I love Alex with all of my heart. I truly do. And now more than ever, I really believe that everyone has a soulmate.
