I was supposed to fly to Indiana one week from today to meet Joel at the airport. We planned on spending one week together while he made preparations for his soldiers to return.
Plans have changed. His replacement didn’t work out so he has to stay a little longer.
I should still see him soon, just not as soon as I had hoped… and the fun-filled kid-free week has been canceled.
I’m disappointed, of course… and hoping we get our money back on my plane tickets.
Ah well, such is the Army. I’ll hold him when I hold him.
Oh, Amy, I’m so sorry.

I’m sorry to hear this as well. Praying for Joel’s safe return and a quick resolution to the problem that’s holding everything up.

Ouch! Hate it when that happens, but yes, that is the way of the Army, “I don’t plan it til I see it.”

I’m really sorry to hear that, Amy… we all know that the Army will do what the Army will do, but that doesn’t make it fun…
On another note- after the last comment you left on my blog, Jon said, “I REALLY think we would get along great with them!”

That’s too bad. I hope the additional time is as short as possible.

Amy I have a wonderful tribute to Chaplains and their assistants if you’d care to stop by. Here’s the link: scrappermarylu.blogspot.com/2008/01/special-relati...
I’d love to be added to your CH-BOLC bloggers list, my DH is there right now.
Thanks so much

I’m sure you are so disappointed. He WILL be home soon, at least you know that! Love you, girl!
