the love of my life just left to iraq yesterday. i dropped him off at 1am, then he took a bus from camp pendleton to march airforce base. i was able to talk to him on the phone for a few minutes while he was there. he then flew from there to maine. again, he called me from there and we spoke for a few minutes. that was about 7:30 last night. he had to go because his flight was leaving. he said he was flying to germany, then to kuwait.  he has briefs in kuwait for who knows how long, then they're off to iraq.  i'm crazy worried. i don't know how long it takes to get to germany from maine, or to kuwait from germany. i have absolutely no idea what part of the world he's in and it's driving me crazy. i hate not knowing when i will hear from him next.

    When he gets a chance he can use Skype to talk to you over the internet and of course there's email. If he can use a webcam you can actually see each other on Skype too for free. War is hell.

    I know exactly how you feel! My husband left for Iraq also and being away from him and wondering if he is ok is the hardest part. I am just looking forward to the day he comes back home.

    My heart goes out to you. I can't imagine what you must be going through. You are in my prayers and I hope the time passes quickly so that you may be together again soon.
