I hope you all had a great Christmas and a wonderful New Years. I am glad that you all just hung out on New Years and were low key, DC girls, cause that's the best! Y'all know Wanda never has a problem staying in on the couch watching bad tv...for hours. But, alas, I actually did something this year and it was fun! In an effort to avoid getting depressed and sad on my first New Years in 5 years without Davey, I got proactive and made plans and bought a ticket to the New Years party at the Adventure Science Center. Yes, the children's science museum. Unfortunately (but fortunately for the exhibits) we were not allowed to go into any of the really cool areas, which is understandable since drunk people and delicate objects don't mix well. It was an open bar and lots of people were there. They had a dance floor and a DJ and they were giving out free "space walk" rides (how that goes better with drunk people, I am not sure). I went with Bracey and Carter as my dates, but there were some others girls there that I knew too. Overall is was a success! Here are some pictures...
Now to the title of my blog post. Tomorrow marks 3 weeks since I've seen Davey and the reality of his absence has really begun to set in this last week. I'm not exactly realllyyy sad yet, but am beginning to get a little bit lonely and miss him in waves, especially when I'm doing something that I wish he were there for. But overall what's gotten me this past week is that I am basically living my single life all over again and it's weirding me out!
I feel a little bit like I'm in an alternate universe and that I turned the dial back a few years. I mean, at this moment I'm sitting here at my parents' house, eating cereal in my bed, staying up too late on the computer doing absolutely nothing, etc. etc. Pretty much I have immediately regressed back to my former self. This is probably a pretty unique opportunity to have as a married woman, since you don't usually completely separate from your husband like this unless you're divorced. I must say that my first impression of this new re-singleness is making me feel 2 things...1) Grateful for this opportunity to see how much I have enjoyed being married to Davey and spending time with him this past 1 1/2 and 2) Tired, because I am going to bed so late because I can't stop playing on the computer!! It's terrible. Really, it is.
Well that's all for now. I'm so looking forward to seeing you DC girls so soon!! Whoop. You 3 are single-handedly getting me through January...no pressure! Also, I posted a new blog about Davey's time at boot camp on my page if you want to check it out! Since he left I've been able to talk to him 2 times for about 35 minutes each, which has been nice.
Love you all!
