Stress

Work has been really stressful for the last 2 weeks. One of the paralegals has been out with some sort of eye infection and claims she can't see. I think it's all a bunch of Bologna. I think she just wanted 2 weeks off work. She came in earlier this week and walked around like a blind person would. For the love of monkeys- if you're blind HOW IN THE HECK CAN YOU DRIVE!?!? And it's not a short distance from her house here, it's a good 20 minutes. I'm just upset because it has put so much stress on myself and the other 2 paralegals. We have been running around the office trying to cover our butts. And to make matters worse, the attorney is also the city attorney for a small town in the area and is hardly ever here. Pretty much we are running his law practice. Not a good thing. With all that said, I still feel really blessed to have this job.

I feel the 'I'm running out of time to get things done before Tom gets home' feeling- It's nice. Tomorrow I'm going out to dinner with Sarah, a follow wife from the squadron. I really like hanging out with her- she's fun. She doesn't have any kids either so we always joke we're going to be attached at the hip once our husbands leave. One week at her house, the next at mine. It will be fun. Saturday I plan on making a trip to Target to return some things and maybe the beach. I would like to get a nice glow for Tom's arrival. It's funny how I think he's going to notice or even care if my skin is one shade darker. Sunday Tom's ETA is 4:30 pm. That means I will have to leave for the air station around 4 so I can be there when he gets off the plane. Last summer when he got back from Yuma I just told him to call me when he landed and when I got there all the other wives were all waiting for their husbands. I felt bad. I'm going to be a good military wife this time.

3 MORE DAYS TILL MR. WONDERFUL IS HOME!
