Still no worrd from her, but I'm a lot less worried now. Thank you all for cluing me in as to how long it could take to hear from her again.
I'm doing okay, all things considered. I'm still having trouble sleeping at night, and she's constantly on my mind, but I'm coping a lot better. It never really occured to me just how long a year could feel.
Sorry if I've been neurotic or whiney lately. I don't mean to be. I always considered myself a strong person until this deployment shit. It's left me a quivering mass of jelly, and I don't like the feeling at all. So I'm gritting my teeth, kicking myself in the ass, and coming to grips with it.
I will get by.

It will take some getting used to . . be patient . . . . it will get easier as time goes by.
The time will pass . . . quicker than you can imagine.
ps . . you're not neurotic or whiney . . . you are a loving and caring person.
