Campbell's Corner

no words can express

fair warning--this post might not make sense but i just need to get my thoughts out there.

not to be debbie downer, but life has been rough and i am more than ready for it to start getting better! one of my best friend's brother died on saturday (he was only 38 y/o) and the funeral was today. i have been to quite a few funerals in my day but this was rough! it was not expected, he was not sick, there was no accident or suicide, hopefully the autopsy will reveal something. i couldn't help but think how horrified i would be if it were my brother or sister as we are all very close. not to mention, the last funeral i went to was my step-dad's in 2005 and of course it brought back all the emotions of that. i tried my best to be strong for my friend "C" but really there is nothing anyone can do to make the pain go away.

on another note, my husband is deploying to the middle east shortly after we move into our new house and that totally has me freaked out! i know i should be used to this by now as he has been in the air force for 8 years now but since the announcement of the navy seals being killed last week i am terrified and don't know who to tell. it's not a normal occurrence for seals or for my husband's unit to be in "harms way" over there--by this i mean people usually don't know they are there. (hence why we don't state when/where they go and when they return.)

prayers are welcome and needed in nc!

now that i have all of that off my chest, here is what else has been going on with me since i neglected the blog world last week-my bad-

we do our final walk through on the house next tuesday (aug 16) and close that friday (aug 19), so excited for this! my sister and bro-in-law will be in monday the 20th to help us get settled in. i am scheduled to be off work from the 19th-29th which happens to be my 28th birthday! and my hubby surprised me with a new turquoise jpk purse that i love!
