Apparently, shipping your husband off to the Middle East pays pretty well. Mikey came home last night really excited because of all the intell he had collected about going to Kuwait. He's going to get seperation pay, hazardous duty pay, tdy, and maybe something else as well. And since there's nowhere for me to spend the money and he doesn't plan on going crazy, we are going to have a nice little bit of money by the time he gets back. I don't know where this figure came from, I honestly don't, but he kept talking about \$18,000. For 3 months? That's more than I made in an entire year as a PFC in the Army. If it's true though, there are a lot of bills that will get paid off. Hell, even after all our everyday living expences are paid for, we could probably climb out of debt with what's left over.

I'm bringing him down though, I know. He's super excited about leaving. It's something that all of his coworkers are jealous of, but all of his coworkers are single. I worry about what will happen to me if he leaves. I've got an unhealthy addiction to the internet and if left to my own devices I might never sleep again. My kids will die from neglect, Ican see it already. I've got to kick this habit.

Dare has a tooth now. You can see it whan he smiles, but if you try to pull down his lip for a better look he'll try to eat your finger. It's been about a week and I've managed to feed him without significant injury. I've heard the horror stories about women being bitten by their babies and having glands in their nipples become infected. Eeek! So far so good though. If he ever did bite me I think that's the time I'd start to wean him. There won't be any chewing on me, thank you very much.
