My Sustaining Friends

That's how I feel when I think about the past month. It looks like Shane will be leaving December 3rd for Iraq. All of our weekends until then are full with things that must get done. We must go back to Virginia to close out some things, we have a function we must attend the following weekend, the next weekend Shane's family will be in town and then the following weekend he leaves-Can I make time stop for a minute-everything is moving way too fast-I need to catch my breath-WAIT! I feel so down, not jovial-my dad died and then I will be dealing with the absence of my husband-HOW can I get through?? I've thought alot about it and I realize that I will be SUSTAINED by my friends. My life long best friends will get me through by phone, my CKU friends I will party with twice next year but I will have a group of girlfriends here that will get me through as well. My sustaining friends. The ones I will be crafting with, eating with, laughing with, crying with, and we will be there for each other for all of us will be without our husbands and some of us don't have fathers to help support us. I will be sustained. I've been telling myself this for days now. I will come out okay-sustained, sustained.

Looks liek a fun time you were having with your firends. And I agree. Friends are amazing people who can help you through any rough times.

It is always comforting to know that you have friends that have shoulders at your disposal. And I have one you can always use...
