He's going away, and I'm left with craziness

Well, today my hubby officially left to start his (and our) journey back into military life. Now I should start out telling you how my day went. First, I woke up at 4 a.m. cause my hubby was leaving at 4:30 and of course I wanted to talk to him and see him off. So we talked, and at about 4:20 he goes into the girls rooms to kiss them goodbye. He comes back in our room and says that Kierstin is awake, so of course I tell him to have her come climb in bed with me. (My intentions were to go to back to sleep when he left) She climbs in bed, and I ask her what she's doing awake...reply: "I don't feel good". Great! As if today wasn't going to be hard enough. So the hubby leaves, and ten minutes after he leaves, she is throwing up all over the place. This continued all morning, even as I was trying to get myself ready for work, I'm lucky I even had a shower, and I definately am not looking my best today.

So I leave her home with Jake (the "3rd" child -my hubbys brother who lives with us)(he's 18). I go to work, exhausted. I am so frigging tired I could literally sleep sitting up at my desk.

Now a little background so you understand my work environment. I work with 2 older men. One is a 45 yr old virgin, who has never had a girlfriend, wife, or kids....and he smells kind of funny. Not only that but its hard to carry a conversation on with him cause he stutters alot. (I'm not trying to be mean, it just is what it is), And the owner of my company is pretty laid back, but wears shirts that his chest hair hangs out of, and most of the time he comes into work with bedhead. We work in a small office...so, if your not working...its obvious. So needless to say I'm struggling just to make it through the day.

And to top it all off, I accidentally opened "Jake's" mail from his bank....thinking it was ours, and lo and behold his bank account is overdrawn $500 dollars and they are closing it. Great....this should be fun to deal with. So theres the summary of the day so far. Its been so exhausting that I haven't even had a chance for it to sink in that my hubbys gone for the next couple months. I'm sure tomorrow when I've had some sleep it will all set in.
