Here’s a post from an Army wife that is nervous about redeployment – I’ve certainly been there!
\nYou can read her blog here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We got our first \u201cre-deployment\u201d email today. And, I have to tell you, it\u2019s kind of crazy.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get me wrong, I am totally 100% excited that my husband will finally be coming home in just a few short months. And getting the emails with the timeline just make it all that more real. But I think that\u2019s the crazy part. It\u2019s REALLY happening soon.<\/p>\n

And part of me, well, is kind of scared about that.<\/p>\n

We all say that things aren\u2019t going to change. That during deployments, we\u2019re going to keep on truckin\u2019 like our lives around being slammed around by a giant semi. And we all know how hard and frustrating it is to actually keep that promise to ourselves and our spouses. As I\u2019ve mentioned before, there comes a time where you sort of just accept the change that comes, and you go with a new flow.<\/p>\n

And now, that new flow that I\u2019ve developed is getting ready to change again. Is it wrong for me to be nervous and somewhat scared about it? Because I would be lying if I didn\u2019t tell you that I was. I feel like things are better this time. That WE are better this time. But him coming home \u2014 however much I want it to happen (and I do, I promise I promise I promise I do) \u2014 it\u2019s still a major change. Again. Something new to once again try to get used to, whether it\u2019s little things like somebody suddenly hogging all the bed space and covers (*ahem*) or major changes, like having to re-learn your relationship all over again. But whatever it is, it\u2019s not the same as what I (or you) have been living with for the past year, and it\u2019s definitely not going to be the same as it was last time he came home, nor is it going to be the same as that entire year he was home in between deployments. Get where I\u2019m going with this? \";)\"<\/p>\n

Basically what I\u2019m saying is that I don\u2019t think there is such a thing as an easy transition post deployment. If somebody out there has had a piece of cake homecoming, please, share with the group.<\/p>\n

But I don\u2019t think, whatever I do, that I will be prepared for it \u2014 good or bad. And that can be very, very nerve-wracking.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
