Your New Scentsy Consultant
Well there you have it. I've joined the band wagon. I'm really excited about it, though. I love Scentsy and I've never heard of any complaints from anybody who's ever used Scentsy's products.
For those of you who don't know what Scentsy is, let me give you the run down...
Scentsy sells wickless candles that slowly burns Scentsy Bars (Bars made up of food-grade paraffin wax), contained within various burners of different shapes and sizes, that fills your house with these beautiful fragrances.
All of the warmers use a low-watt bulb and warm the Scentsy bars to a safe enough degree that even children, pets, etc can touch the liquid and not burn themselves.
As for my experience with the product: I have a plug in and a full sized warmer. They make my entire house smell like the scent within moments. I've honestly never found anything as successful as Scentsy in making my house smell so delicious.
If this sounds like something that would interest you, I invite you to checkout my website or contact me via Facebook, my website, or leave a comment :).
And even if YOU are not interested, I'm sure there is somebody you know that would love Scentsy. They make great Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers ;)

He's Home!!!!!!!
I have waited 363 days to make this post.
First off, let me assure you that the end of this deployment was nothing but horrendous. We encountered 100 bazillion delays including DH contracting Malaria 24 hours before he was supposed to fly to Germany.
After 2 weeks of delays and giving up hope that I would ever see DH again, he came home. He arrived *on time* on Sunday at 6:45pm. I saw his plane flying towards us in the distance from the hangar. It was… surreal. Knowing that my husband, who I hadn't seen in 9 consecutive months and had traveled 7,000 miles to make it home, was mere yards away was the most exciting experience.
He was one of the first people off the plane and we saw each other right away. After seeing him, I ran inside the hangar, stood by the stage, and waited as they marched in. He was right in front of me after they marched in. I was so excited I was literally shaking.
When they were released for 15 min, I ran to him and was embraced in the biggest/ most emotional hug of my life. It couldn't have been better.
Reintegration (which consists of the past 4 days) has gone very well. We're not suffocating each other with 24/7 contact, nor are we distancing ourselves from each other. Everything just seems… normal.
In 2 weeks we'll head to NJ and Vegas for block leave :). Can't wait!

DOM Check!!
Here is the moment we've all been waiting for!!!
1.5% left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those of you that know the basic percentages for a DOM, you know that there is practically no time left. I've had to resort to Tylenol PM in order to get any sleep. My mind is racing, my stomach is in knots, and I suddenly feel like there isn't enough time in the day to get everything done that I need to.
But none of that really matters does it? Because DH is coming hoooome!!!! It's amazes me that a year has come and gone, but it did. I think I'm still in shock. Could this deployment really be ending??? Believe it or not, it is.
Ah yes, the end is near :)

Reflection
As this deployment comes to an end, it's made me reflect on the past year.
Deployments are never fun. I think that goes without saying. However, they are memorable. For better or for worse, it's an experience you will never forget. It's something that shapes you, changes you as a person whether you were overseas or "left behind."
These past few weeks have just about killed me. It is the VERY last bit of this deployment and it started to frustrate me, anger me, drive me insane. I began to wonder how on Earth I could have possibly survived 11 months when I can hardly get through 3 weeks. But as I see and hear about other people beginning a deployment, it has reminded me of this past year. The start of their journeys have reminded me of mine.
Of course things always look better in hindsight. Still, I can almost look back on this year with fondness. It was a year that I learned a lot about myself and DH. It was a year that I learned how much I could handle, how independent I could be, how strong I am. It taught me to be self sufficient, to rely on myself for entertainment, to find peace in the simple things because there wasn't much peace left.
Optimism kept me sane. At times I was blindly optimistic with the hope of early homecomings, and hours-long Skype dates. But sometimes being blind isn't so bad. Sometimes we need to close our eyes to the reality of life in order to cherish hope. Hope kept me alive.
No, he didn't come home months early. But we made it. Whether I made it by living off of the hope for better things to come or by simply ducking my head and running through the days that I didn't want to remember, doesn't matter anymore. I made it.
We made it.
