Looking forward to paying bills? I must be crazy.

Sean and I were talking today, discussing the usual 'how we're going to feel throughout the deployment/how to make the year go by faster/etc'. He had a thought concerning the bills I'll be paying over the course of the year.

12 billing cycles. That's all there will be from his departure to his return. After the first month of bills, only 11 more of those bad boys to go. Yes, I know it doesn't make the year any shorter, but to have something far less than 365 to start counting down.. well, I think it'll help.

  2. That actually is a great way to look at it! I would never have thought of that, but it sounds quicker than 12 months. And each time you sit down and pay the bills, you will have a sense of accomplishing something while getting closer to Sean's return.

    And if that doesn't work, there's always your Harriman/Clark family. We're all within shouting distance!

  3. Now that's a great way to turn a negative into a positive. I think the year will go much faster than you think. I suspect your blog updates will increase over the year. It would be great if you could convince Sean to start a blog. It would be interesting to merge the two blogs together once the deployment is over. It would be a long love letter of sorts. Hang in there. ~ Brian
