15 days
I know that I have only been here for one month so far, but I am more than ready to go home and see my family. I miss them so very much. I guess that I got spoiled on shore duty, I got to see them everyday. I think that they miss me too.
Time here has started to go a little faster, there is more work to be done and I am qualified to do it again. One of the hardest thing about coming here was not being able to do the work that I used to be so good at doing. There are things that I don't remember but It has gotten a lot better. The squadron has started making preparations to come home: relocation of Aircraft, and personnel etc. Everyone wants to go home.
I was really looking forward to going to Japan. I wanted to take pictures of the places I had been before and that held memories for Stella and I, but with the liberty policy that is in place that is very near impossible. Today is my scheduled day off and then I will have Thanksgiving off (the 23rd for you in the states, we are a day ahead here). That will be that last time I will have to myself before I go home.
When I call home and hear the kids in the background I can tell that they have grown up so much in the little time that I have been gone. Penelope talks and sings and dances all of the time. Nikolaki has been going to school for a while now and tells me all the stuff he has been learning. He has enjoyed making tents in the living room and hiding in them. Just today the movie "Titanic" was playing on TV and when he saw the ship start to sink he got very interested. Then he told Stella he wanted to see it again. Now he is watching the whole movie from the beginning. I think that it is so funny that he likes that movie. Before I left he wanted to watch "Under the Tuscan Sun". He is so cute. Stella misses having adult conversation, we talk every day but because of the time difference and my work schedule it is hard to talk for longer than just a few minutes. I miss the time we spent sitting in front of the fire place talking after we put the children to bed.
I guess the point of all this rambling is that I am leaving here in Fifteen days and then every thing will be normal, again.
