Deployment Soundtrack: Just for Me

Just for Me
Blues Traveler, 2001
So Mother Army took my sweet soldier away for 12 months. Then, she brought him back and gave him 30 days off. It was wonderful to have him home, but it was a long 30 days.
What was the best thing that she could do for me?
She sent him back to work!
Thank you, Mother Army!
I need to stay on my schedule as much as he needs to stay on his. Now, back to our regularly scheduled marriage.
Strength and courage … sby
Editor’s Note: The Deployment Soundtrack started in 2012 as we followed Sarah and her three children as they navigated the joys and frustrations of her husband’s fifth deployment to the Mideast. Sarah’s Sweet Soldier returned home in March, 2013. The Deployment Soundtrack has now morphed into the Soundtrack of Sarah’s Life as she leads her family through homecoming and reintegration.
“Sweet friends, this is where the "rubber meets the road." I hear you out there, and just because we have closed the books on deployment number five doesn't mean that I am going to leave you behind.” – sby
