This particular dream occurred about a month before I came home.  Now that the holiday is over and the superstitious deja vu that accompanies strange dreams cannot occur, I decided it was safe to relate. The dream hasn’t recurred at all, but it has sort of stuck around my subconscious so I am putting in down “on paper.”

Ok, so I’ve been home a little more than a week now.  I finished my re-integration training and am on leave for the holidays.  It feels really good to be home, although my wife is a little annoyed that I seem to spontaneously fall asleep around 8pm and wake up around 5am.  Its been pretty busy too.  Had to prepare for Santa, get work orders in for all the things falling apart in this lovely post house, get vehicles road worthy, and basically get used to new routines and habits. 

So I have made it home again.  We arrived back a few days ago and I have been spending all my time enjoying my family and catching up on all the stuff that I have missed.  Its kind of surreal right now.  My mind and body is on one set of routines and schedules and my life is on another.  I guess it will take a while to re-adjust, but I wouldn’t give it up for anything.  Its so good to be with my family, eat real food, sleep in a soft bed, and not worry about things exploding at any time.
