Snookums Is Stressed

Today was yet another wonderful day. I'm settling into my
new lifestyle rather comfortably. I'm still trying to
train my body not to want food in the evenings, and it's
going well, but there is still some resistance at times.
Right now I'm feeling the slightest rumblings in my tummy.
I had a very satisfying dinner, so I know I shouldn't be
hungry, but my body is so use to getting a carb overload
this time of day, that it's going through withdrawals not
getting it anymore. It's for it's own good. I can honestly
say, snacking at night is the only thing I miss and not
even all the time. Just occasionally. I'm obsessing about
it right now, only because I'm trying to get through a
snack attack. Once it's over, I'll be able to move on......
Okay, I'm done.

I did my usual routine today, so there's nothing new to
write about there, I didn't do my Pilates tonight because
Snookums and I have "plans". I'll just leave it at that,
but you get the idea. I'm writing a bit early so that I
can fall asleep afterwards. I know that's what I'm going
to want to do.

The only thing I want to get off of my chest tonight is
about Snookums. I'm worried about him. Since he got to the
Stennis (the ship he's on now), he's been put into a role
of supervisor, when he never was the supervisor type. He's
the watch and follow type. Now he's responsible for what a
dozen other sailors are suppose to be doing and I think
the stress is starting to get to him. He seems more quiet
and introspective and overall just more tired and runned
down. I'm worried the stress of being a leader, when that
isn't his personality type will make him unhappy in the
long run. It's the Navy, I know he has no control over
what he does, and I know he does take pride in the fact
that he's moving up in the ranks, but I don't want to lose
the man I married, either. I'm trying to keep the Navy out
of the house, but it's encroaching more and more. Now he's
bringing home books on tides and Naval protocol and other
reading materials he didn't give a crap about before. I
just want the best for him. I know it's in his best
interest to make rank and do well in his career, but at
what cost to his happiness? He needs help finding a
balance. He's got the test for First Class coming up next
month and I hope after that things start to calm down
again. I'm truely hoping he makes First Class, because it
will make him happy and it means more shopping money for
me =) Just kidding. Not really.

Well, that's all the time I have for tonight. I'm going to
go get laid and pass out. I'm already tired, so sex will
probably put me in a coma =) Ciao for now.
