Iowa is good for something.

So I guess Iowa is good for something. I am stuck here for a few days for work. For those of you in the know yes I am here to make the donuts. Cresco has been surprisingly good so far. It has gone by really really fast. We leave tomorrow and then I will be gone camping for a few days before my next donut adventure. The last month has been a difficult one. I have been more stressed and it has come out in what I have accomplished and how much I have been drinking. This is not a good way to deal with stress and I know that. It will be nice to get away from that for a few days.

The one thing that I am annoyed with is that the Minnesota media is making a big deal of the 2,600 member deployment that is coming how in the next couple months. Literally the are to leave with in weeks of when my husband is supposed to leave country. It is hard because I see so many happy families welcoming their soldiers home but I am yet at the beginning of this experience. There are days when it feels like it will be years before I am the one welcoming my soldier home. I know that I will get by by taking one day at a time but, some days are really tough.

Anyway this is Maggi live from Cresco, Iowa signing off. Hope you are all well. I will update you after I return from the woods.
