Adam’s short time with his girls
Well as Adam slept today (he hasn’t been getting home until 1:30 am) I realized how he hardly ever sees Angel. He sees her for about an hour a day. I wonder if that bothers him. He would probably say yes. For a while, the military, at least for us, was going for this family-oriented theme, but that has really changed. The people where Adam works are not very understanding especially about family situations. For instance, a few weeks ago Dannan was hospitalized for having the flu. I begged Adam not to go into work, but after calling his “boss”, he, she, they, whoever they are, made him go to work anyways. I was stuck at hospital with our sick little girl all by myself and I was constantly having these bouts of crying. I had no one there to support me. It sucked. Dannan is fine now, but I am still pretty mad about the bureaucracy. I know a few years back Clinton signed a law saying that if you had sick family members, you couldn’t be punished for not going into work. I guess he wrote it for everyone other than themilitary. I know Adam has to work and the military “owns” him, but do they think he is just going to throw away his family?
Sometimes i think the only military should be single people. That way all the “dear John” letters can be avoided, and the strain of separation or crazy hours wont affect anybody, but themselves. They would not have any kids to miss or wives/husbands to cheat. I know that this is impossible, but I have learned a lot over the years. I support the troops, but some of these people are just plain stupid and rude and greedy with my spouse and I am fed up.
I worry about Adam because he has missed so much of Angel, and sometimes he isn’t always there for Dannan. Plus let’s not forget how he has been desensitized. I hope that once he gets away from these people here, he can begin to be less stressed in better job actually doing something he loves!
