I know all about frustration in waiting. I thought I would lose my mind when I waited 6 months for my Shelby Cobra replica to get built and delivered to my home. Everyday was hell and was finding every reason to blame my car builder for taking 6 months to build me a car. In the end, I wish I was more patient and afforded him whatever time or delays needed to get the job done correctly. Haste makes waste and questionable quality is often the result of an expedited job.
Don't linger too much in frustration. After all, getting your Camaro or TransAm back before your wife deploys should not make a difference whether you will have a great time with your wife in the weeks or days prior to her deployment. Save the frustration til after she has left. Is there anything else SHE (not you) would love to do with you before she deploys? A short cruise perhaps? A weekend getaway?

I spent 10 years in the military... 7 years aboard a USS carrier. It was always tough to deploy and back then, I was more concerned with my cars, as far as how they would get looked after, cleaned, driven, etc. etc. than anything or anyone else. Yep, I was too stupid then....
I may be off target here but I hope you get the point.

Cheers.
