Bye Bye Husband
Darn. My husband left for his out of town job yesterday. I miss him already. It’s times like this when you realize how important family is and why you need them close. Well, at least the city is kind of close.
I just realized how we got along splendidly during this recent 2 months of unemployment. I think it was because we (the boys and I) hadn’t seen him for sooooo long before that. Last year at this time, we didn’t see him either, even though he was technically here. He worked almost 7 days each week till late, late at night through fall, winter, and spring. So, during the past 2 months, though he did all of the same things he always did (meaning he constantly 1. told confusing, incomprehensible jokes 2. did really ugly stuff to the house 3. wore embarrassing clothes 4. did lots of other new things–like irritating barbecue-related things)… But it didn’t bother me like before. I was so glad to have him here that none of it mattered much at all.
Oh well. Back to independent living. At least it won’t last too terribly long, then he’ll be home again. (And of course, when I say at “home,” that actually means at “work,” as he usually works all the time. But still. It’s different when he’s out of town.)
Aww, Holly. I feel for you. Despite how irritated I get with my own husband, I don’t know if I could handle him working out of town.
Thanks Noemi. Yes, it certainly minimizes the irritations–even after he returns!
that must have been so nice to spend that kind of time with your husband. I need to get me one of those!
sorry he is away again
Hey there! We are sisters in the husbands-in-the-movies world! I love it when my husband’s on hiatus — he’s a TV guy. Except for that pesky income part.
