Here we go again. More time apart. More time where the best we can get together is a phone call or an IM during the day. By April it will have been 4 years of this back and forth time away from each other.
I can’t wait for it to end.
I left today at 5:15AM. Drove myself to the airport. Went through security. Boarded my plane. Made “the call”. And then it hit me. I missed you. Yup that quickly. I looked at my watch (awesome BTW) and it was only 6:10AM. Not even an hour had passed.
While that may seem like a ridiculous amount of time, I knew what was coming. The next 3 days I wake up alone. No wife in the bed next to me. No trying to quietly take out the puppy and then play with her while you sleep. I changed my IM status (I have no facebook – so its the best I have) to read “Tomorrow morning is going to suck”. No one but me knows why. Well I guess now you do.
Remember when we could claim that we had not spent even a single night apart in our marriage? That seems so long ago.
I guess you should be flattered. I really need to be near you. It makes me so much happier. I feel so much more a part of your life when i am home. I want to be with you at home. Period.
That is why this new business is so important to me. While the money will be nice, the best part will be having a normal life with you. It will be so nice to be able to take normal day to day stuff for granted.
So 2010 is the year. The year we get back to normal. A life together. Really together. No more days away counts. Scarily we will top 500 days at some point early this year. 500 DAYS! That is almost a year and a half! 2010 is the “Year of Togetherness” for us. Count on it. I will make it happen.
So while this blog entry wasn’t romantic or poignant. It is important. I need you to know how important us being together is to me. How much I want to be with YOU every day. I just want you to know that is my most important goal for 2010. It is my resolution of sorts.
You’re the world to me. I love you more than anything in the world.
