Missing him

I guess this post is more for journaling than anything else...so read if you want, I just need to let some feelings out. Missing my main man right now. He just left for another week in California. Man, this sucks. I seriously wish it was August 1 already. I hate these lonely quiet nights. Once the kids are in bed, and sound asleep, its so quiet around here. I miss the conversations with him, the laughter, the love, snuggling and watching a movie together. He has only been gone a few hours, but man its lonely. Its been almost a full year since we have endured this trial of being apart every week, and only together on the weekends. Its hard. Really hard. This guy is my everything. I'm getting to the point that I can't handle saying good bye on Sunday nights. I don't want those nights to come, it depresses me. In all reality, I wish our time on the weekends could go on forever. They are the happiest moments, all together as family. I dread weekdays. I love that I get to spend time with my babies, but its hard. Really hard. Some things I am grateful for:
* Casey has a good job, that is paying the bills
* I have a husband that is a hard worker
*We are all healthy
*We found a place to live and move to in a few months
*We have AMAZING friends and family
*We get to be togther in 7 weeks, I get to see my husband every morning and every night
*I get to see and play at the beautiful beaches in California
*I get to be a SAHM again :) (won't be doing daycare in cali!)
*Did I mention I get to see my main man EVERY DAY?!?!

Sometimes we all go through trials, some harder than others, but sometimes I just have to endure. I pray a lot, to get me through the week. I miss Casey so much, its unreal. I am so thankful for him and what he does to provide for our family. Can't wait to be with you soon babe!

That definitaely has got to be hard. I can't even imagine Brad being gone for a day or two let alone every week. Hang in there. Like you said only a few more weeks but I'm sure it will seem like eternity. We'll have to go to the park or go swimming with the kids.

Having your hubby gone is such a hard thing. It is definately harder at nights when all is quiet. I can't wait for you to be able to spend lots of time with him in your new home in Cali.

I don't know how you ever made it this long megs, you are a million times stronger than me and you are such a good wife and mother and I look up to you so so much. Hang in there and come hang out with me!

Man, the things we all take for granted! I can't imagine being away from my husband for that long! Hang in there! I'm excited for you to be able to move out to Cali-what an adventure! :)

Meg, I admire your strength and how devoted both you and your husband are to your family. It's great to see that those types of commitments are still going strong in this day and age. Just keep yourself busy, and hopefully the time will fly so fast that you'll be here in CA soon enjoying all we have to offer.

Meghan, I seriously don't think I could do that--what a great wife you are to be able to endure all of this for a YEAR! I'm glad there's a light at the end of this tunnel for you all. And lucky you--I would KILL for some fun in the sun on a beach right about now!

Hey Meg, i am glad you put your thoughts out there-you are probably about the only one that knows how i feel all too often-it is nice that you do get to see him on weekends though--i am excited for you to move there to be with him-being without the hubs leaves a hole in your heart--believe me, I know! hang in there :)

I know how you feel in a sense. My hubby works here but I still don't see him much. Most nights I have a quiet house too and it gets lonely. I can't imagine him being that many miles away. YOu have been so strong and so positive through it all. I am happy for your family and that you can all be together again. Just only go down there for a short time though, then move back. We are really going to miss you.

You are so tough Meg! I'm glad it will be all over for you soon. Good luck on the move and everything that is coming up. I'll be thinking about you!

Definately! I am sure you are having lots of feelings right now, but my best advice is not to wig out just becuase you're moving to somewhere bigger/different than what you're used to. Just don't sweat it, you'll figure out the freeways and everything soon enough and before you know it you'll have all these new favorite hangouts and friends in your new ward; you will do great. I think that you will wind the church is very welcoming here, especially to a family like yours, we love young families out here, it's not like utah where every new person in the ward is a very active young cute family. You will make friends fast. And it will be fun to meet up, can't wait. Do you need help when you move in? It would be a breeze for us to come up and help on moving day. Simi Valley isn't far at all, it's only about an hour and half. I'm serious about that, let me know! (I will ask you again in 7 weeks!)
