Lonely Hearts Club

So my husband went out of town on Sunday and is not getting back until Friday. whimper. We are so co-dependent that it is not even funny. Two days before he left we would find ourselves looking at each other and spontaneously bursting into tears. We are so pathetic.lol. Needless to say, it has been a very weird week. It has however been pretty busy thanks in part to my friends and family. If it were not for them I would have been at home far too often and found many more opportunities to cry.
Sunday on the way back from the airport his parents stopped and bought me lunch at the Olive Garden. They sent me home well fed and a little more emotionally stable.
My birthday was this Monday and it was hard to have him out of town, except that a really great friend treated me to dinner at the Vortex in Atlanta, and she even brought me flowers and cake. That is love people.
My parents came down this week too, and treated me to lunch and a little afternoon shopping and tomorrow I am going to dinner with my sister-in-law.
Thank goodness for staying busy, however I have noticed a trend.... It is hard not to be a fat kid when all things revolve around food (it is even worse you are emotional). It seems like I am drowning my loneliness in great food, cake, and the best of friends and family.
But I still can't wait for him to come home. I feel like a huge piece of me is gone and traveling somewhere far away.

Signs of True Love

So I spent the better part of last night curled over my toilet sick as a dog.grrr. But in the course of feeling ill my wonderful husband did some things that reminded my what true love is. Romance is great, and passion is an ingredient but true love sustains all.

You know it's love when they .....

1) clean out your puke bowl for you.

2) get dressed and run to the store in the middle of the night to get anything you need, and (this part is important) they do it without complaining.lol.

3) rub your feet without being asked.

4) tell you that you look beautiful without makeup, and that you don't need to wear it. (yeah right!)

these are my first few on the list, but i am sure that i will continually add on.
