I was productive...

Man am I sore!!!
I spent alllllllll evening pruning in the yard....and man am I sore...I never realized how much bending, grabbing, and pulling there is to be done out there....I mean it's the first 'prune' of the 'season' We 'let it go' over the winter...and I was tired of seeing the over grown bushes of roses! I cut that HUGE ASS bush back to a normal plant size! Then trimmed our VERY over grown asparagus (sp) fern back...planted all the new plants i bought for both the inside of the house and the yard....that was fun :) I'm a planter :)
I arranged everything...then had to take the heaps of clippings to the garbage....talk about thorny....oy....at least only one little poke got through my gloves...so I'm glad about that! I sweeped up the debris left on the walk way from my 'dirty work' and sat down to look at what I'd done for the past few hours....I was impressed :) If hubby didn't take the camera with him on his trip i would have taken a pic!

It looks good ifidosaysomyself :)

tonight is my last night alone in my our bed :) That makes me one happy wife :) When I talked to hubby on the phone this morning he said "I'll see you tomorrow" those words sounded great!

He called me on my drive to work this morning...like he usually does when he's here...since we're both in the car....he's driving to school...and I'm driving to work...we chat until one of us reaches our destination......

I did a bit of tidying up tonight around the house so he comes home to a clean house......not that I let it go while he was gone...I just want him to come home to sparkles!

I did a little shopping this evening before I came home from work...this is what I got...it was all on sale....so I couldn't help myself.....

3 more days!

only 3 more days until I get to SEE my hubby again :)

I've talked to him via AIM while he's been gone but not hearing his voice each day is the hard part!

He's told me that the 'team' are all going on a boat trip around New Haven today...sounds nice....he is excited about that...he plans on taking a lot of pictures. He says that New Haven really reminds him of home...he's sent me a couple pictures...and it 'does' remind me of here....it's a little odd how a place on the other side of the country can look so much like where I live :) I just mean the landscape looks like here.....

Last night my sister and her man friend along with my nephew all came over for dinner...it was a nice time....and it helped to get my mind off of being alone.
Though going to bed alone each night is never easy....but only 3 more nights of that :)

I FINALLY got to take the pooch on a walk yesterday afternoon....it's been rainy for about a week now...but it finally cleared up yesterday...to say he enjoyed being out in the sunshine again would be an understatement! He was romping all about like a little puppy :) I love my poochy woochie :) He's such a good boy....he keeps looking all over the house for his daddy though.....everytime he hears a noise he RUNS to the door to wait for his Master!!! It's funny.....and sad at the same time.....pretty soon his master will be home :)

My kitty cat got randomly violent the other day....my sister was just sitting down and all of a sudden the cat HISSED at her and clawed her and then BIT her HARD! I don't know what that was all about......she turned into evil kitty for a minute there!!! spaz.

okay...that's my update for today.....

3 days and counting!!!!

Alone

My husband left for his first ever business trip today. It's actually training...he starts his new job at the end of this month. It's a great job....the only thing that hasn't been great so far...is that the training is done in freaking Connecticut....ALLLLLLL the way across the ENTIRE United States. I had a hard time letting him go in the early hours of this morning....3 am to be exact. I was in tears...I have a tendancy to 'think the worst' but 'hope for the best'
I watched him drive away...I cried....I crawled back into bed for my last prescious hours of sleep before having to get up for work....I just couldn't fall to sleep...I tried...i really did...but somehow tears just kept flowing. I feel so EMPTY with out my husband. It's like a piece of me is gone right now....it's a weird feeling.

I've been checking on his flight...he made it to Minnesota fine...4 minutes early even! He called me here at work...and I didn't answer...I didn't recognize the number and thought it was this annoying lady who calls me from a company we deal with...and I didn't want to talk to her! It didn't even dawn on me that he would call me from the airport! But he left me a voicemail :) So that was nice.

His connecting flight seems to have been delayed...it only took off 35 minutes ago....it was running 50 minutes behind schedule for non scheduled maintence....which then throws my mind into overdrive...I just worry.

This is hubbys first time ever on an airplane. I hope he enjoyed the flight.
I sure do miss him....and I'm counting down the days until he's home again with me.
I love him so much....

5 more days....and counting....
