I was just sitting here thinking that wow!! 3 months have gone by........when you think about it thats a long time. All the things we could or would have been doing if he was home. Like every Friday we have date night we go out for dinner somewhere, I haven't done that since he left. We go food shopping together on Saturday to the base, and walk around the NEX. Or got up to LA we normally do something every weekend. hmmmm just weird to think he has been gone for such a long time, and we still have a ways to go. I miss him :(

Do any of you ladies think about the things you would or could be doing with your SO right now.........I mean I know we all think about sex lol thats a given:hehe

:hugs to all you ladies out there missing your men right now.

OMG it's Andrea!

I know sweetie :( but you never know what fate has in store for you, it could be Joe or it could be someone even better. :hugs Deployment could be the reason for all his confusion, and things might change when he gets home. :hugs

When the twins and I do stuff, it always makes me miss my husband more. I always think how he would like going to the pool or museums, or just throwing a football around in the backyard. He's been gone for his birthday and the twins' birthday. :( And they grow so fast, he's missing so much.

Only three (supposed to be anyway) months to go!

I know the feeling. We've almost got 3 months behind us too and longer than that to go. It's really starting to wear on me. I kinda feel like I have completely forgotten what it feel like to snuggle and kiss and even :sex . Don't get me wrong, I MISS HIM LIKE CRAZY. I just am starting to realize that I'll have to readjust to him being here once he gets home. Right now I'm used to him being gone (which doesn't make me miss him any less; it just makes it easier to have a routine). Did that make any sense? I guess it's just my way of coping...is that normal?

ANYWAYYYYY...I feel you girl. I'm missing DB too. :hugehug :hugehug WE WILL MAKE IT!

Yes i totally understand, i know i will have to readjust also when he gets home, I am hogging the whole bed now lol, but I miss him being in it. But yeh we do get into our own little routines, I think we have to in order to cope better without them :) :hugs

I think about just him holding me and being goofy. He wrinkles his nose and makes goofy mean faces. He pretends to sulk and flounces off with his nose in the air and his big ears make me :giggle. I miss the way he kisses me and his hugs. :sigh :sigh:sigh:sigh

I do all the time. I know I may sound crazy, but when I am falling asleep, watching a movie, cooking.... sometimes I close my eyes and imagine he is right there with me. Just the idea makes me smile. I miss him so much :(

Of course but I know we will have plenty of years together to enjoy and explore new things together.

This is an exerpt from my Myspace blog from April 5th:
Today has been a good day. But I miss the shit out of my husband. Today is the kind of day we’d be hanging out here at the house. It’s overcast and rainy so we’d be inside. He’d be watching golf, and I’d be sitting there under his arm on the couch, wishing he was watching something other than golf, but not caring enough to mention it. I’d get up to get the laundry out of the dryer and he’d absentmindedly help me fold it. Paige would come running up and ask daddy to help her do a puzzle, and he’d move himself onto the floor and help her peice together Mickey, or maybe Pooh. Then I’d get up and put the laundry away, say "how’s your beer?" and offer another if he wanted one. I’d figure out what to cook for dinner and pull it out of the freezer. **sigh**



I think about things like that alot, Sue. I think about what we'd be doing if he were here. I think about how he'd react or what he'd have to say when the kids do cute (or not so cute) things. Sometimes I wish I didn't think about them, but then I remember that this whole navy thing is just a short time when put in perspective with the rest of our life together. It's a short thing for long time security. It's rough. But it'll be over one of these days. After all, "Love is patient..."

KevnSue - I think our hubs must be deployed together, cause I just passed our 3 month/halfway mark also.

I know what you mean with getting used to having him here to go to the store with on Saturdays. I usually send him to get stuff that I forgot and already passed the aisle for it.
