So, my DB told me yesterday that he would call me today....I told him it was okay if he couldn't and he said he def. would. He also told me he would get on the internet...and he hasn't....I know I shouldn't be worried, but I am....I had to go to his apartment tonight (which is an hour away) to get one of my school books and to get his mail. I moved back home after he left because my parents actually live much much closer to my work, I met him after I got the job. I was actually doing okay, even with him not calling me today until I got to his apartment. I haven't been there since he left...it was so lonely and quiet...and dark and scary. I layed on his/our bed and just breathed in the scent of him...that was all it took. I replenished my stash of his clothes that I sleep surrounded by. I call it my nest of Joe. I sleep with the pillow case he had made for me with his picture on it that says I Love You, the stuffed animals hes gotten me, his picture right next to me, and his clothes all around me. Maybe thats why I can't sleep well still?? I wake up crying every hour almost. It is strange how since he left it got cold outside....That is how I feel without him. cold, dry, and empty. Thanks for letting me vent!:tears

:hugehug i always get worried when i know i shouldn't i think its something that cant be avoided he will call soon enough and everything will be better

:hugehug We're all here for you.

i know what you mean. My husband hasn't even left yet....but the apartment feels dark, my puppy even seems depressed.

just tryyyy to be positive, look for things to keep busy with....


good luck girl.

aww...that's super cute...you're lucky that you have those reminders of him...my apartment only has a few pictures and "our" apartment is 2000 miles away! i would KILL to be able to go out there just to be surrounded by him and our memories and our stuff...

he'll call soon, no worries, hun! :hugehug

:hugs it was sad and made me cry when i helped DB pack up his aprtment and put it all in storage before he left for basic and he jsuit lived at his dads house after basic and before he went to his duty station.
but he'll call you when he gets a chance. just hang in there girl

Thank you all so very much. He called today. I was in a business meeting and I about died when my phone rang and I was on the 28th floor with barely any reception! I ran out and my signal faded...then he called back when I got downstairs! I was SO HAPPY to hear from him....I wish this would all be over so I can squeeze him again! I have decided I am going to make a chain link out of construction paper. Every week he is gone I am going to take off a link so I can watch the time go by....It may sound dumb and corny, but maybe it won't feel so bad if I have something physical to see that time is going by...I would do it by day...but I don't have enough paper! You ladies are all so great...thank you for everything!:grin:
