One thing I can say for sure is that my sister was destined ti be here with me. Like I've said before, the years melted away as if they didnn't exist.
Now, the only job my husband may be able to take, will whisk him away for months at time. I will hate it. I will hate it like I hated it when he was a commercial fisherman. It was always as though something would go wrong the minute he walked out the door. The water went out and stopped. I didn't have any wood to heat the house.My car broke down. I've ha had floods in the hallway and the list goes on.
I'm not looking forward to his leaving. If he gets the job he wants (and there's no way he won't) he willl be gone for months at a time. But I figure, I was in my 20's at the time and I handled it. Now I'm in my 40's, it shouldn't be so bad. Plus, I've got my girls, my daughter and my sister to help in case of emergency. And, of course, there's always 9-1-1 for the big stuff.
That's what I'm facing as he sleeps next to me, snoring and not a care in the world. I know he'l worried about me being alone. Daughter will move out and sister will move out eventually.
Then again, he want's to add to his contract at least 5 round trips a year. Perhaps, I could use one for Mardi Gras!!! Fingers crossed. |

We forget sometimes how much men do for us, don't we?
My husband keeps the world together for me.
He sometimes travels as well, but now that my son is 18, he takes me with him.
He was in Texas for a whole month, and I did not even feel like putting makeup on or doing my hair, I had no one to look pretty for.
I feel for you friend.
Truly I do.
At least you have someone there to keep you company.
