well we had a great visit with my dear good friend Ashley here. We went out and did a lot of fun stuff. The kids had a great time. It was so much fun and a big help.
I took her to airport on Friday night as I was driving home the kids were asleep and I was thinking to myself about the last few weeks. I get in these moods were I feel like I just have to get through the day. Then it hit me I have to do this for three years. The in and out of him being gone. I have started the weekend off with trying to just accept this is how things are. I am going to still do things that me and the kids enjoy. I kept thinking oh another week down which is true but then when I get to him coming home I will have to start another countdown after he leaves. So why build and build things up? Does that make sense?
So it is Sunday night I have a new perspective on things. You know the usual drink less diet coke in the week. Stop rewarding myself with chocolate. But then I think my kids are doing so good considering the change. I need to embrace that keep on doing what I am doing. Keep my spirits up. Get out there and do fun things. Enjoy this time with the kids. Don't look at it as oh poor me home with the three kids.
While i am writing about good things. I have received a few emails from David. What a great thing. It is nice to have a place that I can email to . Whether he gets them or not that is a different story. It makes me fee better to know that I can at least write to say hi. I am hoping to actually talk to him on the phone in a few weeks. I cant wait.
