My eyes are sore from tears... Bob calls this morning after being gone since March 13, says that he is going directly to Minnesota from Michigan to work another outage. This means another 4-6 weeks gone. I am sick of being alone.
My friends at work are great. They love me and are always encouraging me to stay working there forever. They don't want me to quit. I am not trying to brag here, I am just relaying to you that they always say how well I do with the kids and that I am a great teacher. Yes, it is an ego boost to me. I love to nuture the kids. Some of the kids come from such harsh home lives. It breaks my heart all the time. I love going to work and just being there if a 3 or 4 or 5 year old needs to talk. I think I see about 10 'owies' a day there. They want someone to care that they have owies. It's so cute. And I do care.
I'm not trying to whine here. I just miss my husband. I feel so excluded from him right now. There are so many things that need to be done right now around here. Plus look for homes. Can't do that apart. This is not what God wants for christian, married people. Jobs that are states apart. One of them gone for months at a time. I am not doing well with this. Please keep us in your prayers. Pray I can continue to do all the home stuff by myself. I don't want to!! 38 days without a husband. At least 30 something more. Yuck.
On a happy note our little Pilgrim puppy is on the Animal Planet web site . It is under brag book pictures. I am so proud of the little guy. I am glad I have him at least. Til next time....Ciao
