It is the Little Things that Count

I like it when my husband and I Skype together. Our Skype time is like our time to chat, be funny, and trying to be close and affectionate when we are about 3000 or so miles apart from each other. I like the little things he does on there that makes me feel happy, and loved. He can usually make me smile whenever he cracks a joke, or sings.

I like it when V sings. I kind of wish he would do it a bit more often. Do not get me wrong, he does sing... but it is usually parody songs to make me laugh. For example, he would take the melody of any well known song, and make up his own lyrics. He is quite good at making up funny, sometimes dirty songs up!

I like it when he sings songs from musicals, like Les Miserables, or The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I can tell that he really likes musicals. He will even sing some Disney songs, from time to time. He does not sing these songs that often (maybe he does sing songs from Les Mis a bit more than songs from other musicals), but when he does, I appreciate it, and love listening to him.

I also like it when we play games together, such as Lord of the Rings Online, or Saints Row the Third. I wish he would play a bit more of LOTRO with me. It is still pretty fun playing it solo, but I kind of miss him there questing with me. Doing it solo can get boring after a while! Maybe I'll ask him if he can buy the Riders of Rohan expansion, and catch up to my level. I would love to try mounted combat with him. That would be a blast.

So, I guess this post was about the little things he does that makes me happy, when we are long distance. God, I am so lucky to have this man in my life. Before I wrap this up, I will ask a question. What little things does your significant other do to make you happy?

Laying In Bed

You know, sometimes laying in bed alone has me thinking about my LDR with V. I think about how much I miss him, and how I wish I could have him lying right beside me, holding me and kissing me on the neck. Laying in bed can sometimes feel like the loneliest time spent. At least when you're on skyping with your SO, and hearing his voice, or even just typing out messages, you do not feel so alone. Sometimes being apart in a LDR can suck. It is always a good thing to try to stay positive, however and that is what I am going to do. I am going to think about the good times we shared, when we were together. I am also going to think how we are going to be together again someday (hopefully in February.) The wait can be worth it. Once you see each other again, there is a tremendous amount of joy that fills your heart... A joy of seeing your beloved once again, reunited. You feel whole, and as one again. I yearn and ache for that feeling. I cannot wait to touch him, to feel his hair throu...

Merry Christmas... wait it is Boxing Day now!

It is funny how the holidays seem to fly by! Christmas this year was ok. I enjoyed watching my nephews opening up their presents, and the excitement in their expressive eyes as they unwrap their holiday surprise. I also loved the cookies that my mother bakes every year for Christmas. Her chocolate chip cookies are to die for! I just wish the husband was here to enjoy Christmas with me. It is weird not being with him during the holiday season, and I almost have a void inside my heart during this time of year. It can get especially troubling when seeing couples together on this special season, holding hands, and cuddling close to keep warm from the bitter cold as they walk down the street. Ah, no matter. At least there is hope of celebrating with him next year, and the year after that.  Speaking of which, I have to get his form started. I will start on that tomorrow, either before or after work. At least I've done all my research, although it never hurts to double, and tr...

Finally Changed My Last Name

Well, on Wednesday I went to the Social Security office to finally change my last name. I now feel like I am really his wife, and it feels great! Of course, we have been married for three years, and I felt like his wife then, but now, it feels more official in a way? Anyway, the card with my new last name should be arriving in two weeks. Then, I get to do the fun stuff, like notifying my work, bank, oh, and getting a new passport with the new last name. I think I am going to save the passport for last, since this year, I am in no rush to change it right away. Nope, there is not going to be any traveling to England from me, this year. Hopefully next year, when I travel to England, it will be for good. Work has been a bit more easy going for me, although I do wish that we closed at nine, instead of ten every day. I mean, sure, there is more time to prepare for closing, but I just do not like getting out at 11:00pm every night. It makes going to bed at a decent hour pretty difficult. I ...
