Easter Weekend, and Coping with the DIstance

It is Easter weekend, and I work tomorrow, and Sunday. I have a feeling that it is going to be busy at my job tomorrow. On Sunday, however, it will probably be slow. It is always slow on Easter. I am hoping that the store will close earlier than 10pm on Easter, but I doubt it. Oh, one can only dream.

So, now it has been a full week since I came back from England. I still find it kind of hard to cope with the distance after coming back. I was so used to the routine that my husband and I had over in England. We would get up, have breakfast if either of us was hungry, then talk about what to do for the day. The day would either consist of shopping for bits and pieces, tidying the house a bit, or just relaxing. I loved our routine, and loved how we planned together. Now, rather than ask what "we" have planned for the day, I ask him what he has planned for the day. It is a bit harder to talk to one another, since he is five hours ahead of me. By the time I come from work, he is already in bed sleeping. The best way to spend time together is on my days off. Luckily, I do have Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday off, so we do at least have three days to do things together. I know that we are going to watch Black Sails, and Vikings together. After all, that it what we watched while I was in England. Other than that, we will probably Skype, and play our own games while chatting.

I love skyping with my husband, because I love hearing his voice. It brings me a sense of comfort, and familiarity to me, when I hear his voice, or see him on the web cam. The only things that sucks is that we cannot keep the cams going for long, because it makes our games run slower. Then again, when we are gaming, we do not really need the cams on. However, it is nice to see his face, and to see his cat.

I hope that these months fly by fast. I cannot wait to see him for Christmas, and New Years. I love him so much.

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 ...
