Light at the End of the Tunnel

Just as we were recovering from David's last trip to CA, he found himself having to go back.  It sucks.  I find myself looking at this picture a lot:

Thank you again Angela for the super awesome mega rad viking hats!

David made me a yummy batch of soup that I have been feasting on this week.  He's taking care of me even from CA.  I'm thankful that this trip is not the full week.  Two more sleeps and I'll have my sweetie home with me.  

Puppy would like me to stop taking pictures of her

I got to visit with my sister and the kiddos today.  They always cheer me up when I'm missing David.  W and peanut are growing up so fast, and it's been great getting to reconnect with my sister and get to know the amazing person she has become.  I have to remember I owe them a chicken finger feast.  I hate it when good chicken takes a dark turn.  It was just meant to be one of those days.

Tomorrow will be better-oh wait, except for the dentist...

Work helps the time go by.  We have both been busy at least.  Tomorrow I get to have another cavity filled, so David will get some nice numb-face pictures tomorrow.  They are kind of funny after the fact. I will be curling up with Puppy, and a Sookie Stackhouse book and waiting for my sweetheart to come home.  Two more sleeps...

...and then we'll have this to look forward to!

One More Night

Thankfully this bout of crappy sleeping should come to an end tomorrow.  David gets to hop on a plane and come home tomorrow and I am SO FREAKING EXCITED (that I had to use caps lock).  I am ready for hugs and head bites.  Thankfully I've had some distractions to help the time go by.  Work has been busy, I had a lovely visit with my sister and W and Peanut, I had a dentist appointment today, there were two hockey games to watch, I've done some cleaning, and the cat has been mostly sweet.  Still, there has been something missing, and that is going to be all better when I get home tomorrow.

Have I mentioned how excited I am?

One Sleep Down...

Three more to go.  Yesterday was a really frustrating, depressing day.  Today was kind of just a side step. I didn't get much sleep, so I have been fighting a headache off and on all day.  I came home and did some cleaning, and now I'm feeling a little under the weather.  Maybe I'll get to bed before 1am.  If not, I definitely need to ramp up the coffee tomorrow.  On a positive note, the work computer is working.  Our computer guy came in and made it better.  Tomorrow I should be able to crank out a bunch of stuff.  Yay.

On a much fluffier note... here is a silly picture of puppy:

She's been very cute and uncharacteristically sweet.  Right now she is curled up right in the middle of David's chair snoring.  Sorry David, both your ladies snore. :(  But puppy is really really really cute when she does! 

Despite being a little depressed, and feeling a little run down (and really really missing my husband) I think this is going to be a good year.  I can't wait to see what is going to happen.  And best of all I get to to it all with my best friend.  Three more sleeps sweetie, two by the time your read this!

The Monday that Sucked

Any day my David gets on a plane and flies away from me pretty much sucks.  Today was just a big ol ball of suck.  David had to fly away for four sleeps.  The cat and I spent part of the morning meowing at the door and wandering around as if looking for something.  Then at work today, my work computer decided it did not want to play nice.  All but one of the programs I need to use at work decided it wasn't going to work anymore.  My web browser wouldn't open, Word wouldn't load, and Adobe wasn't playing with anyone.  So I felt like a waste of depressed space today.  One can only hope tomorrow I will get some help from our computer guy.  I know tomorrow means only three sleeps until I get to hug my sweetie again.  For now, it's just me and the cat.  She's currently sitting in David's chair taking a bath.  I think I'm going to go curl up in bed and watch an episode (or three) of True Blood.
