missing DH

I'm going nuts, I haven't seen DH since May 15th, and I can't talk to him either...he's away for training with the Army in California for another 2 weeks.

What do you girls do when DH is away, other than keeping yourself super busy, which I'm trying to do. My problem is that I keeping thinking about him, wondering what he's doing and I have trouble paying attention to other things. I wish I could talk to him! I wrote him a couple of letters, but I know he can't write me back. I should be used to this, since we were long distance for all of college and till we got married, but after living together and getting used to seeing him everyday, this is so much harder than i thought.

Sorry, just needed to vent!

catch up with old friends that you may not have had as much time with when you got married and started living together! call up girlfriends for a nite out....or even have a wine & cheese party for friends at your place.

maybe find some projects at home that might need to be done....painting a room....cleaning out a closet......grabbing old clothes together and donating them to charity.

if you have family close by---you can hang with them and help out around the house or something. have any nieces and nephews nearby? taking them to a park or something can be fun this time of year.

its tough--but if you keep busy and try and focus on the positive, you can make it thru it

That must be really hard. I was away from dh for six weeks back when we were dating but I was still able to talk to him.

Start doing things you never have time for. I did the things I always said I needed to do such as setting up a gym schedule and keeping it, cleaning out closets, arranging my didgital pics and ordering copies.

I hope the next 2 weeks go by quickly for you .

sorry hope the next 2 weeks go by fast for you. When DH is away I try and do things I don't get to do when he is home as much. Girls weekends stuff like that!

Hope you feel better soon!!

Re: missing DH

thats horrible you can't talk to him. Id feel the saem way as you if I was in your position. Why can't he call you? Is he not allowed contact with anyone?

Re: missing DH

aww. I 'm sorry. I can't imagine how hard this is for you. Try to keep your mind occupied by going to the movies, go shopping for things to decorate your home, maybe take a weekend class in cooking or knitting.

sorry to crash---but my DH is stationed in Iraq right now and I havent heard from him in a little while and before that he was stationed in Japan. So I know what you are going through it su cks.

hang in there....just try to hang out with friends on the weekends and keep your mind off of him being away. right now i have school/work/and trying to plan this wedding so my mind is definitely occupied. but at times it is very very hard with him away especialyl now that he is in a danger zone.

you will get through it....it does go fast as well, it may not seem like it but it does.

definitely go out on the weekends with friends, go fro walks, to the park, beach, shopping, dinners and movies, or bars anything with friends. also spend some time with your family if you dont already do that. they are my biggest supporters while DH is away!
