First day...and I'm lonely!

[Marilyn]

No, you're not. This is going to sound so silly, but I used to climb a tree so I'd have a better view of my hubby's truck coming when I was waiting for him to come home from work. This goes way back to when we'd been married maybe 4 years. I just couldn't wait for him to get home. Before we had a yard with a big tree in front, we lived in a mobile home, and I'd stand on the 2x4 porch railing.

Now we both call each other when we are on our way home and if one runs a little later than we think they should we are calling. I can't tell you how many times hubby has called me just as I'm turning into the neighborhood or pulling into the driveway. Sorry, but even after almost 35 years, you can still feel the separation and long for their return.
