Billy is still gone!

Okay, now this is getting serious. My husband has been gone for 6 days now, and I really miss him. He is set to return on Thursday night.

I miss so many things about him:

* His smile
* His smell
* His stories
* His affection
* The way he listens to me
* Week-end morning coffee
* How happy the pooch is to see him
* The anticipation of him coming home from work
* A million little things

I don't miss:

* His snoring
* The alarm clock

I know that needed and deserved this vacation, and I truly hope that he had the greatest time. I also hope that he is looking forward to coming home. I'm sure he misses me and the pooch, cooking, our bed, and more.

2 more days, and he'll be here! Luckily he won't have to work until Monday, so we'll have a nice long week-end together!

It is amazing the little things that you miss when your spouse is away. Things that you would normally take for granted or not even take notice of beyond the little smile that it gives you in the moment. There are things about Barry that I missed when he was recently away for 3 days, I can just imagine double that. or the first couple of days you could busy yourself, but there comes a point that you just want them to come home, though you aren't angry with them and wouldn't dare demand that they return early, it would just be better if they were around.
