This weekend I’ve helped my sister move, helped my old roommate shop for her new house, driven my nephews back to Fort Knox, and packed for a trip I’m going on tomorrow. I have to be at the school at six in the morning, and I’ll be heading off to the Smokey Mountains with 82 seventh graders for three days of hiking. I am so tired right now that I can hardly think of tramping around on trails with a bunch of kids.
The really hard part of this is that this trip will be the longest that I’ve been away from Chris since we’ve been together. I know that many other women have to spend months and even years away from their spouses, so I can’t really compare. However, I am very sad. Even though I haven’t left, I miss him already.
For now, I need to double check my packing list and get ready for bed. I’ll be back on Wednesday night.
And of course the first thing that happens is that you got this horrible headache. I am so sorry honey and I know how miserable you must be laying in that cabin while everyone else is outside. I'll be there to get you tomorrow. I love you
