So, God must have heard my cry. Shortly after my last blog, my husband appears to have done a 180*. And not to just make it up to me. No. It's gone on too long to be short lived. He has been attending this Men's Fraternity thing at church about succeeding at home and at work and he is learning about a woman's needs. He is coming along beautifully. Everything from helping around the house to having deep intimate conversations to amazing yes. ;)
I do hope that only you read these Chelsee. :)
I finished watching all of the sex and the city episodes tonight. I have fallen in love with that show! Too bad it's over. I saw the movie first and then watched the show. But it left me thinking. I as a believer know what life is all about. God. It's about living our lives in honor to Him. That's what we are told and that is what we know to be true. However, what about all the aspects of living that happens around us that we miss or that we don't pay attention to b/c we're trying so hard to live for the Lord.
Now, I don't want this to come off wrong. I LOVE Jesus! And i love living for HIm. I just have a thought. Let's not miss out on life. The life that God has given to us to enjoy. Living is supposed to be fullfilling. Full of spontaneaity. Relationships. Adventure. Mishaps. Laughter. Love.
I want all of that. Not just some. All. I want deep meaningful relationships with a few girlfriends that last a lifetime. I want to travel and see and do new and exciting things. I want to laugh at myself and have others laugh along with me. I want to be able to have fun when the embaressing happens and have someone to share it with. I want girls nights out to chat and share about our daily happenings. I want to be married and be around my husband who loves me just the way I am. I have all of these things listed above, but not in the quantity or quality that I would hope for.
My friends are all at least half way across the country which keeps any of us from meeting more than once a year, if we're lucky. As a matter of fact, it has been over 2 years for some of them! I want all of us girls to live in one spot. For our husbands to actually meet eachother and get along. For us to all meet up for coffee or dessert. To have someone to share married life with, future babies with, trials with, secrets with. I want my husband to be around more than 7-9 months of the year. I want him around for the full 12!
I have a husband and he is phenomenal! But I miss him a lot too. Chelsee, I don't know how you do it, with your man being in the military. Gosh, you must get lonely. I do and I've been doing this for almost 3 years now.
I know one thing. I'm looking forward to winter. When the travelling stops and things slow down. At least for a few months. I miss him. I sometimes go days without speaking a word until he calls me for a blissful 10 minute conversation.
Oh, and have I mentioned I'm completely pmsing? :)

You are just too precious!! I love how you are able to completely feel whatever emotion it is that you are feeling in the moment. I'm tickled pink that Mark is showing some improvement... that's all a girl could hope for! A man who shows improvement. HA! :)
I totally get the feeling of wishing friends were all in the same corner of your life. Trust me. I totally get that one. Living on Okinawa is amazing! and lonely. The girls that I've met there are 100% different than I am and not in a "we can still get along kind of way". I'm craving girl time!!
And the whole "missing your husband" and getting an effing 10 minute conversation every 3 or 5 or 7 days is heart wrenching! The pain of loving someone so much is missing them when they are around. That's why I flew across the world (back to the US) to be with my sweets. Anything for the joy when we're together, ya know! I miss you lady!! And by the way-- You looked smokin hot at your brother's wedding!!
