Sorry you're having a bad day. Is there a movie you can put on or make yourself leave the house and go walk around the mall? It's not too great outside. It's not going to cheer you up much, but at least it'll get you going and out of the bad feelings.
I know what you're going through. I have two deployments behind me and husband who is now traveling at all times it seems. Some days I literally let the kids be and do nothing around the house and then I play catch up. Hang in there. It's going to pass...You're almost there. The last few months are the worst because you're really counting down, but it's only few more months. I'm assuming you have the big chunk out of the way. Hang in there. I'm sending you lots and lots of hugs. |

| I'm sorry things are not going well today. Try to keep yourself occupied so your thoughts don't drift to sadness. Take a walk, do some chores, run some errands or go out somewhere like the mall as PP suggested. Things will get better, promise! Enjoy the rest of this weekend. |

| I haven't experienced this, so can't know what you are going through - but I just said a prayer for you and your husband. |

Give yourself a list of things you plan to accomplish while your husband is away. Painting the house, repairing appliances, building closet organizers, reading the books you never took seriously in high school but which you should know, etc. Make it hard, make it challenging, and look at it as a "must do" list. It honestly will help you pass the time and feel like you are on the path to when your husband returns.
Good luck, and thanks to your hubby from me! |

Yes, this. Thank you. I have tears in my eyes thinking of a real person missing her husband. It's hard to imagine and thank you. |

| Can you Skype him? I did this with DH's last deployment and it was much easier than the ones where I couldn't contact him at all. DS used to think that daddy lived in the computer! |

Where are all the people asking OP to suck it up because it was his choice?
OP, my heart aches for you and I pray to God to bring him back to you! |

That was the case with us, but we only used skype when he was available (he only skyped us and not the other way around). And my kids also thought their daddy lived in a computer. They would knock on the monitor and say daddy? daddy? Just thinking about you OP. I hope your day got better. You got only few more months to go. You can do it. |

OP, you still there? How did your day go? Is today looking better?
And a huge thank-you to all military families. We civilians do appreciate the sacrifices your whole family makes. |
