Well, Hubby has been home for a week and we've been having a wonderful time together. The day he came home, I received a phone call from him in Atlanta saying, "hi honey, I'm getting on a flight in a half hour, I'll see you in 3 hours." "Crap," I thought to myself. I just gotten myself out of bed and barely had the time to check my email and update my blog quickly. I hurried into the shower and scrambled to get ready in time to leave so I wouldn't be late. It was past rush hour, so I figured there wouldn't be a lot of traffic. Well, I was wrong. There is always traffic in Boston. By the time I got to the airport and through security, I had ten minutes before Hubby's flight was scheduled to arrive at the gate. It was a good thing I didn't get there any sooner. As soon as I arrived at the gate, my hands started to shake, my heart pounded so hard I felt like I could see it through my shirt. I tapped my feet on the ground, and patted my hands on my legs. I was so anxious and restless and impatient. Finally, the plane arrived and I stood directly in front of the entryway. I saw Hubby with his sunglasses on and ran into his arms, I felt all the pairs on eyes fixated on us there. The ten months that had passed seemed to disappear and it felt like Hubby had never left in the first place.
Since I'm being honest, it did take a few days for me to get used to Hubby being home. I had to remember that we are an us not a me and you. After being independent for ten months, it was hard to have to build a schedule around a couple not just me. Call it selfish, but that's the way it was. I've never been good at dealing with change and this was just another example. Once we arrived in Charleston, everything was back to normal. We have been having a great time here and wish it would last forever. The thought of Hubby having to go back is so far removed from my thoughts right now, which is good, but I know that the day will sneak up on us all too quickly. So now, I am off to enjoy every last second I have with my Hubby. I'll post another update after he leaves.
