Update

So, last week was quite a crazy week. 

Joe left for Asheville, North Carolina on October 13th and didn't return until October 22nd. I will be the first to admit that I did not handle his time away very well.....

While he was away I had parent-teacher conferences. The week of conferences is very stressful and I went home LATE each night wishing that he was home to relax with. 

I am so lucky to have such great friends and family. I spent a lot of time at my mom's house.  

I have the best mom in the world!!! 

She made sure I wasn't missing Joe too much and had girl time. It was kinda nice to feel like a little kid again and have my Momma take care of me.

When I wasn't at my moms, Kelly came over to my house and stayed in the guest room. It was so kind of her to drop her life and come be my house guest! She is a great friend and I know I can always count on her. 

Oh.. and I can't forget about Cody! She also did a great job keeping me company.

 

After many tears and sleepless nights Joe came home! I was so glad and relieved to have him back. You really realize how much you need someone when they are not around. 

As this week began, I was elated to be back in a routine. My husband is home, my home feels warm, dinner is on the stove each night, and I am incredibly happy. 

Life is good... :)
