Tired of saying goodbye.
This morning was the third Monday in a row where I had to drive my beloved to work knowing that that would be the last time I would see him for that week. While I am handling it far better than I did the first week he was gone, I'm just tired of it. When he first took this assignment it was supposed to be for a week. Now it's starting to feel as if it will never end. For both of us. He hates it over there, hates being on the same job site for too long and hates being away from his family. We both just want to get back to our normal lives. To have both of us sleeping in our bed every night, not just on weekends, to eat real meals (he has no kitchen, I see no reason to cook without him) preferably together. To not have anymore tearful goodbyes. The time apart did us some good, allowed both of us to think and realize how much we really do love each other despite everything, but still.... enough is enough.
On happier notes, I'm getting a lot of work done on the wedding. My bouquet, that of my maid of honor, the table floral designs and 1/2 of the alter floral designs are done. All in artificial flowers of course. Cheaper, easier to work with, easier to get the colors I need and allows me to work ahead of time to try and downplay the stress just before the wedding. Now I just need to do the other half of the alter and the flower balls for the pavilion. Oh, and buitoneres and coursages for important type peoples.
Got the final bit of material needed for the dress and debating if I want to start it this week or not. I'm thinking this is the perfect oppurtunity to work on it with out him around but the thought of making it actually terrifies me for some reason. Maybe because the lace is so pretty and I'm afraid of ruining it. I also need to make/buy the aisle runner, the bows for the chairs, figure out where I'm getting the chairs and one more table, put in the final order for the cake, find/buy suits for Ed and his dad, locate all supplies like guest book, cake server, toasting glasses, etc.... and a never ending list. Plus get invites ready to go out which I might work on today since I have the office to myself.
As far as writing.. I didn't do anything over the weekend. Just spent time with Ed and worked on the wedding. Am about to go read the new 2YN assignment so that should get me going for this week though I must admit, wedding is probably going to take precedance for a while. I think even the most dedicated writers could understand that ;-)
