My Broken Heart Can’t Shoot
Mark and Boa 5 days before he left. Before then, Mark hadn’t been separated from Boa for more than a couple hours.
It’s over half a year into project 365 and I can’t believe I’m still going! Okay, to be fair, I missed about two months right before, during and after our move to Texas in March. I had intended to keep up with the project during that time, but Mark left Georgia three weeks before we did and I was heartbroken without him. We’d been together for ten years and not apart more than a week during all that time. It was depressing to be in my home, seeing my kids not be able to hug him or smile at him. Not being able to see him interact with them. I wasn’t expecting to miss that. I knew I would miss Mark and I knew Mark would miss the kids. I had no idea I would get into such a funk because I couldn’t see them together.
I’d taken photos every day faithfully up to and including the day he left. It’s not surprising my only photo on our last day together was of food. I made the four of us French Toast Waffles in the morning (which are the exact same thing as regular french toast, but pressed in a waffle maker). It turned out a bit hard because the bread I used was too thin.
