Today has been a day.. A busy busy day.. Somehow all day, all i could think about is how miserable I am.. I Hate being alone.. I hate knowing I am coming home to an empty house.. I hate having no one to cook for.. I hate being the only caretaker of the dogs.. I have having to rely on myself to do everything.. I hate that I can't just be a wife.. I have to be both.. I have to be the man of the house and fix anything that breaks.. take out the trash.. shovel the driveway.. take the cars in.. clean the whole house..
I am having a day of self pity.. all I want to do is roll up in a ball and cry.. cry.. cry.. I want to cry til its all better, and this deployment is over.. but that wont do anything but make me feel more miserable.. Each night i go to sleep.. alone.. and just lay there thinking.. "another day down".. Forcing myself to get up in the morning.. All I do is go through the motions of life everyday.
I no longer smile just because I'm happy.. I don't want to do anything, because that means I have to go alone.. I have to force myself to smile.. Fact is, I am not happy. On the inside I am raging mad I have to go through this again, I am so broken because the love of my life is thousands of miles away and I can't do anything about it. Crying won't make him come home.. feeling sorry for myself won't make him come home. He can't do anything with how I feel.. I don't get to hear him say I am beautiful everyday.. I don't have him to wrap his arms around me and tell me everything is going to be okay. I have no one to cuddle with when I need it. I have no one to hug me like the way he does. I have no one to goof off with and be silly around. I have no one to go out to eat with.
It seems no one understand what I am going through.. The husband and I's birthdays are coming up.. and yet another year he will be gone for those.. I have to be without him for thanksgiving, Christmas and even our anniversary. I just can't seen to catch a break. I just want him home, I don't care about anything else. I NEED him.. He is my everything. I am so heart broken.
You get so used to talking to your husband everyday.. day in and day out.. suddenly its taken away from you , and there is nothing you can do about it. You can't fight it, you just have to accept it and move on. Knowing that each day you survive is one day closer to seeing his face again.. knowing you made it one more day.. One day at a time.. one day at a time will be a month at a time.. til i see him again..
I miss the silly things like holding hands, getting a text, looking at him across the room, the goodbye kiss in the morning, the randomness and his handsome face! So many things I miss.. I just love him with all my heart and it seems no one understands. I just want to sleep all day and drown my sorrows in tears and sleep..
Going through the motions til I see his face and feel his embrace!
