I had a shitty week last week - my dad had a very unexpected heartattack (he is on the mend now thank goodness) and then I got the news that I knew was coming eventually, just didnt expect it right then and there.......my boyfriend is being sent overseas with work for 8 months early next year. Not the end of the world, no - but a pretty swift kick in the teeth! Thinking about 8 months (or closer to 9.5 by the time we allow for training and leave etc) without him SUCKS so I am coming up with lots of creative ways to keep myself amused and to channel my frustration and sadness at being away from him. And this is one of the places it has lead me!
I know it's not going to change the world, it's not going to end the war, it's not even going to mean an endless supply of Peeptoe's (http://www.peeptoeshoes.com.au/ - check it out, uh-mazing shoes!!) - and I may very well be the ONLY person to ever read it - but I am ok with that.
He is the one person I tell all the irrelevant little details about my day to, He is the one person I ask stupid questions because I know he won't laugh at me for being a goose. . . . . . . . I might just save up all the irrelevant details here, and ask all of the stupid questions here so he can maybe read this one day and answer them all when he is home safe!
We have 3, maybe 4 months together before he leaves though - so there will be lots of laughs and lots of fun times for me to share before I turn into an angry bitter woman :)
See, look - I feel better already!
