I miss you!

This week was Nick's first trip away from home for work and BOY do I miss him! Before I begin this post, I should tell you a few things about myself -

1. I love my husband and enjoy spending each day with him....

2. I get scared easily when home by myself in the evenings

3. I despise sleeping by myself in my house - in fact I haven't done it since I've been married!

4. I strongly dislike airplanes.

5. I am petrified, horrified, scared to death of storms.

6. The "T" word (ya know the one that describes funnel like clouds) makes me dizzy and makes me want to faint! ;(

7. When I have something to look forward to (in this case my husband returning home) I really begin to anticipate it and if plans change, I have a hard time dealing with it... :(


So- Nick left Monday morning....(I teared up as he pulled out of the driveway). Then I did okay - A. Lynn spent the night Monday night with us, then I left for Bear Lake with my bible study girls. We returned Wednesday night and I was anticipating Nick's return at 9:00pm. Here is where the story gets interesting...or depressing.... ;)

Nick's flight from Greensboro was delayed 2 hours...This caused him to miss his connection by like 5 minutes or less! Ugh! So here he is....stuck in the airport with no flights out the rest of the evening. And here I am...

1. Missing my husband

2. Home by myself at 8:30pm

3. Knowing that he won't be home by bedtime

4. In comes a storm.....with "T" watch....Oh! Wait! It has been upgraded to a WARNING!

YIKES! Let's just say the night did NOT go how I would have planned it!

All is well now, my mother-in-law spent the night with me and the "T" never arrived.

But - guess what time his flight is today!


5:00 PM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT!??!?!

*sigh* I suppose I'll be patient. At lease I'm not sitting in an airport for the next 7 hours!

I miss you honey ~ can't wait to see you tonight!

Thought of you last night Jess and wondered if Nick made it home...especially with the storms! Glad you made it through the night okay and the storms weren't as bad as we thought! I'm sure you're all ready to have Nick home!!

Glad to be home safe and sound. Thanks for the prayers, honey. The 11 of us definately had some fun adventures being stuck in the Detroit airport for 4 hours. Let's just say, I will probably try to avoid flying Delta if at all possible from now on.
