My wife has been in Cyprus for the last two weeks now, visiting her family. I thought it would be nice to have the house to myself for a few weeks...to be able to watch what I want on TV, to be able to sleep an entire night without having someone invade my side of the bed, to eat when and what I want...you know, to rule the house.
But the short of it is that I'm pathetic. I miss her terribly. I miss all those things I usually complain about. It has gotten so bad that I saved the message she left on my phone, just so I can listen to it every day to hear the sound of her voice. I guess it's true, I'm really only half a person when she's gone.
Maybe I'll try to have a new appreciation for what she means to my life. Maybe I'll try to be nicer to her, complain less, and snuggle more. Maybe this break is just what I needed to wise up and realize what a great and blessed thing I have.
I love you, Sweetie!
