One Lucky Girl

First day without my husband

Posted by: dg1978 on: July 17, 2008

My husband left to St.Petersburg early this morning before 7AM for his 3 days and 2 nights business trip. Last year, he asked me to go with him to similar event (in Celebration (Orlando), FL) and it was so much fun. We traveled together and did so many fun stuff there together. We even had the time to spend extra 2 nights at nearby small town called Mt.Dora to do antiquing. It was SOOOO much fun. This year, because of my crazy new work schedule, I cannot even take 2 days off to go with him.  I hate my job. I don’t like my boss either. He treats everyone like little kids. He does not trust anyone. He sets unreasonable goals for us. He thinks he is the best thing in the world. He needs a punch in the face. I really don’t like him. And you know what, I am not the only one who feels that way. I don’t understand why someone finds an enjoyment in making other people’s work life as living hell. That’s pretty much what he does. I am sure my boss would enjoy to hear how suffering we are all at work. I just cannot believe how blind he is. Is he not looking at everyone at work? Does he not realized how miserable we look at work? Does he not realized how miserable we are? I have several breakdowns at home and at work. My heart is burning with desire to leave my job.

Oh I miss my husband so much. He called earlier before 5PM.  He finished with today’s class and he was walking on the beach when he called me. The hotel where he is staying at is right on the beach. I told him today was extra boring without him here. Everything seemed so  bland without him. He told me that the company is having dinner at 6PM. So right now, he is having dinner with everyone from his company.

Today, I went to Cracker Barrel in hope to find some good sales (at their shop) and I saw Fall season’s decorations already. I couldn’t help but smile. I love Fall and Winter season; Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I love Halloween. Growing up in a different country, we didn’t have Halloween, so I enjoy so much the tradition of giving candies to little kids. I enjoy the time my husband and I spend together one night going to the grocery store to pick several bags candies. I always suggest that we give those kids healthy snacks but my husband always asks me not to do that. He asked me, do you want little kids to throw rotten apples and tomatoes at our house? Ok I get it. LOL. I love giving out candies. We always have tons of candies. Last year, I had the time to actually made 40 goodie bags for little kids. Of course, they were all gone in an hour. But we had bags of extra candies. I think last year we ended our Halloween night around 9.30PM. Some of our neighbors ended their evening earlier. This year, I want to decorate the house again!!!!  I am going to buy bags and bags of candies!!! Fun.

Thanksgiving this year is going to be quiet. My husband’s grandma is moving to New Jersey this October. Usually we spend Thanksgiving at her house. But this year, I think we’re going to have to spend it just the two of us at our house. Or usually, my best friend’s family is always inviting us to every holiday celebration gathering at her house. If she invites us again this year, I’d cook something special to bring to the dinner gathering.

Christmas this year I am not sure what we are going to do. I love Christmas. I want to plan it from now but yet at the same time, I want to keep it open. I want this special holiday to be extra special. It’s my favorite time of the year!!!
