Last year Jill decided to follow her dreams and become a teacher. In order for this to happen she had to go back to school to get her Masters in Special Education and her Teaching Certificate. Keep in mind that she said from the moment she graduated with her Bachelors that you could not pay her a million dollars to go back:) So obviously this is something that she REALLY wanted. Part of her program requires her to live on campus for a month to take 12 hours worth of college credits. Which is a super deal, but the college she is attending is a couple hours away! She definitely wants to come home on the weekends, but what will I do without her during the week! We do everything together when we are not working and end the day falling asleep together every night. The house will seem so empty without my better half here singing with her IPOD, working out in the yard together, going on bike rides around the neighborhood, or just running around town visiting friends and family. When we first decided she should go ahead and go this summer, I knew it was coming but told her she would be okay and so would I, but now it is becoming a real reality and boy I don't want her to go!!! However, we ARE going to get pregnant next month so we didn't want her to be gone when we had a brand new baby. So we were trying to think ahead and be smart to prepare for our future and to get her to go. She would put it off forever if she could:) Now we are planning things to do to keep us busy while we are apart. She decided to take her golf clubs, pick up some new books, and ofcourse work on classwork. While I am at home obsessing over the TWW, going to doctor appointments, and all the baby making stuff. Besides the baby stuff I am planning on reading some books (went to library today), going to the pool with friends (we joined a local pool with a wave pool-fun), taking some sewing classes (I went to the Singer store to get a schedule), and I am taking a night class too for my Rank I. So it sounds like we will be pretty busy, but my sweetie still won't be here so I will be missing her every second!!!! I know, I know- yucky mushy stuff! BUT she isn't just my partner she is my best friend and enjoy having her around to hang out with. I do realize that we will get through this and time will go by quickly AND I will welcome her back home with a BFP!!!!!
Okay enough- thanks for letting me get this out! I am so glad I have friends in Blogland that will listen and understand. Love you gals!!!

That's not whining! I wouldn't want to be away from K for that long either. You girls are doing what you have to do for the future of your family, and I think that's admirable. Good luck getting through the next couple of months.

I understand and you can vent here anytime! I know it will be tough, but it will all be worth it in the long run!!! Just remember that...
There's nothing wrong with feeling mushy and needy or whatever!
Lois and I spent 3 years doing the weekend thing while I was 3 hours away at law school. It was hard on me, but it was harder on her since I was very occupied with school work.
Hopefully a month will just fly by! It just stinks. I TOTALLY understand what you are feeling!
I'm a card-carrying member of WOA is me... Whiners of America. Welcome to the club! Joking. I'd be whining too, but sounds like a good game plan! k
