My husband was sent to a trade show in Las Vegas and I am stuck home in podunk, Indiana. He has been gone two days now and I miss him so much! We have seldom been apart since we got married 20 years ago. It's like a big empty hole inside me but I am trying to keep busy. It's funny how we take someone for granted until they are gone......

Your partnerhip is just admirable.... 20 years and you still miss each other. I guess your partnership will last a long long time. Well what you can do today is really prepare for him when he comes back.

He's called a few times and seems to be having a lot of fun. He had to call from the desert and describe it all to me today! I think he's only been in a casino once since he's been there. I can't wait until he gets home tomorrow night! I'll be ready with a nice surprise for him....

Well, that means you have a strong marriage! That is only going to make you guys stronger. When he gets back, set up a surprise for him! It would sound really fun and he would wish he could go away more so he could come back to you!

Been married for two years but you say Vegas... mine went to TURKEY... TURKEY.. AHHH lol... he went for ten days granted it was a business trip but he and i never went anywhere like that together ((sigh))... First i was irritated because he is going on such a nice trip -- in all honesty he wanted to cancel since just about 2 weeks before his departure i miscarried... but i didn't want to feel guilty later on... or selfish so i encouraged him.. his 10 day stay turned into about a month and more.. after two weeks i told him i cant stay alone this long (i was really weak even after 4 weeks emotions played a huge role) i went and stayed with an aunt. Im glad he went since he got a change in environment... he might be also going on a all expense paid trip to France! Again im encouraging him but i told him im going to jordan while he enjoys his free ride Im not used to being alone and it is amusing how we take them for granted... hmm... well i guess sometimes we forget the good things that happen during our marriage when it seems the bad is winning at times!
