Feeling weird

Well, my guy left for TX last night and it felt so weird sleeping by myself last night. It was strange waking up and him not being there.  I love it when we sleep in and we cuddle and I can kiss the back of his neck. I know he's a 30-year-old man, but when he sleeps he reminds me of a peaceful, 5-year-old boy. Guess he looks so innocent and naive.  In real life, not so much, ha ha.

Anyway, it's going to be a looong 18 days apart.  We've never been apart for more than a week so this is going to be hard.  I know I need to learn to occupy myself again like I did when I was single.  It's hard though when you really like someone and look forward to seeing them everyday.

He brings a lot of happiness to my life and I truly enjoy being with him. We have our times of small tiff/miscommunication that lasts all of a few moments and then we kiss and make up...I love it when we realize what idiots we're being and how much we care about each other and don't like seeing each other upset.

He did call me several times already today so that makes me feel better. He's also been sick with a bad head cold this past week so I worry about him not getting enough sleep and eating healthy so he gets better. I know he's a grown man but I guess it's just that nuturing instinct that gets the best of me and I just want to take care of him and help him get better faster. He took it as me being a little smothering/controlling but most of what I did this past week was suggest things, like taking more medicine or moving to the bedroom for a long nap, or something.

Anyhoo, it's going to be interesting to see how much I'm missing him in the next week. I've made it a week before.  But two and a half weeks is going to be a challenge.  I can make it, I can do it! Just need to be "good" and keep myself out of trouble ;)
