Long Distance

I should be used to my long distance relationship right?
Wrong.

I hate it. I hate everything about it.  When I renamed our blog "tales of long distance newly-wed life" I didn't realize how much I would have to say about it. I thought that it would just be another period of time in our relationship that we weren't together... same old, same old. There is a huge different though. In the past, William and I dictated our time apart. Either we were choosing to be in different cities for school, or we were choosing not to see each other when we were in the same city.  Well I bet you can guess the difference now... We aren't choosing this.  We want to be together. NOW. We were always able to say "later, we will be together" or "it's just for a few years".  But let's face it... this is William's job now.  And they are NOT forgiving.  He gets days off only to keep up with his army obligations and if they weren't at risk of getting in serious trouble, they probably wouldn't let him off for that.

We really can't keep this up forever.  Hopefully we will find some other opportunities soon.
I miss him so much.

I feel for you two. I know this time is so hard. I can't imagine because even when Josh was gone for two years, I knew I would see him on the weekend. I will be praying for you two. Take care!
