Day 1: I Will Survive

For those of you that don't know, here's the short and sweet story of Michael's departure:

Michael's company ran out of work for him to do.  Since he is still an hourly contract worker, they were not obligated to keep paying him if they didn't have work.  He missed a total of 6 days of work and pay, which is around $1200 before taxes.  Well, they found some work for him, but it's in Minnesota.  While he hates the idea of traveling and being away from me, especially with the baby on the way, we need the money.  So he will be gone the next week for training in Minnesota.  He will then trade off 2 weeks shifts with another guy from Wichita.  Please pray.

Now that the back story is out of the way....  I thought I did pretty good today, not crying at all as I left for work, knowing I wouldn't see my amazing hubby again for 5 long days.  I will be staying very busy between school and the jewelry store this week.  And by the time I have a moment to relax and think about missing him, he will be home.  :)  Can't wait! 

My anthem for the day:  I Will Survive!  :D

Miss you, Honey.  :)
