How Many Days to Go?

[RedHeadWife]

Ok, guys & gals, let's play a game here. Let's pretend Red is a clueless newbie 'cuz that's how I feel right now.

I still can't get out of this funk I've been in since H left again (went back to Korea until May) and I need some ideas or even some 2 x 4's

I have gotten out of the house -- I went out w/ some friends this past weekend to dinner & a movie. This Friday, I'm going out again b/c one of my friends is moving away. I even went & had a root canal yesterday!

I feel, though, that this depression or whatever it is is now affecting my R w/ H. We haven't seemed to have had the chance to talk as much on the phone since he's gone back, but even when we do, I feel really disconnected from him. I certainly don't want to backslide on my M/R when we are/were doing so well.

I know the time is going to go by fast. It just doesn't seem like it is yet. We have 100 days to go, well 99 today I think.

I have work (yeah ) and lots of extracurricular activities w/ my oldest S8 -- Scouts & basketball right now. We pretty much have something going every night of the week and this weekend we have basketball pics, a game & the ultimate Pinewood Derby races That's very stressful too though having to do all of that plus keep track of S's 2 & 3 at the same time, but luckily mom & dad came back (they went out of town for a couple of weeks) and they help out a lot. In fact dad is going to be my "taxi" Friday night

Anyway, I just need SOMETHING to jump start me out of this blah that I'm in. I guess part of me knows I need to just "fake it 'til I make it," but I haven't even been able to get myself to do that.

Any ideas? Thanks all!
