So glad that I didn't make things worse - it's hard when you are new and the temptation to say wise things is huge - if you get it wrong however, you risk alienation and we all have quite enough of that right now!
With S on the road, you once again need to draw on faith and know that he has made that journey before so yes, he will be fine. You will be able to breath more easily when he is home though, I understand that. Just keep picturing how wonderful it will be having him there with you - and for all those cuddles!
The wine is most definitely a good idea! Not too many though, OK? You have a big day ahead and, although it makes us feel good for the here and now, alcohol is a depressant, so keep that in mind (oh, I'm such a kill-joy today)!
I just laughed at myself for being like a caged lion - I'm back and forth my emails and checking for new posts ... back and forth, back and forth ... how unhealthy is that? What a sad-sack that this is all my life is. I'm so envious of you folk who have family and friends around you ... I'm not going to give in and go back to the UK but how I wish that I just had some company - I'm sure that this would be a little easier on me then
