Instead of being like, "ohh geez, John doesn't get back for another 6 months, what a long time." Instead you'll be like, "I'm so excited, my sister gets here in only 3 weeks." This helped me alot and it made it seem to go by so much faster. Well, along with working 12 hour shifts in the navy with a 1 year old. I hope this helps someone!
Ya, I've planned a few things. I'm going to visit my family in about 2 weeks. The hard thing for me though is I don't work, so I don't get out of the house much! I've tried planning a few things for me 2 do during his trip. I am trying to look forward to those but the first few days I like to feel sorry for myself! haha!
