A day in the life of an Ohioan turned New Yorker
for now

As I mentioned in a few previous blogs, my fiance is now in NY getting his Doctorate, while for three months I will be here in Ohio student teaching, and finishing up my two bachelors degrees. I know it's only been one day, but I feel lost. We've been in eachother's hip pockets for the past three years..for the most part...sometimes he would go on tour with the Tommy Dorsey ORchestra for a few weeks, but it seemed like those weeks flew by. Right now, although we are closer than we've ever been, I just feel so alone. I have no idea how I'm going to survive three months of not being able to see him before I fall asleep and as I wake up.

This sounds pathetic, but I need to let it out somehow...I did too much crying at the airport yesterday morning at 5:30.

I understand how you feel. The first time I was away from my husband was when he was in boot camp, about 2 1/2 months, and then more recently in Korea for a year. Neither time was fun, but I got through them, and you will too.

Good luck in the meantime.
