Away on travel

It has been a long while since I last wrote, mostly because I have been preparing to travel for work.  It is the first time I am having to be away from my little man and I do not like it.  Not one bit.

I have never liked to be away from my husband.  I look forward to curling up with him at night from the second we climb out of bed in the morning.  I love our talks at the dinner table and I live for his hugs, kisses, and smiles.  When I can make him laugh my world opens wider.  Add to that the distance from my son and, well, I am feeling pretty sad.

I am in a great city and have a really exciting day ahead of me tomorrow.  I am meeting a college friend for what should be a good dinner (on the company's dime).  I am in one heckuva luxurious hotel room.  These are great things.  BUT, the coolest city, the most exciting day, a tasty mean, and a comfy bed (and huge bathtub) do not make up for the comfort my family provides.

I won't stay away so long from now on.  The biggest positive to all of this is that I know I won't have to travel again for a good long while.  The job just does not require it.
