Almost.....

[ladysprite]

In about 24 hours, my husband will be here.

This is a very, very, very good thing, because at this point I have used up every single solitary ounce of cope that I had stored in my system.

There's no one thing I can point to exactly as a problem, and no blatant reason for me to feel so utterly worn out and used up. I'm not working any harder here than I would anywhere else; I'm not doing much of anything. But I'm tired, and lonely, and homesick, and out of my element, and I've run through every trick for dealing with it that I can think of, and I ran out somewhere yesterday.

Today was very long. Tomorrow will be even longer. And then I will have my sweetie here, and for a couple of days the world will be all right again.

And he is very special for joining you in the deep, dark backwoods. Have a good T'giving, and soak up all the togetherness you can while he is there.

Also remember when it get bad, we are only a phone call away.

Have a happy reunion. I get the idea you're being nibbled by ducks.

I'm glad Arnis will be there soon... and I hope you're not down on yourself for feeling worn out. Everything is different, you're far from home, and while the work isn't *harder*, it's new, and you have to adjust.

I wish I was a couple thousand miles closer when things like this were happening... I miss living in the same town as you.

Homesickness adds an entirely different level of stress to your not-unstressful profession. I've had way too much experience with that. But, you will be home soon!
