The light at the end of the tunnel

Without Duke I'm just the cookie part of an ice-cream sandwich.

I'm just the kite string.

Without him I feel a little like act two of "Into the Woods."

He is R2D2 and I am C3Po. As nerdy as that is. Actually I'm pretty sure he's C3Po. He knows everything. He is cautious. And he sort-of walks like him. But that is not what I meant to write about.

I know when I leave for Oregon, I will be with the boys. And my mom and dad. And my brothers and sisters. But the thought of 4 months without my love is making my tummy hurt.

I better enjoy the time I have left.

I'm going to go find him and smooch him. Right now.

School will end. He'll come to me. We'll have our baby and give said child a name. And then we're going to write a new list of goals and start to work again.

Yikes. I said I was going to go find and smooch him. And I haven't yet!

No time like the present.

Happy Tuesday to you.
