Tonight is the first night I’ve gone to the grocery store alone in almost 5 months. I order online, it’s always been easier with 2 kids to just get it delivered. Tonight, the kids are with grandma, and I’m getting groceries in the store, by myself, it feels like the first time I’ve finally had a minute to just breathe and think. As I’m walking down the isles I realize my life has been so crazy and so hectic the past 2 months that I haven’t had time to even think about missing you. I keep walking and start thinking about all the things I used to but you, I walk my peanuts and go back because I know how much you love those. I start walking by the meals we used to get, thins we used to buy and eat together, now I’m getting single frozen meals for myself because I’m typically to busy at night to make a good meal anymore. It’s crazy how much your life is changing and things are going on around you and you don’t even realize it because you’ve been too busy focusing on your children’s lives you forget to have one.
God damn I miss my husband, and right now I could really use him.
