6 days and counting.

Here I sit lonely and missing my family. One good note I go home in 6 days. I miss them so much. Everyone looks like theyve changed so much. I cant wait to get home and snuggle with everyone and kiss them good night.

Just wish they'd make up they're mind

So at first I was the only one that wanted to stay last week.  Then everyone got me excited cause they said they'll stay.   Now all of them are gonna back out.  Boo boo. Ill be here all alone.  Unless I go.  I miss my family.  I know they miss me

Asked to stay

So I was asked to extend my stay two more weeks. Apparently they love us that much. On one hand its 150 percent than normal income. Bad part is im away from the family.  I miss them. Not like depressed missing them but if they said go home I wouldnt be upset.

Done with counting

So today started out great until lunch. I was asked to say an additional 2 weeks. The pay is great but it would be an addition two weeks away from my family.   I was already to tell them no, and tell my wife told me to go ahead. Then I made my mind say no but she told me to say yeah. I just wish I could make up my own mind and not be so indecisive. And one hand the money is great, but on the other hand I miss my family. And my only defense mechanism how to make sure that no one else is having fun I'm gone.

They say the first week is the hardest... I say so. Now I just need to dig in and get these next two weeks over with. so that the last week is downhill. I don't know whether I'm smart or stupid for asking If they need me to stay.

Today is rough. I slept ok but apparently I
Was rude last night. Im sorry.  I miss my family. Ive still got 3 weeks left. I dont know how people do this. I hate being away from them.

Day 4 in the books

Day 3 done

Last night/this am was thhe hardest thing ive done. I worked 6am to 430pm then stayed up and left ks at 10pm to drive back to Missouri to pick uo a co worker flying in. We got in at 430am then went back to work. I lasted till 10am and had to head back to the hotel and get sleep.  I feel way better now I got a couple hrs sleep.
Missing my babys bday today. Sucks but at least I know m9mma will make him feel special

So its easier the more days you go.  Im just getting together a care box to send home to the fam bam. I sure do miss them. Hangout is really cool. At least I can see them. Need sleep. We traveled 12 hrs sunday. Then got up at 6 am to work 10 hrs. Now a co workers flight got delayed and no one wants to go get him. Im too nice sometimes. Ill be dead tired tmrw. Oh well.

Our view

Day 1

Day 1 of being away. So far im ok. It was emotionally hard to say g9odbye without crying.  We've been thru a lot in the past few months thats brought my family closer to me. I wish life was easy as pie, but it never is. I love my family. And I love god.
