People amaze me with their kind words towards my husbands deployment. Truly, they do, but I always feel like a Debbie downer when I tell people my husband just left for a year. They go from looking seemingly happy to heartbroken instantly. And by the end of it I'm trying to comfort them and let them know all is well and were gonna be ok! Stay strong my friends! To prevent this happening in the future I've decided to make up stories as to why my husband isn't around. These are just a few.
- He's actually a rapper named snicka and is on tour for the next year.
- He went to prison for being a drug dealer.
- Turns out he was an escapee from Idaho, back on the run!
- He's returning his mail order bride back to Russia and its a lengthy process.
- He signed a one year contract with Chippendales and is out shaking it in Las Vegas.
- He is a professional mushroom hunter (not the ones that make you trip!) and he's on a business trip.
- He has been abducted, the ransom note was too demanding. I'm convinced they will return him after spending enough time with him.
- He is Victoria Secrets new angel and the runway calls.
I think people's reactions will be much more pleasant with a story like these, don't you? I can't take all the credit for these ideas. My good friend Biz helped me out.
Thanks Biz! |
And since the world didn't end, I should probably start buying Christmas presents. Sorry about that family, you'll be receiving our gifts late, seeing that tomorrow is Christmas Eve!
Ahhhh! Look at that, time is moving a little quicker than I thought!
Merry Christmas! |
