Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder--Right?

I think most people get married with the assumption that they will see their "significant other" more after they get married than before. Well, I am not sure this is a true assumption at all--especially once you have kids. This is how a typical day goes in our house:
7am--Anita gets up, gets Jordan ready for school

7:30am--Mike gets up, gets ready, takes Jordan to school, goes to work

8am-6pm--Mike works, Anita works

6pm (usually)--Mike gets home, eats dinner

6:15pm--Anita leaves for the gym

8:00pm--Anita gets home from gym

8:15pm--Mike leaves for either hockey, basketball, or volleyball

10:30pm--Anita goes to bed

10:35pm--Mike gets home

12am-2am--Mike goes to bed sometime in there


The weekends are a lot better--when Mike doesn't have to work. But listen to what these next few weeks have in store for us:


Wednesday 3/12--Mike leaves for Canada (to renew his passport) & China

Friday 3/14--Anita leaves for Canada

Saturday 3/15--Mike leaves Canada for China, Anita arrives in Canada (just missing each other)

Friday 3/21--Mike arrives home in California (Anita is still in Canada)

Sunday 3/30--Anita arrives in California, Mike leaves California for Vegas (just missing each other again)

Thursday 4/3--Together Again--hopefully!


Together in Hawaii

Maybe you should try to stay up 5 minutes later (i.e., until 10:35) so you can at least say hi :)

Lisa--I sometimes do that, but then I end up staying up WAY too late talking.
