My life...

The last few months have been absolutely wonderful. I have had the rare opportunity of having Chris off the road and mostly home.  Life has been, by my definition, "normal".  I hadn't really given much thought to this fact until recently. I guess because it has been a while since he has had to leave. We have settled into a routine of sorts. But, last week I had the opportunity to drop him off to meet the band bus here in Birmingham. As I drove away, the familiar feeling of "I'm alone" returned. Though he was only going to be gone for a day I became very aware that tour season is about to be in full swing. I'm not complaining. I knew when I married Chris that he was a touring musician. It thrills me that he loves what he does for a living. So many of us are trapped in jobs that we hate. But, very soon, I will be relying on dear friends and family to be there when he cannot. Luckily, I have some pretty fantastic friends and family. It helps tremendously to live in the community where we both grew up. We have a great support system. So, to my friends reading this....be prepared! You're about to be back on speed dial. Just remember that you love me! :)
