Together again

Hi all, I hope everyone is doing well! So I posted way back -- I'm the one that has been separated from her med school hubby for such a long time... well I'm happy to say we are finally living together again in NY. It has been a crazy past couple of months. He was able to get all of his rotations lined up in NY so we can stay here a few years, and he moved out here about 2 months ago. I stayed at my accounting firm until the end of busy season, and made the move just a few days ago. The first day I was here I got really lucky and landed a job.

Josh is in his ICU rotation now, so that means he's hardly home. It's now really hard on me because I thought living with him I would actually get to "live with him"... but I'm finding that's not the case. I know once this rotation is over it will get better, but because I just moved here and don't have any friends here yet, I find it incredibly difficult. Plus it doesn't help that Josh rarely talks to me about his days... is that something I should be concerned about? I don't know if it's just because our communication was lacking while we were separated, and I hope it will get better over time and living together again, or if it's just a part of his personality that will never change. I also find it really challenging to not be offended by his crabbiness at times, and find myself snapping at him or getting upset. Are there any other wives out there that are super sensitive like me? How do you put your emotions aside and just be there to support your hubby?

Finals!!!!!

You all doing finals this week, or soon? Two more to go for dear hubby. Done after Wednesday's test. How are you all holding up? Just checking in!!! :)

Also, if you could keep us in your prayers, the hub and I are leaving on Thursday to go to Afghanistan on a medical mission trip through Christian Medical and Dental Association. We will be working in a clinic of some sort, and possibly their hospital, giving free medical care. We will be gone for two weeks, and our daughter is staying with grandparents.


Thanks!
