Djibouti

That's where my husband is headed....for 34 days.  At least it's a fun word to say...Djibouti.

He's headed there for work, and got the Yellow Fever shot and all.  He came home a couple of weeks ago saying that he might have the chance to go, but it wasn't until he sent me his itinerary today that it actually hit me.  He often travels for a week or two at a time, but it's always been in the states...and it's never been for quite this long.  He leaves Monday, so this is our last weekend together for a while.  We'll make it through it, but please pray for us as we're apart...and I wouldn't mind some prayers for distractions and projects to make the time pass quickly.

I was blessed today with the chance to leave work early today.  It's been a long week, so it was so nice to come home and just relax on the couch and watch last night's "The Office" episode...yes, it was Jim and Pam's wedding...too cute!

  1. Laura, hope you enjoy a wonderful weekend with your hubby -- 34 days is a LONG time away from each other -- you will be in my prayers during this time, that you will find a new hobby, new love, and to focus on yourself :)pack in a lot of dinners with friends, re watch some favourite movies, and pick a room to re-decorate!

  2. My hubby goes away for 3-4 weeks quite a bit and I hate hate hate it!! I'll be praying that you have some distractions and it doesn't feel like he's gone too long. And as annoying and sad as it is, seeing him once he gets home is always so sweet!
