View Full Version : Deep Breath.....My countdown begins
timmysgirl79 09-17-2004, 07:51 AM :eek: OMG I can hardly believe it. My baby will be home in 30 days!! I thought we would never get to this point, but these last 30 days are going to kill me with anticipation.Not to mention everything I have to do in such a short time. He has to live in his own place while he goes through treatment on the outside and I rented the othere side of my double. I have been slowly getting it ready but now I have to work overtime to get it done. It is only half painted,theres border to hang, carpet to clean, furniture to move in, knick knacks to put up, pictures to hang, linnens to buy, utilities to turn on,food to buy,clothes to wash and fold and put away,plus plan for his first day home. I will never get it all done in time. I think I may just hyperventilate.
I may not survive the stress of all this but at least he will be home. I am so excited that my husabnd is coming home and wanted to share it. Thanks for listening and for all of your support.
Now I just have to get busy..... :eek: :eek: :D
*Johnny's Angel* 09-17-2004, 08:14 AM Congrads timmysgirl!!
HotLatinaMILF4U 09-17-2004, 12:32 PM Congratulations!!! Let me give you some advice: get some rest, drink plenty of fluids, take your vitamins, don't forget to take care of yourself, the internal stress got to me and I ended up feverish and sick the day he came home, of course it was still a wonderful day but if I can save one person the trouble then I'm gonna keep on reminding you ladies with a man coming home soon to take care of yourselves!!!
All the best,
Patty

Awww that is so sweet. It is going to be wonderful even if you dont get everything done like you want. I think you are very lucky that you were able to get him into a place next door to yours.
MsChiku 09-18-2004, 07:00 PM (((TimmysGirl79))) This is awesome news in 30 days your Boo will be right next door to you...can it get it get any better? I'm praying that God grants the energy & faith to get down what needs to be done. Let the counting begin! Congrats :D :thumbsup:
Congrats and ENJOY!!!!!!!!!! I'm sorry he can't just live with you, but hey next door is the next best thing.... I'm glad it worked out this way at least til he can move on over to the other side (grin).... I hope the next couple of weeks fly by for you both...

timmysgirl79 09-20-2004, 09:17 AM Thanks to all of you for your prayers and encouragement. I was able to get the painting done next door this weekend; finally. But now I have to get the carpet cleaned and start getting little things taken care of like furniture and trying to make it as homey as possible. I just can't wait for him to be home. We have our LAST visit this Sunday and then I get to pick him up 2 wks later. I am just bouncing with excitement!!

Patty
timmysgirl79 09-22-2004, 10:31 AM LOL... I better not get sick before he gets home. That would be awful. We are gonna try to have another baby right away and being sick would definately take the fun out of it.
Anyone have any good ideas for a real nice first dinner I can pepare for his first night home? I have been trying to come up with something but I just can't. HELP!
timmysgirl79 09-25-2004, 07:02 PM Okay girls, this is it. Our LAST visit is tomorrow. Only 10 hrs and I will be visiting that awful prison for the last time. The next time I see him it will be on the outside of that compound and in my arms for good. Wish me luck tomorrow, I will need it not to fall apart. :)
Manzanita 09-25-2004, 07:03 PM I wish you both a lot of luck and love!
timmysgirl79 09-27-2004, 08:51 PM Well the visit went great and I cried when I left. But the next time I see him it will be to bring him home. I was able to get next door together a little bit yesterday when I got home and the carpets get done tomorrow. Then I just have to get his stuff over there and do a little shopping. 2wks and 6 days and he will be home. I got to talk to him tonight, he called because it was my birthday.I just can't believe that his time is almost up.It seems to good to be true. I am so happy. :)
timmysgirl79 10-04-2004, 10:23 AM For those who are interested.. I was able to get the house done. It's totally ready for him.But Guess what?? I'm sick. I have a real bad cold on top of a sinus infection. He will be home in 13 days and I am sick. I always have trouble kicking these nasty little bugs too. I'm blaming the rapid weather change here. It went from in the 60's at night to the 30's and I hate to turn my heat on before November. Oh well, if I am sick he can take care of me and pamper me for awhile.:)
13 MORE DAYS!!!
MissOne 10-04-2004, 02:13 PM awww i hope you feel better soon. PATTY said :) take your vitamins and take care of yourself. Were you not listening? ROFLMAO
J/K honey. Your man takaing care of you is a GREAT silver lining.

timmysgirl79 10-04-2004, 09:32 PM I was listening LOL I just don't usually take vitamins. I guess I better start though. At this rate I'll be bed ridden by the time he gets home and I definately don't want...or do I? :)
