Am I the only one who thinks Time stops the closer we get??

So, my hubby is coming home in 8 days. He is scheduled to be released on March 18th!! He called me this morning from his counselor's office to make sure I knew where to pick him up from. He said they will transport him from his jail to county early that morning, and his Parole officer will pick him up from there. I guess I am supposed to pick him up from the parole office around 9 am that morning. But, for the past two weeks, time has been going slower than usual. I feel like everything is on a standstill...I feel like I've been counting forever. This is going to be the longest 8 days of my life. Does anyone else feel like the days have gotten longer? It seems like my anxiety is worsening more and more everyday. I guess I just have to be patient!

Girl, I am right there along with you on that!! My husband comes home on the 16th. And I am counting the days, I got excited thinking it was 5 days left this morning then realized no today is Wednesday, so 6 days lol.. of course I'm excited as ever but yes it sure is dragging.. he called me the other day and said he isn't calm unless he talks to me. I guess he too is bouncing off the walls and says it is dragging on. I'm just trying to get through this week.. well to Saturday, Sunday I will be busy all day cleaning and getting ready! Monday I have a few things to do, and my daughter has school. Then I will take her to my moms and I'm driving up to the prison which is 2 hours away, staying the night.. now I know that night (monday) will be the longest ever!!!!!!!!
I pray your time waiting goes quickly.. keep yourself busy!

The only time time slows down for me is when i dont get my phone calls....i'm just a nutty little cake on these days.

I think i might have problems sleeping once we're as close as u two are. GOOD LUCK! AND CONGRATS!!!

I'm having the hardest time sleeping! I've been going to bed super late, and waking up at 3-4-5 a.m.! Gesh.. and Monday night I know I am not going to be sleeping much at all!

OMG tell me about it, time is going slow.. and i dont know if hes definately out the 19th.. because he will be on parole and had to submit homeplan so everything has to be approved with that, so its not official until the day which is so annoying i just wanna know! I love him so much, im dieing to be with him again.
