Even though DH's job is totally cool.....sometimes I hate it He has been working 24/7!!! Monday through Saturday from 9-midnight. I barely get to see him, we barely have spent much time together lately.

I feel bad for being a complainer about this, but DH has been complaining too. He's tired of being there at work all the time, he's tired of being away from me. He's tired of being in charge of everything that's breaking. He is getting sooooooo stressed out and I know that's not good for his swimmers. (So i'm a lil worried that this cycle won't be it either because of his high stress job lately.) We can't wait for this movie to be over. Have a month to go.

Sorry for complaining about this, but it stinks!!! I hope DH gets a new job soon, a job where he won't be worked M-S till midnight. Poor guy is so stressed and tired. When he gets home all he does is sleep and then morning comes and he leaves again. We get to spend maybe like an hour together everyday I miss him and just want to spend time with him. So we've been praying that he'll get one of the job he applied for out of 7 of the biggest studios around. Ones that worked on Titanic, Narnia, Harry Potter, etc.

I'd rather spend all the time in the world with DH than him making this extra OT money. THe money is not important to us, our marriage and love is. This just stinks.

Awww Im sorry Linds. Is it a matter of waiting to hear back from these other jobs? would any of them require a move is so?
I miss DF and I havent even left yet, I started crying today coz Im gonna miss him. Ive still got all day tomorrow with him and tomorrow night, then next Friday night and Saturday morning. i know I will be busy when Im away but I cant stop tearing up when I think of being away from DF.
Whats the movie Simon is working on at the mo?

I'm sorry Linds... I know how you feel and it just sucks. With Lacrosse season right now, DH and I can go days without seeing each other. He drives straight from work to his parents house (an hour away from ours) and does his thing there, then goes straight to work from his parent's house. If I don't go down with him, I don't see him at all. Needless to say with my O time approaching I've been making as many trips down to see him as possible. Even when we are in the same town, he's sleeping or working on Lacrosse plays and stuff. It's like even when they have a free minute, it's filled with sleep or something else!

I'm here for you if you need to vent- I know how you're feeling hon. I hope that this new job pans out for you guys and that you can get to see more of your DH. Sending you lots and lots of HUGS!

[LindsLuvsSi]

Yes Em it's a matter of waiting to hear back from the studios for a job. Sometimes it takes a week and others maybe 3 months! all these new jobs would require a move. Either 4.5 hours North, 3.5 hours South or across the world. 1 is in San Fran. 3 are in LA and 3 are in London, UK. (we'd prefer/want one of the London ones actually, I'd be close ot you then Em! We could hang out!) I don't know anyone here or in San Fran, or LA. I do know some people in London and DH's best friends there too. So that's why we want and hope London works out

He's currently working on Red Cliff. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425637/



Awww I'm sorry Cris that you understand how I'm feeling

[downunderchick]

OMG how kool would that be if you came to London!!!! Im about a 3 hourish train ride but we go there every so often, more the reason if we knew people there!.lol. Well lets hope he gets the London one then. just off to look at the movie link now....

[LindsLuvsSi]

It would be cool, I'd have people to hang with. 3 hour train isn't that bad at all!! I know Clare lives the opposite way. We all could get together, if we did move there. It'd be fun!! I hoping that London works out too. (free healthcare, friends and a better/awesome studio job for DH!) praying hard!!

I'm sorry Lindsey! I know how it feels to be away from your DH.. mine goes underwater and I have no contact except email... thank god he's on limited duty right now though

[downunderchick]

oops, i actually meant 2 hours so even better. lol I yeah that would be kool if we could all meet up, most of our school holidays are the same (with the exception of these ones, lol) so Clare and i would have time off around the same time. ooh wouldnt it be wierd if you did move here and all3 of us got pregnant around the same time B) lol Im letting my mind wander now coz im tired. its nearly 11pm here.

[LindsLuvsSi]

Awww sorry you know how i feel too April, it does stink

Awesome Em!! That would be soooooo cool!!!! Hope it happens (Don't worry I let my mind wander 24/7 too)

[ShannonMVT]

I'm sorry you aren't getting to spend any time with your Dh right now. That stinks.

Right now mine is at home having to do work all weekend. I know it's not as extreme as your Dh's job situation, but it definitely sucks when you can't spend quality time with your Dh!

[LindsLuvsSi]

Thanks Shannon. Sorry you can't spend time together either. Ya it sucks when you want to spend time with the man you love.

[cazza]

i hope he gets the other job so you can spend some time together

*huggles* I feel your pain. DH has been gone for a while now and I soo miss him. We thought this tour was going to give us more time together, not less. Hopefully he your DH will hear back on a new job soon Linds!

[LindsLuvsSi]

thanks ladies~

awww sorry Jenn I feel your pain/loneliness~

[Mum2three]

Awww, Lindsey!! We are all here for you!! I know what your going through. and i understand it all!!
You have us to make you smile when Simon isnt around..we can lift your spirits when your down..
your a good person!! I wish we all lived closer together so we can eat ice cream and drink coffee..hehe..

Im thinking about you!!

[Clare]

I've just read through the thread and you and Em made me laugh so much planning our little get together!

I totally understand how you feel about missing our other halves because they work long hours. Tim used to work ridiculous hours as well and then when he was home, he continued to work. Since his company restructured it has got slightly better, he is home now each evening about 7 (before it used to be after 10pm) He doesn't work from home anymore so we get to spend more time together. I think my constant nagging helped a little! The only problem is now he has a Blackberry he can get his work emails easily. I have to admit that i often hide his Blackberry so he cant check them.

Im sure things will get better in time Lindsey and hopefully he will get the job that he wants.

I do have one question Lindsey - how are you finding the time to BD????

[LindsLuvsSi]

Thanks Brandy!! That would be perfectly awesome!!! I love ya girls!!! You all rock!!! Thanks for cheering me up and being there for me when DH is away.

Glad you liked our planning Clare! Well we haven't been BD much lately, just once a week basically. Hopefully near O time this cycle we'll get more in.

I'm sorry hun, I know how you feel...DH is in the navy like April's and goes underwater, and the only way we can communitcate is occasionally through e-mail and he's leaving again soon I hope your DH gets the job you guys want!
