Traveling for work for nearly 3 weeks

This morning I left for Florida for 3 days, I get home Wednesday night and then I will be home for 4 days until I go to Topeka Kansas for 2 weeks.  I will be traveling with 4 other co-workers, so I won't be alone the whole time.  I haven't been away from DH for this long in about 5 years.  

I know several of you were in long distance relationships before your weddings.  Any tips on making the time go quickly?

Thanks. 

Married!!

Re: Traveling for work for nearly 3 weeks

  • I am not gone that long, but I am away 2 nights a week.  We talk on the nights when I am not home.  There is also Skype which is a great way to keep in touch.  When I am gone, I frequently send him "love texts" or emails as a way to flirt when I am gone.  He seems to appreciate them.
    my read shelf:
    Robin's book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)
  • I'm actually staying at my mom's this week taking care of my grandmother.  Although I'm only 5 minutes away, it feels like I'm AWAY. DH comes by with dinner and we text eachother.

    If we were really far apart we would also be using Skype video-having dinner together or watching something on t.v. together.   You may try and find some souvenirs or something specific to what he likes to bring him back you might not find by you. Writing a Letter or finding a unique postcard to send him.

    HTH, Safe travels!
