Part-time wife

Because we own two homes with two mortgages, and because I haven't found a job within 30 miles of San Francisco, my husband and I only have spent Friday night through early Tuesday morning together for the last few weeks. Although some of the people I work with have told me they wish they had my situation, I can't say it's ideal. It's like I'm leading two lives: Friday night to Tuesday morning, I'm a married housewife in the big city, and Tuesday morning to Friday night, I'm a working girl with her love 80 miles away--same as I was this time last year. In some ways, it is nice to sort of "ease in" to married life this way, but it also seems like it's making it a longer transition. It's hard to adjust to new surroundings when the surroundings go back and forth between old ones. I trust that God has a plan for us and this experience will help us grow together...for better or worse

Enjoying wedding gifts
