My new fellow has gone bear hunting in Alaska. It is the first time and the longest time we have been apart since last November. In the quiet I have pondered our relationship and I have missed my husband more since he died 11 years ago. Perhaps out in the wilderness and the quiet of his tree my friend is doing the same and missing his wife who has been gone 3 years. We have enjoyed meals out and excursions around the area. Constantly on the move, now I have enjoyed the quiet time alone and the ability to catch up on my reading, television and computer. Not sure what to expect on his return.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. -- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

I am glad that you are enjoying some quiet time - and hope that his return is good for both of you.
