This week I am away from A for a whole week while I attend a leadership course and camping conference. It is one of those times where I have mixed emotions.
On one hand, I am super excited to be here. It allows me to connect with others in my position and find the support and advice that A cannot give me due to the uniqueness of my job. What I do, the stress I feel, and problems I face at work are something that only another person in my position can truly relate too. I am remembering that I am not the only person who struggles with the challenges ahead and that gives me a very comforting feeling. There is something about knowing you have a support group that can make the weight lift.
On the other hand, I hate being away from A. I miss talking about our day and climbing into bed with him. He provides security and comfort for me. When we are apart, something is missing.
I don't regret my decision to come and know that the week will fly by, but I will be so glad to return home at the end of the week to the comfort of home and the comfort of A.
