  • provoking thought. . .perhaps?

    hi everyone!



    i had a thought the other night. over the last week and a half, i have been at play rehearsal every night until midnight, 1am & aside from the late hours and the zillions of other things i need to work on, i have loved it.



    *usually* my hub to be calls every night and i am home "waiting by the phone" for him to call - (i'm usually busy but i'm still HERE) - well, when he couldn't reach me for two nights and i had to call after he was asleep, he left one message that was so sweet and one i would love to save forever. it said something like i really really miss you and hate it when i can't talk to you at night, etc. he usually says "i miss you" every night but this one was different.



    now you are asking, where is miss random thoughts going with this? it just affirmed for me the importance that i find a really fulfilling career and get "my own life" - so that he realizes, as he did then, that i am not "on call" for him (ooh, that came out wrong - i would do anything for him - ) but just to help him realize that .. i'm not sure how to word it.



    okay, enough random thoughts for the day!



    by the way, *sorry lynn* - i knew i was going to be wrong about some docs performing surgeries as family med doctors. all i meant was that it is extremely uncommon here. in fact, there is typically a huge rivalry between the surgeons and the internal/family med docs. sorry!!!!

        Hi Claudia!

        I'm not upset or offended by what you said...don't even give it a second thought!I don't know what all doctors do either.I can only speak for phill and just because he does surgery doesn't mean they all do.But he sews so good here does all the sewing at home too!

        Yes..i understand exactly what you mean about the phone call and having your you life and stuff.Phill and i had a long distance relationship for 2years and i know how hard that can be.I also saved special messages on the machine.I think your very right with all that you just posted and understand what your trying to say.

        I wanted to answer your post so you know this and to let you know i'll be leaving this site.Please know you can e-mail me anytime tho if you need to talk about long distance relationships or being engaged to a doctor.It was nice to meet you and i wish you the best of everything for the future.

              Claudia,



              This semester I bit off quite a bit more than I may be able to handle. I put my youngest in childcare (gasp!) and am working several days a week in the lab.........and I feel so HAPPY and content with myself....I really LOVE it. I have spent years at home as a SAHM and I enjoyed that too...but I feel suddenly so much stronger and in control of my life and my destiny....and my husband has noticed this as well. He has conflicted feelings because he is used to me being there to soley meet his and the children's needs...at the same time, I think that he is feeling proud of me....but I feel so fulfilled inside right now....
