Anything But Gray

Ever since we left Alaska, getting to talk to Ceci is a treat. She is so incredibly busy that it is hard to find uninterrupted time to talk. I don't call her because she tends to get a little stressed out if she can't talk, at the moment. Or she feels bad…like if her and JR finally have a couple of hours together, alone and I call…she will either, talk to me and then lose time with JR or she will say that she is hanging with JR and can't talk and then feel bad for ditching me. LOL That's just the kind of woman she is….and I love that about her, so I'm not complaining! But because I know this about her, I leave the calling to her.  I hate doing that becuase I don't want her to ever think I don't think of her. This is when I really wish she had a facebook or myspace that she checked more frequently because then I could leave little messages to let her know I'm thinking of her. Aside from that, I don't want her always being the one making the effort to talk. We've talked about this and I know she understands why it works out better for her to be the one to call when she has a moment….but it still bothers me a little bit that she is always the one to call. 

We talked for a few minutes last week and because tax season is over and she is not as rushed and swamped at the office, she now has a couple hours of free time, on Tuesday nights. So we made a "date". When she got out of work, she was going to go home, make a drink and then call. I was so psyched!! I couldn't wait until Tuesday….

We got to talk for awhile and man, it was nice to have a long, uninterrupted phone call with her!! I loved it!!! And it reminded me of how much I miss her. So we made a plan….every Tuesday night will be our phone call night. I am so happy to have a plan, so happy to have that little bit of time to talk to her. I have felt so disconnected from her life because we hardly get to talk and so this little bit of time is so going to ease that!! 

I am just beyond happy and I already can't wait until next Tuesday!!! 🙂
