12.) Someone (besides the dog) to cuddle up to at night~

I can relate to a lot of those reasons on your list. Happy TT.

my hubby goes on out-of-town trips lasting for three days sometimes, and i sure can relate to some of the things on your list.
happy TT

Sounds like you miss him a lot when he is out on duty…

Aww. What a sweetie. And I totally agree about men who cook — not to mention that Fresh From the Shower smell. Yum!
Happy TT!

My DH was in the Army for 5 years so I can totally relate to this list! Hope yours comes home safe and sound soon
June 27th, 2007 at 7:45 pm
(((HUGS))) to you Toni.
June 27th, 2007 at 7:55 pm
I hope he returns to you soonly. I can only imagine how hard it must be at times. Beautiful list, and happy TT!

Aw jeez — it’s amazing how the little everyday things go unnoticed when they ARE around. You just made me appreciate my work-from-home-always-around-and-under-my-feet hubby all the more. Thanks for opening my eyes (and giving me chuckle with #13!)
June 27th, 2007 at 8:14 pm
great list….I wonder if I could limit it to just 13!
thanks for visiting
June 27th, 2007 at 8:19 pm
Never had to experience a long-term separation, but I know his week-long business trips just leave me exhausted and wishing he’d come home.
June 27th, 2007 at 8:20 pm
Hee hee, what a cute list! He sounds like a great hubs.
And ohhhh, back scratching!!
Happy TT, and thanks for visiting my blog!
June 27th, 2007 at 8:41 pm
I know I am not the hubs (and after #13, I don’t want to be) but I told you I would cook you a mean steak on the grill. Just come on over!
June 27th, 2007 at 9:03 pm
You definitely miss the hubs
Happy T13!
June 27th, 2007 at 11:19 pm
I’ll bet you could write a ton more too. How long is he gone for?
June 27th, 2007 at 11:45 pm
Your post made me realize that I sometimes forget to thank my husband for his assistance around the house. Sounds like you really miss him . . . how long until he’s home?
June 27th, 2007 at 11:46 pm
Aww, that was wonderful.
Pillow talk and bom chicka wahwah
June 27th, 2007 at 11:57 pm
I can’t even imagine how hard a long separation must be. Even when my husband’s away on reserve duty (here in Israel) he’s generally home every few days. Now that he’s one of the oldest guys in his unit and has more clout in making the schedule (aging out next year - hurray!) I often see more of him when he’s in reserves than I do when he’s working.
Thank you to your family for your sacrifice, and I hope your husband comes home safe and sound very soon.

Looks like great wifey-minds are thinking alike this Thursday eve! Have a great one, oh, and thanks for putting that little ditty into my head: “Bow chanka bow bow”…
June 28th, 2007 at 12:56 am
June 28th, 2007 at 1:16 am
Aww! I’ve never been seperated from my hubby..at all. But I did love you #13 Now that little ditty will be in my head all night!
June 28th, 2007 at 5:51 am
I can see why you miss him so much. I pray he will be home soon, safe and sound. Then #13 can be a reality!!!!
Thanks for coming by my T13.
June 28th, 2007 at 6:11 am
Love my dog, but she sheds and my hussy does not.
June 28th, 2007 at 6:23 am
Awwwww! I hope you could get to spend some time with him very soon
Happy Thursday dear!
June 28th, 2007 at 7:05 am
My Hubby just got back from Japan ( he was there for a month) so I can relate.
Thanks for visiting my TT.
June 28th, 2007 at 7:16 am
I hope he comes home soon! He sounds like a great guy! Happy TT! :o)
June 28th, 2007 at 7:54 am
Safe return to Hubby!
June 28th, 2007 at 8:18 am
Aren’t you lucky with a hubby like that! Hope he returns soon, salute on being an Air Force Wife!
June 28th, 2007 at 8:29 am
No words here =( He sounds like a wonderful hubby!
June 28th, 2007 at 8:31 am
I use to smell my husbands clothes or get in his truck to smell is smell! I can so relate to everything on your list.
June 28th, 2007 at 9:13 am
Awww, that is so sweet, you should send it to him or read it to him when he returns ;).
June 28th, 2007 at 10:07 am
That must be so hard. And I bet he misses you just as much!
June 28th, 2007 at 10:13 am
{{{hugs}}} How long will he be gone?
That’s pretty similar to the things I miss about my husband when he’s on TDY or deployed, too. Ever notice how things like #2 never seem to need doing unless he’s gone??
June 28th, 2007 at 11:13 am
I hope he comes back soon! I love the fresh from the shower smell. Makes me all gooey. And my husband does most of the cooking in our house. I’m spoiled.
June 28th, 2007 at 11:47 am
#13 is the best….I agree, totally!
Hope he’s back soon. Hope this war is over soon so he won’t have to go back….
Happy TT!
Liked your list!
June 28th, 2007 at 11:48 am
Yep that’s a list I remember very well. Course right now I can list 13 things that tick me off about hubby. lol. That might be a fun thing. 13 things to do while he’s gone or something.
Happy TT!
(((HUGS)))
June 28th, 2007 at 11:55 am
I’d be missing my husband like crazy too, if he left for that long.
He’ll be home before you know it.
I love the way my husband’s cologne lingers down the hallway after him.
HUGS.

I’ve never had to be away from my hubby, but I would so miss him for most of those reasons too, especially #13. ;o)
Definitely a reminder of how much you both sacrifice for him to do what he’s doing.
xoxo
June 28th, 2007 at 12:46 pm
Oh man….this list brought tears! So sad to hear the times you miss! I love the fact that your hubby is supporting what he believes in tho….he should be commended and you should be so proud. I know you are!!
Thanks for the visit.
June 28th, 2007 at 12:53 pm
Great list, hope he returns to you soon! Happy TT!
June 28th, 2007 at 2:03 pm
Hope you get to experience all these things again VERY soon! Sweet list!
Happy TTing!
June 28th, 2007 at 3:02 pm
That’s a good list! And, thank you for sacraficing so much for all of us (spouses serve too!)
June 28th, 2007 at 3:31 pm
what a sweet list. And who doesnt miss the bow chicka bow bow? I miss the bow chicka bow bow sometimes
June 28th, 2007 at 8:04 pm
What a nice list. My hubby commuted cross country for 20 months, but at least he was home on the weekend, can imagine some parts of your life right now.
BTW, the ads below your post are really funny, in a sad, pathetic way. All about dating and men withdrawing…
June 28th, 2007 at 10:04 pm
Sounds like he’s a lucky fella. What a great list!
Thanks for visiting my goofy blog and making it through my first TT attempt.
June 29th, 2007 at 5:18 am
I was waiting for the last one all through the list! *lol* Now what does that say about me…?
Thanks for visiting my random TT!
June 30th, 2007 at 7:37 pm
There are just too many spots that are hard or impossible to scratch yourself.

Hey, I just wanted to come by and let you know I posted the answers to the TT13 - Have You Ever! ~Frigga
