Thank you all so incredibly much for your support

Yes, 6 months. A very LONG and hard 6 months. She is taking care of a relative who is sick. To protect her privacy I really can't say where she is exactly or what is going on, but that's just about the jist of it. I know a lot more but she's asked me to not let on. So yah, she has decided she HAS to get home--there's some stuff going on here that she's just absolutely got to take care of that she's put off for 6 months.

So she sent me an email saying "See you soon" in the subject line and I thought I read it wrong!

And I agree, lets all go pick her up at the airport, so she doesn't have the chance to get away again.

She will probably need a week or two or whatever to get her own family/ house stuff sorted out before she has time to see me, I would imagine... I cannot imagine how much in just MAIL and junk there is to take care of after being away from home for 6 months. But j ust knowing she is home where she BELONGS!!! will be helpful.

And you are right, I can hang in for 10 days... I survived 6 months... BARELY...but I am surviving. Man I hope it goes by quickly though. It already feels like forever.
