Everyday Life

It's been a while since I've posted. I've been really busy with school and taking care of my family. I attend NYU on a full time basis and work part-time as a student worker at my college. I barely have time for myself anymore, let alone anybody else. The one relationship that has suffered is my relationship with my significant other. He's been doing a lot of OT and since I'm at school three nights a week and Saturday morning, our schedules have taken a toll on our relationship. This is the first time that I really realized that it is hard work trying to make a relationship last. I wonder how people that have long distance relationships manage? My partner is just a borough away from me, (I live in Manhattan, he's in the Bronx), but it seems like he's a thousand miles away. I do miss him but I realize that I do have a life outside of him and the kids. But it would be nice just to get away for the weekend - just the two of us. It has been a long time since we've spend time alone just being with each other. Oh, well! He'll just have to wait until this semester is finished because I am doing me now!
