I blew it!!! I broke down ...

[RenegadesGirl]

Hello Ladies. Well, I blew it. I tried so hard but I broke down. DBF is scheduled to come home for my birthday but now he may not. He's been stuck in Denver because he lost his jakes. His truck was back and forth in the shop because they just couldn't get it right. They told him today that it may be the ENC unit and if it is, they supposedly have the part in stock and could have him back on the road tomorrow. And if it isn't the ENC unit then it might be another part which they don't have in stock and it won't be til Tuesday that they can get it and have him back on the road. He's put in for time off starting the 25th. Long story short .. I got upset at the situation which I know is out of his control and started crying which made him feel bad because he had plans for my birthday. I couldn't help it because I am so frustrated. This companyvhas done nothing but screw him over!!!!!

I'm sorry :( I can understand. Its happened to Dh as well and it sucks every time. I hope they can get him.moving in time for him to be home.

Im sorry hope he's up and going again soon

[CraizeeMomma]

Oh that sucks! I seem to remember though, most times he thinks he won't make it, and then he usually does make it in the end. Hang in there and don't let it get to you until it's a sure thing.

It's tough! We all understand. This last year DH missed his bday, mine, our anniversary and a few holidays. He will be missing ours sons birthday party this weekend (turning 3).
You just have to celebrate stuff on other days sometimes.
Sorry!

When we know my Hubby isn't going to make it home for certain special days, we just make it a point to have them when he is home.
I realize it's hard, and hurts when your DBF can't be home when you were looking forward to it, but remember he's working hard, and wants to be there as much or more than you want him there. Breaking down isn't a bad thing, just let him know it's because you love him. Let him know how much you appreciate him, and the hard work he does.
I've learned that this life isn't for the thin skinned, but we are only human. I cry at night, alone. I dream about my Husband, sometimes every night. Our boys know a few days after he leaves, that I'm edgy, and we all talk about it. It takes a toll on all of us. But I also realize I couldn't live a 9-5 life with him. It's what keeps us going. I love the anticipation when I know he's on his way. We've also learned that anything can happen, so we roll with it.
I hope you have a good B-Day, if he's not home, then spend time with friends, or family, and then make a special time when he is finally home.

Thanks, Ladies. I just feel bad because I made him feel bad. His plans were to get his motorcycle license again so he can take me for a ride on our new Harley. Then he was gonna take me to my favorite place, Joe's Ceabshack and then some other things. Because of what happened, he won't be able to do that now. He felt bad. But at l work But at least now his truck is finally fixed and he will be home for my birthday now.

I know that feeling all too well, I cant remember the last time DH was home for my birthday or our anniversary or most holidays. They realize our emotions too, I am sure he understands.

Glad he will be able to be home now

Hang in there. Praying he will get home soon
