joined at the hip

As of last night I am starting to seriously miss my husband! I am really trying to have a great attitude along with the I-can- do-it mentality. I don't want him to feel guilty for leaving, and think this is not something I support. Last night I started thinking about how much my life is connected to Jason's. My Mom said to me while talking on the phone "honey you are joined at the hip and really in tune with each other. You always have been that way." Jason's mom has said in the past we become "kind of weird" and "insecure" when we are apart. Maybe last night and this morning I am feeling myself morph into that bizzarro self. All I know is that when one becomes this deep and entwined with another the idea of not having them seems like a loss of oneself.
Over the last couple of weekends while Jason and I worked in the church building separately people would come up to me asking if I knew where Jason was, or wanted me to solve a problem in his department. Several people got a little upset when I would say, "I don't know. He is in the building somewhere." I was thinking, "Go find him yourself… Do you think I am his keeper?" When I said something to Jason he said the same thing was happening to him (only asking for me of course).
Today I think that all of those people sense what my Mom said to be true. We are joined at the hip. Funny, my left hip has hurt for the last few days. Coincidence? Hmm!!
Anyway, enough of the boo-hooing. Jason if you are viewing cyber-space from Brazil please know how much I love you! I hope you are having the time of your life, and although the girls and I miss you terribly, we are doing great.
