I miss having him home when I came home. The house seems so empty without his presence. I miss having him tease me out of my bad mood. Things never seemed so bad when I had him to balance me out. I miss having him here to discuss the big decisions in life - like should I sell or should I rent? Should I retire young or work a few more years? I miss having him to cuddle up with. Watching a movie by myself just isn't the same. I miss having him to go places with. I hate walking in alone and not having someone by my side. I miss Saturday drives to no where special - just getting out of the house. I miss Saturday morning when he cooked me breakfast and I slept in. What is the one thing you miss that your husband used to do just for you?
