Need to get it off my chest

I have felt frustrated all day long today.  I'm probably being overly sensitive (it is almost that time of the month) but I'm just tired of people feeling sorry for me and then not offering to have me come over.  Now I know that most people probably don't know what to do to help someone out whose husband is not at home so I can't get too upset, but I hope that by writing this it will help someone else down the road help someone else.  When your husband is gone it gets lonely.  The next time you come across someone who has a spouse gone don't just give them an apologetic smile.  Invite them over to hang out, for dinner, for something.  Just because you see them out and about during the day doesn't mean they aren't lonely. If you are thinking about them during the day call them up and tell them and invite them over.  If you're thinking about them chances are they need someone.
