Bring It 2012

Posted in Holidays, tagged , , , , on December 31, 2011 | 1 Comment »

As I sit here on New Year’s Eve, I am overwhelmed with a feeling of contentment. Sure, 2011 was a tough year for my husband and I – professionally, mentally, personally. Yet we persevered. And we’re even stronger for it. And sure, my husband isn’t here to spend New Year’s Eve with my daughter, parents [...]

Last run of the year

Posted in General, Holidays, tagged , , on December 19, 2011 | 1 Comment »

This last weekend was one final “run” for my husband and many musicians here in Nashville. It seemed my Facebook page was nothing but posts like, “Heading out for three shows in four days! Last run of 2011!” Friday night, I took my husband to the bus to head out for a show. Winter always [...]

A holiday apart

I hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving last week! I was lucky enough to get to spend it surrounded by family – including my husband. I know Road Widows who weren’t so lucky. They spent the holiday with their husband on the road. It’s one of those “pitfalls” of the job. I’m willing to [...]

Anniversary for One

Posted in Holidays on June 3, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary this week, long distance. As is true for many of us (and for many holidays), Husband was on the road the day of our anniversary. And I missed him. But if the old adage “absence makes the heart grow fonder,” then maybe his being away isn’t the worst [...]

Happy 1st Birthday to a Little Road Widow Girl!

Today is the 1-year birthday of my husband’s band mate’s daughter. Unfortunately, the band is still out of town and this sweet little girl is celebrating her 1st birthday with her mom … sans dad (who will actually get home late tonight). While I know today must be a difficult day for her mom, a great [...]

Who Will Be My Valentine?

Usually I don’t know the answer this, but this time I do. My husband! He is coming home on Sunday, just in time for Valentine’s Day. It’s such a rarity for him to be home on a holiday or for a special event, that this one really surprised me. With my husband’s career choice, he [...]

Disappearing Acts

So, we’ve finally made it to the end of tour season. Whew! It’s been a long year and we all deserve a break – the musicians, crew & artists from touring and us, Road Widows, from being alone. Now we can just spend every moment together and enjoy it (since we never get that!).  Not [...]

Oh, The Joys of the Season!

Posted in Holidays on December 7, 2009 | 3 Comments »

It’s my favorite time of year. Christmas-time! I absolutely love shopping for presents to give to loved ones. However, I don’t particularly enjoy shopping for my husband. I know that sounds bad. What I mean is, I love to give him gifts, I just don’t love trying to figure out what to get him. He [...]
