My husband is home every week only Friday through Monday. It is hard for me as we have 3 children, so I am basically a single mom during the time he is away.

Being on time is a respect issue,\nhe apparently does not respect you or your family, talk to him about this issue. about respect

That's a tough one. Unless you plan to move anytime soon, you're stuck with your neighbour's nosy character. I can empatize with your situation. My retired neighbours have the uncanny ability to appear on the driveway or on the porch whenever I've got to get out with my kids. \n\nI realize it's an inconvience to you, but I remind myself each time - they are probably just lonely, maybe one day I'll feel the same way too.  And instead of making our relationship a strained one, instead of waiting for them to ask me "where I'm off to" I greet them first with a quick but friendly hello and then end off with "See you soon... it's a busy day I'm off". In essence I've been polite to them and at the same time kept my affairs private. \n\nHope this helps.

Yes. Family is very important to me and we are very close.

Definitely.  We take care of each other, and basically my family keeps me out of trouble.  >_>

Yes but with someone other than my kids and grandmother and my 2 blind uncles.  And I'de like to go somewhere besides the doctor, grocery store, PTO meetings and the kids school. I'de like to get out with just my husband. We haven't been out together just the two of us since my son was born 10 yrs ago. Not that I don't love them all just wishing for some alone time that's all.And some uniterupted adult conversation about something other than doctors, medicine and what the next money maker will be.

i am travelling myself. it is difficult to keep communication with someone back home that you may have feelings for as you are always thinking of them. therefore you aren't able to make the most of your adventure abroad. relax.\n make the most of whats in front of you today

Yes, a family member, or a close friend. And make sure that it is someone who will let you stay in contact.

I am LDS, but this is just my opinion from my observations. \n\nThere are still many LDS families that live close to their parents and other extended family members. We are very family oriented. \n\nHowever, we live in a global society, have a global church, and therefore have members everywhere, many of them do not live near family. It seems that despite distances, many LDS families mantain very good relationships with their parents and families. They often hold regular family reunions and get togethers.\n\nI have lived overseas for the last 12 years and yet have seen my family and my wife's on a regular basis.

my brother was over seas for a while, and i barely ever heard from him. it is hard for them to get to the phone, etc, they are so busy and focused on what they are doing. i would keep it up, you probably dont realize your emails are making his day. i would think you should keep it up.
