I know how you feel Amy. On our first New Year`s Eve we managed to talk on the phone for more than one hour, it was a nice feeling that we are talking on the first hour of the new year.
BUT on our second New Year it was very sad as I was on the plane on my way home from the UK on that New Year`s Eve huhuhu I was really crying on my entire journey.
Then our third New Year`s Eve we were apart as well, but we chat online using the headset and the webcam.

On our fourth, fifth and sixth New Year`s Eve, we neither chat online or talk on the phone, because he is at work.
It was really disappointing, but thats the saddest side of LDR, sometimes we cant avoid those such disappoinments.
I feel so sad, but I got his Happy New Year text message though.
But this morning,when I get up and switch on my PC, he is online and I got loads of offline messages from him.
He said he tried to left work early just to be able to chat to me online, but I log off just few minutes before he logs in

He said he s been trying to call my landline and celpphone but no success.
Happy New Year to you Amy and Duncan.
