We talk every night on the phone, sometimes watching TV with each other over the phone (good thing he has a lot of minutes on his cell or we'd be broke). He'll also call sometimes during the day, depending on how busy he is. If he's just doing testing and having to wait during test runs, he always calls to pass the time. We also chat on the computer and I send e-mails/text messages to his phone.
It is difficult keeping a connection at times but, we've never really had what would be considered a normal life (9-5 jobs with both of us being home every night) so we've learned to adjust, deal and make the most of the time we do have together. We're very protective of "our" time and when he is home, we're rarely out of each other's sight.
