He started working 7 days a week more than 12 hours a day. I have some friends, but most of them have work to do with school or have a busy family life. I have no children. I have organized the house, done all the cleaning. What can I do to keep from being so bored without spending too much money?

I am dealing with the same type of issue with my husband, he works non stop since he got this promotion. I play with my dogs, go for walks, go to the gym , go to the library, volunteer my time at an animal shelter, and read a lot.
The possibilites are endless, many of which take no money at all. Go to the local animal shelter and walk dogs, it's fun, it's gets you out of the house and dogs love you ooooooh so much! :-D

Get a job so that he doesn't have to work 7 days a week, and more than 12 hours a day and can go back to a normal schedule.

Read books that can help your personal growth. Get involved in a church activity that you know will not interfere with the time you do get to spend with your husband. Take up a hobby like painting or some craft...go to Micheal's or Hobby Lobby for some ideas. Exercise, go walking, take up Yoga or Tai Chi. Figure out what you enjoy, and do it. There are a lot of things to do for ourselves when money is tight, but it can still offer us a great deal of satisfaction and eliminate boredom.

This is not a healthy situation. It is not good to be alone and it begs the question, why are you married? Is this a temporary situation? Is he working to relieve debt? If not then you have to insist that he find a different job because you need him and you love him and it's not healthy for either of you to be strangers in a marriage. What you are experiencing is normal and it's a warning to you that you have to act and respond to the situation. Normal can't be cured and taking up a hobby or having other friends isn't the answer...you need intimacy that only your husband, your soul mate....can provide. Plead with him to make a change as your marriage depends on it.

Something Specially
For You
I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard-
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke no word!
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
(I knew you wouldn't mind)-
I asked Him to send you treasures
Of a far more lasting kind!
I asked that He'd be near you
At the start of each new day
To grant you health and blessings
And my friendship to share your way
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small-
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all.

Find a need and fill it. There are lots of organizations that need help and it will take you out of yourself. But...talk with your hubby and let him know that you miss him.
