<human>: My wife and I have been married for nearly 10 years now.  The longest we have ever been separated in the last 10 years was a single week a few years ago.  She is my best friend and we are very close.

Fast forward to today... A few of my coworkers and I have been working on a side project and we were recently accepted into a start-up accelerator.  For those who don't know what a startup accelerator is, it is basically boot camp for starting a company and at the end of it you pitch your idea to investors.  

The only way we can afford to go is for our wives to continue working at their day jobs / stay at home while we all move to another city about 12 hours away to get the new company started.  At the end of the three months I will be moving back, but this extended separation is going to be hard.  My wife has been very supportive of this new venture.  Without her support it would not have been possible.  Of course we are both apprehensive about being apart for so long.  

My question is, What are some things I can do to make it easier on her?  I would like to surprise her, like sending her flowers once a week... or leaving notes hidden around the house for her to find while I'm gone.  Anyone have some better ideas?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
