many possibilities (see below) Explanation: One could be: "u menja tak mnogo raboty" or simply:"Ocen' mnogo raboty...a tebja (ocen') chotel(a)" ('chotela' when said by a female - ocen with a reverse ^ (diacritical sign) on the c) chotet' / zachotet' [2]: to want something, to desire something/someone By the way, shouldn't it be 'badLY' |

Куча работы... но страшно по тебе истоскавался. Explanation: "Kucha paboty... no strashno po tebe istaskovalsia." Or "istaskovalas'", if it is said by a female. You may translate it literary as well: "Kucha (ujma, prorva) raboty... no tebia hochetsia strashno (uzhasno)." (Куча (уйма, прорва) работы... но тебя хочется страшно (ужасно)." Or: "Работы невпроворот... но страшно по тебе соскучился (соскучилась)." ("Raboty nevprovorot... no strashno po tebe soskuchilsia (soskuchilas'." |

Было много работы... но тебя мне очень не хватало. Explanation: If I am not mistaken the phrase is not completely correct - there should be "badly" instead of "bad". Anyway the version I have suggested can be applied (unlike may be other possible versions) to any "you", no matter, if this is he, or she. Cheers, |
