It's been a long time since Hubster went away. Back when he worked for the City of Virginia Beach he used to go to Marine Mechanics School for a week at a time, usually in GA or NJ. The girls and I would carry on as usual while he was away (Although I do remember one time I missed him terribly when I had to take our sick beagle to the vet, only to find I had to make the dreaded termination decision. I cried all the way home).
Today Hubster flew to Colorado to help his parents drive across country. They are moving back here. Since the girls are now grown and gone I'm holding down the fort with my two fur-kids. I miss having Hubster here for Easter, but also know it is one of the few holidays he will actually spend with his dad.
I've kinda dreaded him going, but I'll get lots done in peace and quiet. I used to feel the same way when my girls would go spend time at their dad's house. I hated the thought as the time approached, but after the car drove off, boy, did I get some good alone time to read or watch birds or sleep without interruption! I think it's OK to say I enjoyed my alone time because I always knew they'd be back.
Same here... I'm rocking my little world. Eat what and when I want, chill how I want, work online without the 'you're always on the computer' voice in the background. Yeah, I definitely see a few perks here too.
Enjoy your Easter! I will!
