Hubby will be gone all week next week, Monday through Friday, for work. I can't remember where he's going, it doesn't even really matter. Then he'll be home late Friday night, here Saturday, and then leaves again on Sunday afternoon for another week somewhere else.
I hate when trips are back to back. It's even worse that Lily is so attached to him right now. She wakes up every morning and asks where Daddy is. We've taught her the days of the week so she knows when the weekend will be here and he'll be home. She is going to be a mess on Sunday when he leaves again after just getting home.
Not to mention the fact that we're under construction right now. I'm betting I end up doing all of the painting by myself while he's gone. It'll probably be finished when he's gone so he won't get to see it until much later.
I suppose I should count my lucky stars that he's not living in Korea by himself for a year like he would be if he had stayed in the military. Or I could just be happy he has a job he likes that pays all the bills. But instead I just want to bitch about how I hate feeling like a single mom every few weeks when he leaves and I have to pick up the emotional pieces of the Lila Bean.
I better get started on figuring out what I'm going to do with them to keep them (and myself) distracted.
Ok, I'm done.
I feel your pain! And Lila Bean? Cute as can be.
