Sometimes I like to have "me" time. Tonight, Timon and Henry are far far away and I'm here by myself, and it's not the pleasant "me" time I had imagined. I don't get to hug and kiss Henry and tuck him into bed, I don't get to relax with Timon and unwind while talking about our days... it's just me and the tv, a little ravioli (now THAT was delicious, and I didn't have to share), and an early bedtime. All that might sound wonderful to some people, but if you've ever spent any time with my son when he's being so sweet like at bedtime, or had a nice conversation with my dear husband, then you know what it is that I'm missing just now. Anyhoo... I also just had a 17 minute phone conversation which included enough information to fill literally 3 minutes if delivered efficiently. It's not the caller's fault. As my father would say, my attitude needs adjustment. I hope your attitudes are appropriately pleasant for everyone around you to experience, unlike mine. I just miss my boys.

Was the phone call from a telemarketer? Sometimes, if you're lonely enough, they're fun to talk to!
But, you didn't mention the best thing of all (besides the ravioli) that you got to enjoy alone - the wonderful tv show you were able to watch!
Being alone can be great, but I can understand feeling too alone, too. Hard to explain... we get to visit with Chad, soon. I can't wait to see him! I hope you're doing well- we're visiting our families now and it's wonderful. Can't believe I'll be a mom soon!
