Its always tough when your spouse goes away - on the one had I'm used to Nathaniel being gone for long deployments...but its never easy. 3 days or several months. But it IS nice not having to worry about meals and/or cleaning when they're not around. However...the Mom-thing would be a different story.

Like you, I was on my own for a long time so not having someone around doesn't really phase me. It's also gotten easier as Zach's gotten older. When it was freezing cold here so I couldn't just go for walks outside and Zach was still pretty unpredictable I hated when David traveled.Angela and Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196403668528302122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1403432524962865970.post-25652949207766795382009-08-05T05:22:45.396-10:002009-08-05T05:22:45.396-10:00My husband is leaving for the lake with his buddie...My husband is leaving for the lake with his buddies on Friday, and I'm kind of excited to run the remote.

That said, I actually like it when he goes away. I miss him, but it's kind of nice to have the place to myself (after my son is in bed!). <br /><br /><br />It also means I can eat cereal for dinner!Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09860306741449772444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1403432524962865970.post-57834740092759505852009-08-05T02:47:37.739-10:002009-08-05T02:47:37.739-10:00It is kind of nice when the man is away and you do...It is kind of nice when the man is away and you don't have to worry about spending time + cooking for them.. for a few days!
