My best friend/soulmate/husband has been sent to Balitmore. He was gone the last 2 weeks, came home for a whirlwind weekend, and left again this morning. I'm not pleased. I'm not the dependent can't-do-formyself wife.. but I'm also still a girl, and rather a princess.. and I want my man here, my bed is modest in size, but big when I'm alone.
So to save me from total insanity I have planned to stay very busy. In just a few minutes my crew, + 1 (friend of Beth's) will head up to my in-laws to go to their local pumpkin patch for selection of THE pumkins for our home. Dinner, home, bed for kids, netflix for me. Gilmore Girls season 2. :o)
Tomorrow after sewing in the morning, I'm going to devote a bit of time to getting Drew's room ready for his big boy bed, which arrived yesterday. It's not a loft, or a captain's bed.. it's a regular old twin bed.. but it was free, and free is good. Some shifting of furniture has to take place and some things have to come out, but all will be done as quickly as possible, for no other reason than the bed is now leaning on end in my dining room. NOT working for me. I am, however, extremely grateful to my DGMIL, for the gift of the bed.
So, between sewing up the last of the dresses, making way for a new bed, lunches with friends and 4 kids, I should be ok. Besides 4 days is a snap compared to 12!!!!

'Sounds like the worst part is over for now, JBear. You can handle this. It just takes a little bit of creativity and patience. : ) It sounds like you have the creativity, anyway. : ) 'Just teasing. : ) This is an opportunity to think out of the box, and can compel you to try things that you haven't tried before... or... will allow others to help you and your kids, in ways that they may not have otherwise.
Don't forget that life happens in between the routine. : )
