Single Mama Without the Drama

Larry's in Boston this week... and I'm a huge baby. I depend on him more and more every day. When he leaves I feel empowered for about two seconds. Like, I got this!! and then.....6pm comes and goes and he's not here. I miss him...every time. He's gone about a week out of every month and it never gets easier. Again, I think of others who have it far worse than I do, like single moms or military wives and again, I know they have to have far stronger genes or essence or whatever it is that makes them function more than I do, to be able to do what that do every day. Man, I'm a huge woose!

  (this is probably a good time to remind everyone that I make up words to mean things that they don't really mean all the time. Please keep that in mind at ALL times whenever reading my blog )

Bottom line, Larry and I are a team and we work really good together. Of course, we are both learning as we go along, but I wouldn't want anyone else raising these two little monkeys with me.

The loneliest time is at night, like right now. I swear 90 % of the time one of  us is watching something and the other is on the computer and we barely say two words together. But, just having my "person" here. Ya know??

I'm a lucky girl, with a great hubby, I call my friend.[ I've got an amazing family who calls all the time to check in and some great neighbors who I know I can count on too. So I know I'm never reeeeally alone!

But in my "woe is me moment" that is now... I've been  filling my nights with bad tv and my days with lots of activities to make the time pass by quickly and pleasantly.

Here are some of the things me and the noodles have been up to since dadas been gone:

We made Miss Gina's art from "Mommy School"..such a great project! He loved it!
and ate it....



We made muffins!! 
and ate the batter :)


We made a shapes matching game too :)



We went to Target..and had some Starbucks...ofcourse!

We've also been to the park a couple times, went on some walks, played with cars..alot and well, there's always dancing!! ;) 


Oh man, did I mention he has only been gone since Wednesday...  :)
