Day 10 as a SSAHM/Day 1 as a Single Lady

Well today was kiddo's and my last day together. We, of course, slept in our fort, and enjoyed "sleeping in" (aka ignoring the time change). We played Paper Mario and made it to the final level, the moon.

Side Story: Our family has been talking a lot about dreams. We are always talking about what we dreamt about last night, etc. So as we are playing Paper Mario and we finally reach the moon level, Xander shouts out "mom, mom. This is what I dream about. I go to the moon on my rocket ship and to so many planets." He then went on to tell me all about his dreams of being on the moon and in outer space. It was adorable.

Then we got up and dressed and went to Auntie Lulu's house. She is going to watch kiddo for me this week while I have to go back to work (boo). We made it up there much faster than expected, and had a wonderful lunch/dinner of roast, potatoes and carrots. It was delicious.

Then I helped Lulu with a craft project for her craft fair. Then we got kiddo all set-up. I was apprehensive to leave him, because I have never left him for soo long. But he was ready to stay and play, so I said my good byes and off I went.

On the way home, since I had no hubby and no kiddo to bore to death, I drove by my old stomping grounds. I hadn't really been back since I moved away in 1997, and definitely haven't been back since my parents moved 5+ years ago. It was weird, to say the least.

Once I got home, I started getting my projects for this week all ready, so in the small amount of time I have in the evenings I can get them done. Hopefully it will be enough to distract me from how empty and lonely the house feels with everyone gone.

On a side note, only a few more days til Jared comes home (Saturday). Miss ya!
