I really hate sleeping alone. Some nights I go to bed before you do and fall asleep easily because I know you are in the house and will be snuggling up to me soon. Right now the house feels empty (even with three sleeping children in the rooms next to me) and it doesn't help that I have an over-active-imagination. The neighbors cats are running around our yard again and once I've convinced myself that the noise I hear is the cats--not some crazed lunatic out to slaughter me and my children--I wonder if the cats are crazed and are going to break into the house to scratch us to pieces! So, instead of falling soundly asleep at 10:00 I am up, playing solitaire and blogging...I miss you. Good thing you come home tomorrow night.
Our day went pretty darn well. I didn't get a shower but got Lorien to school on time (without leaving Wyatt and Clare home alone) and the house is VERY clean (a luxury I paid for). The kids got a real treat for dinner: Kid Cuisine. This is quite possibly the most disgusting food ever pre-processed and frozen into blue plastic trays. Who puts chocolate pudding in a container covered with plastic you're supposed to microwave for 90 seconds?!? The kids don't like this food, I have to force them to finish their meal just like it was homemade casserole. However, they've been 100% brainwashed by the commercials on TV. Even though they take one bite and pull a face like they've just licked the bottom of my oldest pair of flip-flops they still beg and plead to buy them when we go grocery shopping (I almost never give in).

***************In addition to microwaveable dinners and school we finished our shopping for Father's Day and the birthday of our resident trampoline bouncing, wrestling, rat exterminating, hard working, super hunk (that's all you Babe). Good luck tomorrow!

Great post...I especially liked the part about "our resident trampoline bouncing, wrestling, rat exterminating, hard working, super hunk".
Can't wait to come home tonight. I'll see you at 7pm.
aw...Cassie, you are a sweet wife! Brad is going on the Father Son camp-out with his nephew and brother this weekend and I am having Anxiety already! I wish we could live closer so we could have sleep-overs in situations like this...I'll get though it with a little gem I call Xanax.
i'll be taking one for the team of moms while my dan head out on a US tour for 6 weeks with a possibility of it extending to 4 or even 6 months! i'll be ok for the first 6 weeks that are planned but we may decide to move into a hotel to be close to our dad!
I'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks this way! The last time i made a comment like this, my husbands family told him i sounded like a psycopath... there were other words in there, but they aren't needed. I"m glad i'm not the only one.
love ya!
