Wade left for Minnesota on a work trip yesterday. Neither of us leaves very often without the other so whenever he does I get sad and think about how much I will miss him and then realize that as hard as I try not to, I take so much of our time together for granted.
But then when I remember what it's like to be on my own (for a couple days), I also remember how much I love my "me" time. When Wade is gone, I do things that I don't normally take the time out of my work and school schedule to do.
Things I do when Wade is gone include:
- a bubble bath with my cat leif (he sits on the edge of the tub and plays with the bubbles)
- bring the antena upstairs to the bedroom and leave the television on all night
- go to bed at 8 with a glass of wine and my laptop
- watch chick flicks
- skip the gym and veg on the couch
- call my mom
- and of course leave my phone under my pillow and wait for his good night call!

I love the "things I do when my husband is gone" list. I have a "things I do when I'm traveling list" that's pretty cool. I'm sitting in an airport on my way to San Antonio right now blogging in the middle of the afternoon on a Tuesday when everyone else in my office is working!! Traveling isn't all that bad!
