It’s 7:46am on Monday and I can barely keep my eyes open. I’ve already been to Indianapolis and back dropping Tim, Korry and Ken off at the airport (they’re headed to a media convention). I couldn’t sleep last night because I was worried about oversleeping, and don’t like the fact that I won’t get to see my husband for a few days. So, needless to say, all I want to do right now is go back to bed. I am planning on leaving work around 1 or 2 so I can rest before my small group meeting tonight at our place at 7:30.
It’s funny to me how used I’ve gotten to having another person around all the time. I used to live alone and it didn’t bother me. I never had problems going to sleep and I never felt like I needed to have noise to keep me from hearing all the ‘sounds’ that are everywhere. but now, I am so used to Tim being there that when he isn’t (which, thankfully, isn’t all that often) I hear a million sounds I can’t explain and just in general feel like I’m being watched, etc. So him being gone is going to be no fun!
Luckily, I have friends keeping me fairly busy this week. I have smoup tonight (after which I will probably crash pretty hard from lack of sleep). Tomorrow night my dearest friend Lizzie is coming to town to hang out. Wednesday I am hoping to do dinner with Rene and maybe over to Amy’s for some good ol’ scrapbooking time. Then Tim gets back early thursday morning (after I am already at work sadly). We’ll have Thursday night to hang out, then I leave Friday morning to go Indy to have the Race for the Cure weekend with my mom!
Whew, it’s going to be a crazy week. I am very much looking forward to hanging out with my mom this weekend, though!
I just have to find my brother a present first…what do you buy a soon to be 17 year old boy for his birthday?
Ah… my email questions are answered. :)I hate when Scott is gone, but there is a tiny part of me that enjoys a night all to myself (well, with the exception of those meddling kids.)How ’bout an itunes gift card for your bro with some weird snacks like beef jerky and pistachio nuts? 🙂
Hi Emily! I clicked on your name while reading comments on Cindy’s blog…and I couldn’t believe how much we have in common on our favorites on our bios. I also love Caedmon’s Call and Wicked and The Princess Bride, among others. I got to see Wicked in Chicago last summer and it was one of the highlights of my entire year!Come by and visit my blog when you have a moment. 🙂
Em, I, too, have been amazed to how quickly I’ve gotten used to having Stan around. I lived alone for 5 years, and it was fine. Now, I don’t even really like being by myself at the house for a couple of hours. It is too quiet.Oh, and money. You buy a soon to be 17 year old boy money, or gift cards. All they want is the means to buy what they want.
