I hear ya on the being alone. At this moment my husband took the boys to FL to stay with my MIL and be at the beach all day....but I have to work. When they left I really missed them but have to say cooking for me at night and watching TV alone has been great. Then I am bad and stay up late surfing the web or reading a book and then drag into work the next day. I keep thinking I will use the time to deep clean the house, clean fridge, etc. but hasn't happened yet.

This is so sweet! It's nice to have a break but 11 days is a loooong time.

My boys will be with my parents for a week in July. I always have high hopes for what I'll get done, but I ususally just end up crashing early and enjoying the fact I don't have to pick up toys everyday.

Amo - I'm waiting for that. That moment when they do something awful and I think "was I nuts last week to think I missed this?"

It'll happen.

Bonus was gone for five days last month and I SWEAR every single time I called, he told me he was too busy to talk to me. Now don't get me wrong, independence is cool and all that, but GIVE MOMMA A BREAK!

I did sneak in a kissie when I finally saw him though.

And then he immediately hit his brother. It had been 5 days afterall...

Ellie - I normally LOVE LOVE to not have to do pick ups at the end of the day in rush hour traffic, or a weekend of peace and quiet would sound awesome! And I think with a weekend, I could be motivated to get things done because it's not much time.

This has been a little long for me.

When my son used to go with his dad every other weekend, I'd get everything done that I had waited to do. Of course, that was the first hour of my weekend. I then waited for him to return for the other 40+ hours.

Actually, I did go to movies, read books, work more, but it was just killing time.

Yeah, I agree. I always miss my kids after the first two days of being away (and we only go away once a year!).

I always plan a list of things I'm certain I'll get done when the girls are gone, but it never happens. Theres just something about the chaos that is my life that seems odd when missing.
Hope you enjoy your last two days of freedom...

I fly my kids up on July 19th for 2 weeks at camp grandparents and i know what you mean - all these great ideas for the time and then i end up calling them a million times just to hear their voice.

The thought of having eleven child free days sounds fabulous. However, like you say the reality isn't all that.

Hopefully you can squeeze that chub soon - HA

"I want to squeeze this chub." What an adorable Mom phrase. Coin it and patent it - whatever. You know what to do!
