Home alone again tonight. I've already locked up, put the kids to bed, loaded the dishwasher and processed laundry. Now I get to sit here and have a silent night (provided my lovelies sleep without a hitch tonight). Since I prefer to have a silent night with the hubs, this kinda sucks.
Today was a good day. Took a long, enjoyable walk on a beautiful day with a good girlfriend, discussing my new favorite song, Home, and just how hippie dippy I am in relation to my button-up shirt husband who grew up listening to Kenny Rogers and John Denver. The windows were replaced at lunchtime by a towering 7-foot, trying-too-hard-to-be-sympathetic man, who professionally demonstrated great strength (sarcasm!) as he quickly and embarrassingly easily snapped the new sashes into place. My much healthier children have successfully annoyed each other without injury and I even witnessed them following directions without too many requests.
So here I sit, typing away, thinking about things best left unsaid, wishing for things that will never be, and being thankful for all that is. Still wish I wasn't alone.
