we’ve been loving the beach this year! we even went last wednesday when there was a heat index of 110. i had a few people tell us “don’t forget to drink water!” uh, gee, danks! sheer brilliance! sorry don’t mean to poke fun at their relevant worry, oh wait, yes i do! it’s funny!
anyway, yesterday my husband took luke to my mother-in-laws at 9 a.m. so he could spend the day with her. i have not been without luke very much. & the only times i’ve was been away from him in the morning is when i’m at some appointment, which is very few and far between, so i’m not at home without him, i’m in some building imagining his little face on every circular object. so where am i going with this long winded intro?
well, i’m just saying, it was SO weird to be here without him. the air was different, if that makes sense. i just sorta looked around and thought, ugh, this is dreadful. i missed my Lukie in mere minutes!
then i pulled myself together and thought, ok, let’s get stuff done. and by let’s, i mean me & all my alter egos. just kiddn. i think.
but seriously, i was really ready to conquer stuff that’s been on my to do list, the things that are hardest to get done with a youngin’ around.
so what did i do? not much!
but i did do a few things that i have not done in a while, and here they are listed in chronological order:
1) practiced my piano with the volume very high (it’s a keyboard-piano)
2) danced in my underwear to Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the USA”
3) watched some tv while i ate my lunch (i pretty much never watch tv during the day, unless i’m sick)
4) sat at my desk in complete peace (no tv, not even the slightest noise…. this was weird!) & went thru old cards, stationary & what nots.
and that’s about it.
hey, i’m not used to being alone so by the time i started to “get things going” i had to leave.
oh well, it was fun!
although i did just re-read what i did and i think i might have done the same exact things when i was 15.
