Weekend... Again

Image

Well, today is a wet one here. Soccer was cancelled. Didn't really fancy standing in the rain. We are off to visit the Silver Fox's family and then will drop him at the airport tomorrow. The time has gone pretty quickly but it was heavenly having him home. He has left me with a freezer full of meals. God bless him. Our little emotional petrol tanks have been filled and we are planning his next visit. He is the most relaxed I have ever seen him. Ever. Usually he gets up around 4 am. Not this time. Sleeping until 7 even. Quite a record for him.

So have a lovely weekend everyone. We are a little sad but it is what it is.

Ciao for now... 
 

Weekend Again...

Image

That was an unexpected little hiatus wasn't it a la Blogger? The week has 'flown' by again and where I live we are well and truly into Autumn. Even with the beloved flannelet sheets on it is still chilly sans the Silver Fox. Not keen on this 'working away' business anymore. I feel like a part of me is missing. Like there is a hole in my heart and it is getting bigger. I'm being dramatic I know. It is our 21st wedding anniversary this week and I am used to being a couple. I know I am lucky in so many ways but I am running out of energy to keep all the juggling balls in the air. Today. The Tweenies have been a bit beastly this week so I had to get out my 'scary' persona. Doesn't often come out but when it does... look out. Even the Silver Fox knows to be afraid of that side of me. It is usually when I have been pushed to the edge and am about to fall over. Works though. Gets the desired effect. For quite a while. 

Am I whinging too much?  On re-reading this post I am. I know a lot of you cope just fine with your other halves away. The Silver Fox would tell me to 'toughen up Princess'. But he is the same. Any tips you can pass on?


PS: Just had a little 'surf' through Blogland. Good for the soul I think...
