All alone....

So, Chris left me... Not for forever but for the weekend. Our sister-in-law Jess is getting baptized today (hoorah!) and Jess and Peggy thought it would be nice for Chris and I to be there. Unfortunately I get irratable when I don't sleep, and emotionally unstable so I would cry lots since we would only be able to go for such a short time! So I didn't go. I also have to work today, which is where I am at right now! I couldn't ask anyone else to fill in for me because by the time we learned about it, it would have been really last minute to ask someone. So I stayed home.

We both worked yesterday and then went to the library to pick up my books, got some pizza and watched a movie. Then Chris packed and then off to Denver to drop him off at the airport! His plane didn't leave until 1:15 this morning but since I am pregnant and like my sleep and had to work today we left a little earlier than we needed. At 8:30 to be specific. It takes an hour and a half to get to the airport so we got there at 10 and then I had to drive all by myself the whole way home. I was so tired and my eyes were all crazy like! I haven't had that blurry vision in a long time, unless I take my glasses off... Anyway, I finally got home safe and sound and soooo tired so I went straight to bed! But I couldn't sleep! I know it sounds silly but this is the first time that Chris and I have been apart at night and I am so used to him being there that I kept waking up and he wasn't there! I woke up a lot! I missed him a lot...

So now I get to look forward to an empty house when I go home tonight. My neighbors are all busy and so I don't get much human interaction today. I also get to plan out the primary lesson for tomorrow. I usually do that on Fridays and Saturdays at work but tomorrow I get to teach it all by myself. I think it will be somewhat difficult because Chris is so good at taking over when I run out of things to say. Not to mention we might have all 5 little boys and 1 little girl. The funny thing is that the girl is probably the most difficult. She doesn't understand ownership... She frequently comes up to the table during the lesson and takes my stuff and goes and sits back down... odd girl. Anyway, I am teaching about water and how Heavenly Father made it for us. I am trying to think of fun things to do with the kids that will take up lots of time but coming up with a lack. If anyone has any ideas BEFORE tomorrow, I would love to hear them!

Anyway, the point of this blog is to express the fact that I am alone and I wish Chris were home with me because I sleep better at night when he is.

Good luck with your primary lesson tomorrow. If I remember correctly you teach sunbeams (which is what Daniel and I did last year...now we're teaching ctr 7, and it's much more enjoyable!). You could bring a rubbermade tote and put water in it and let the kids play with it...depending on your kids though, it may get pretty wet and messy! It could be fun!
