Over the course of this "girls only" time, I have learned quite a lot of interesting facts I thought I would share...
- your "cokes per day" quota gets higher as the week get longer
- cleaning the house becomes optional; as do showers and bedtimes
- men DO help around the house
- buying treats for your visiting teaching sisters is a BAD idea because you'll eat them all yourself
- Wonderpets becomes funnier the more times you watch it, on that note, Tigger is hilarious!
- I'm very blessed and thankful for good friends
- you take A LOT of steps each day chasing a toddler
- a gated deck is like a large playpen, it's great!
- from Target to home is 10 "wheels on the bus" songs w/actions
- dancing and playing the "mirror/copycat" game counts as exercise
- DO NOT leave your child unattended with a RED crayon--frequent inspections for such items are necessary
TO BE CONTINUED...

As the wife of a travelling man, you have all my sympathy...two weeks is a LONG OLD TIME! You are a brave woman and deserve some super fantastic award like a shopping spree or massage or something reeeaaaallly good...however, good job surviving! Your post cracked me up in how much I could relate...showers optional, a balanced meal rather than cereal, eh?...funny and yet so very true!
Love the crack about how many times you sing "Wheels on the Bus" from target to home.
Enjoy your nap!
Hooray! I feel your pain.
And also, you forgot to mention that you learn... A bowl of cereal CAN be a great dinner!
Wonder Pets is funnier every time you watch it! Actually I've started to wonder about the sanity of the writers of that show... =)
So men do help around the house- huh? That was pretty funny. You must have really been desperate to admit that you realized that :-) j/k So many 'have-tos' become optional-you would think life would be easier without them-except that soooo isn't true :-)
That's a great list. It reminds me of my summer list (showers, bedtimes, etc)
My goodness you are so brave, i would be so scare of being alone at home, it's different when you know your not-so-better-half is comming home at the end of the day, than knowing he's comming home at the end of two weeks.
I couldn't sleep when Walt went to training in Chicago for a week.
I am startin to realize you are just as funny as me. I love to read your blog - Love and miss you. Jenn
