Ahhh, you guys are making me laugh with all the things your spouses bought solidifying that they don't live with us. It really is making me feel better.
When H was talking about moving out he was talking about all the meditation he was going to do and how he didn't even want to have a TV. I looked into a HUGE Costco charge on the credit card two days after he moved out and it was a gargantuan TV, apple TV, and all the accoutrements. Guess "meditating" wasn't on the agenda any more.
I'm not spending any unnecessary money (ok, I bought a pair of shoes for $50) but I really want to get a new bedspread. Being in our bed has been hard. It's HUGE and I'm pretty small so it feels especially empty. I sleep horribly and I'm often up for most of the night reading, writing, meditating, snuggling with D7, etc. I keep thinking if I changed up the bedding it might make me feel like it's a new space just for me. Bad idea?
Got a text this morning from H. Actually, no I didn't. It was a text for my D7 wishing her luck on her spelling and vocab test today. I think I'd normally think that is super sweet but since he texted her without acknowledging me, I'm annoyed by it. By the way, I'm 12. I need to grow up.
Maybell, I'll take you up on your pact. Find ways to enrich my time while D7 is not home. I can do it. What are you going to do to care for YOU until Monday?
