I'm Easy like Sunday morning...

it's pretty early. 7 AM-ish. Bubba and Princess are awake. I myself didnt get to bed until 2 and then the hubby finally got his internet up and running and was able to skype me and for the first time since August (outside of old photos) I was able to see his face! And you just can't imagine how my heart melted. He looked good. Considering he said he'd been up all night playing with his new toy (laptop). We didn't get to talk too terribly long. Princess had literally just joined me in the bed. (Bruiser came later... they end up in my bed regardless). So she was able to see him too. That was awesome!

To be continued...
Later that day... :) My Mom came over to babysit while us big girls got out of the house. I took Cici and Elliebear to see 2012. It was very long... Like 2.5 hrs but it was certainly entertaining. Lots of destruction, so it was sad and kinda scary to think about the end of the world, but what can we do but 'embrace whatever suck' is handed to us... right? I feel like I am at peace with myself enough to accept my fate. There's nothing I can do about the fate of the earth. I can just ensure that I have lived, laughed and loved while I inhabited it.
I made navy beans with carrots and bacon/onion (seasoning), left over pork chops and rice for dinner. Mom ate with us. I braided Princess' hair and she did her laundry. It was a productive evening. She even helped clean a bit while she was here. That was awesome. My Mom is great in that aspect. I certainly needed the help.
Watched Desperate Housewives and Dexter. Both really heating up for the season! Great day. I enjoyed it. There was one minor thing... Well, it hurt me so I don't know how minor it was... During another Skype call, hubby showed me around his room. He was in good spirits about it, joking around. "Here's my closet" (3 pegs in the wall), "here's my bed" (uncomfy little cot thingy) and I thought to myself, Geez, just the night before I was complaining about the kids always clamoring over me and how cramped I was feeling. I was feeling cramped about being surrounded by people who love me and the hubby has no one to clamor over him who loves him. I felt like a really selfish bitch and it made me cry. I was so sad for my husband. And semi-disappointed in myself. But after a while, I came back to reality. I know I need a break every now and then from all this "love"... Heck, anybody would. Everyone's gotta have a bit of space... right?
Oh how I love you, hubby!
