First Night

Last night was Summit’s first night away from home. He spent the night at Ben’s parent’s and I think that he would not have gone there if up to me alone!! As I packed his bag and got all of his stuff ready to go, I became emotional and if it weren’t for all the people saying “its for his good” or something like that, he’d be with me right now. I haven’t called my in-laws yet today, I feel like I don’t miss him too much right now but if I heard him on the phone I’d become sad again, isn’t that horrible?? I didn’t miss him this morning at all, I’ll be honest, as I slept in and just laid in bed. I’m not one of those people that wake up in the morning and then just get up. I would probably lay in bed 12-15 hours a day if I could. I love to sleep! It had been a hard week so this day was needed.

So our big night out? Well, we crammed as much as possible into the hours following Summit’s departure. Dinner at Bizy’s (b/c we had some good coupons to use) ice cream at Cold Stone with our last minute friends, Josh and Katie, (in which I was the only person to get anything- thanks for that) and then on to the movies. (I had a free movie coupon and Ben got in for $2 because he is in law enforcement…) The good news was that he didn’t gripe at me about getting a bottled water b/c everything else was so cheap! :)

On a completely random note, I miss the days where a man dressed up in women clothes was the height of comedy and clean humor! I’m watching AMC and laughing my butt off at Don Knotts in a widow’s dress and veil…

    I’m glad you had a much deserved night out. I’m having one tonight. Roman hasn’t spent the night away yet. My parents are always pressuring me to let him stay with them, but gosh its hard. Sleeping in would definitely be nice….
