U go girl: I know exactly what u mean. Time to just Enjoy each day with SELF. If we don't appreciate ourselves then how do we expect anyone else to enjoy our company. Time to sew and enjoy with friends. Happy Quilting Hours.

So i am sure he won't mind a few quilting purchases!
Have a wonderful time quilting late into the night!

In the beginning I dreaded his every absence.
Now I'm just the opposite. I'm not saying I "like" my husband being away - the difference is "me". I've learned to cope with it better. Instead of constantly thinking about him and what he's doing - I concentrate on keeping myself busy. We both enjoy the "vacations" from each other, but not as much as the "homecoming".

That's how I am when my DH goes to pastors' retreat. This year, it won't happen because I'll be puppy sitting our five grand-dogs and I can't use that many helpers, only the one that lives here full time.
