Eric has his psych evaluation this coming weekend, in Worcester, and I'll be home for a girls-weekend with my nieces for an overnight. The following weekend is my best friend's first dress fitting for her wedding (!!!), and since I am a giant child about driving into the big city with my baby in tow, the easiest option for me is to stay at my moms and hitch a ride to Boston from there. Easy, yes. But it proposes yet another weekend away from Eric.
Funny how you can live with someone, spend your whole day texting and talking to them, have dinner with them, share child-duties with them, and yet miss them so much. Between his long work day and my day at home with the 2 girls, by the time bedtime rolls around, we're ready for bed, too.
Once these next couple of weekends are through, I'd like to say we'll catch a break, but then the holiday plans begin. Marriage with both parents divorced is a recipe for 3 or 4 separate celebrations, which can take up the whole month.
I'm starting to feel a bit overwhelmed with all we have to do, and also with how little time we're spending together. Especially with Eric starting his corrections officer academy next month which will throw our schedule through hoops, and again when he gets a job and is working 2nd or 3rd shift.
Just hoping we can find some calm in all the chaos, and settle into all the new schedules and changes the best we can. And finding some time to grab a sushi roll would be fab ;)
