BTK called me at 8:30am this morning to let me know he reached his destination: the launch site on the French River in Canada. He took off last night and met up with his brothers to begin the journey North, and now he is there...and not here. After we hung up, I missed him. It is quiet here. It is pouring rain. I feel a little lonely. I mean, I guess I do have the dogs to keep me company and plenty of things I could keep busy with. And I am truly happy for BTK to be able to take this little (7day) getaway with his brothers. And he has been SO excited to go! I've been stepping over camping/fishing/hiking gear for nearly three weeks now!
But it is still gonna be a bit lonely. And that is okay :) A little solitude will probably serve me well :)
So, I'm sitting here at the computer reading up on blogs and deciding what I'll do with my day when I realize that we have a wedding to attend next weekend and I don't have anything to wear! SO, at 31 weeks pregnant I get to go DRESS SHOPPING!!!! YAY!!!! Now, if it were just the one wedding, I think I could get away with wearing some dress pants and a cutesy maternity top...but we have four weddings to attend in the next month and a half and I'm doing a reading at one of them, so I'd better go to the dreaded mall and find something big and tent-like to fit myself into.
It's raining and humid and gray and all I want to do is sit on the couch with a book (after I vacuum the dog hair from it, of course).
Instead, I will get in my car and drive two cities away to the mall where I will walk around to different stores and try on maternity dresses. It's gonna be FABulous!
Then, I will come home and nap before I head to work this evening.
Wow, what a great day! I bet BTK wishes he were here so that he could join me ;)

The maternity clothes they have now are really quite pretty. I'm sure you'll find something beautiful to wear that doesn't feel like (or look like) you're wearing a tent.
I love it when my husband goes away for a little while. WHen I was pregnant, he left every weekend to work out of town and I looked forward to that time by myself to just veg out or get things done. And with no one else there, it could go either way and no one would care.
I have a little something for you over at my main blog - it's at:
