John had a business trip (to Flordia, no less) over the long weekend and I had a little taste of single mom-hood. To all the single mother’s out there, I bow to you. Seriously. I really am not that great at the single mom thing. I’m definitely more of a team player. My willful and very FAST toddler needs a team attack approach so I’m thankful to have John back home. Today is all about getting back into the swing of things as a family before the Thanksgiving holiday comes along to throw a wrench in things once more.

I will say, that even though I had 100% of the grunt work to take care of last week, I also got 100% of Miles’ love and snuggling. I usually have to share it with John, so it was a nice change to get ALLLLLL of it.

Here are some home alone confessions that prove once more, how much I would stink at living alone:

-I stay up till the wee hours of the morning because I’m too afraid to go to bed alone.

-I really don’t sit down and eat a full meal myself. I just kind of stand at the counter and nibble.

-No one to witness my junk food consumption.

-No one to witness my latte purchases…except when the credit card statements come later.

-I’ll take Miles to the movies in his jammies too close to his bedtime, just because it’s the weekend and I want to snuggle with him while eating popcorn. (I will leave half way through though, because I mean, I am still a mom.)

-I usually would watch a chick flick, or a whole season of some chick flick show on DVD, but I’m too busy working right now for that.

All right, speaking of being too busy, I need to get back to editing. Happy Thanksgiving week everybody!
