Solo Time

Tomorrow my husband leaves for Michigan, to spend a week with his daughters. And his ex. His back is in spasm already. It's a longer trip than usual, and vaults me back to the ancient rhythms of single-mothering. My daughter's boyfriend just left for college and so maybe this will give us some grounding time, help her land back in this small environment (now that she's not constantly at his).
I have quite a list evolving, of how many ways I want to nest in my new space. I need to find my work neurons, to get the seminar paperwork and details going. Not too many patients scheduled after tomorrow, so I think I'll get that time. And I want girlfriend time too.
So here's to space and timelessness.
