Adoring Husband arrives home today, after five days and four nights in Sydney.
His lovely Mum turned 94 years young and he went down to spend her birthday with her and to make sure the Nursing Home was taking good care of her.
Unfortunately, Sydney had torrential rain for the whole time that he was there, so she wasn't able to leave the nursing home and he even missed out on watching his beloved Cronulla Sharks play football on Monday night. He did go to the ground but it was just too wet to watch comfortably so he jumped in a taxi and ended up watching the game in the comfort of his motel room.
I think five days and four nights is the perfect amount of time for couples to be apart two or three times a year.
Catch up on some reading. Listen to your favourite music. Spend time in the kitchen and cook your favourite food, and then eat it any time of the day or night that suits you. Watch your favourite TV shows. Have a nap on the couch with the fan directly on you. Go to bed and let the sound of rain on the roof lull you to sleep (instead of the sound of your husband snoring hehehe). Close up the house and sit enjoy the sounds of silence.
It's just long enough to enjoy some solitary time, and then look forward to your husband's return.
His plane landed about twenty minutes ago, so I am expecting him home some time in the next thirty minutes.
I have absolutely and thoroughly enjoyed my five days and four nights of complete freedom and I am very much looking forward to him returning today.
So welcome home my darling ... a short absence really does make the heart grow fonder :o)
