Journal of the Summer Wife, Day 1

I have been Summer wife for a whopping 24 hours. I don't know if this day is an omen for the summer or just the normal way of things, but I'm a bit nervous.

First night - hubs and kids are gone, I get uninterrupted TV time while I decompress from the single hardest work day in memory. Yay! My MIL even took care of me with appetizer dinner and chocolate pie. Hubs came home running fever and mumbling incoherently. Hmmm, fun while it lasted.

First late night - slept in bits and fits while checking for fever, getting meds, and having to pee

First morning - stayed in PJs until unmentionable time and watched Netflix while Hubs slept and kids gorged on computer fun. Not too bad, except for that niggling headache and press of things that need doing

First afternoon - packed son #dos for preteen camp and heading to The Store with said son and a headache that won't go away.


We shall see what trouble will befall us there. Or maybe what unexpected blessing might await at the Mart of Wals.

Here is a picture to make the post more fun.
