Weekend Alone

I've had a weekend alone, which has been nice but surprisingly boring. Chuck took Leland to Las Vegas for his neice's baptism. I didn't go because I was in charge of a Primary activity on Sat and had church commitments on Sunday. Chuck felt bad being away from me on Mother's day, but I told him that was the best Mother's day present - not to have to do any mothering.

So here's my weekend:

Saturday - Primary Activity, took a nap, talked on the phone, went shopping at the mall, watched a movie (Chuck called to tell me how exhausted he was from taking care of Leland all day by himself)

Sunday - church, 3 hour nap, attended a baptism, made Leland a dress while watching another movie (Chuck called to tell me Leland threw up on him at 5:30am and at 9pm realized that he never fed her lunch or dinner)

Monday - slept in till 9am, talked on the phone and now blogging (Chuck called because Leland was asking him to sing a particular song and he couldn't understand her, he needed me to translate)

It has been very nice for me to just relax and I think it's been great for Chuck and Leland to have some time together. I know that Chuck appreciates all that I do, but this gives him a taste of what it's really like. They come home later today. My house seems so quiet and empty. I am very excited for them to come home.

Now it's time for us to kick in to gear with the packing. We move on Friday. I have packed a few boxes but I get frustrated because once they're packed they are too heavy for me to move. So I decided to wait till Chuck is back to help.
