Keep It Together

Bill has officially left for camp today. I am so glad that we have plans to go visit some friends in Dallas otherwise I think we would sulk and be bored all day. It is kind of lonely packing by myself. Being responsible for all the "guy" duties before a trip along with all of my own duties kind of stinks. I am going to suck it up and actually pump my own gas for once and appreciate my sweet husband who always pumps it for me. I will clean out the car, vacuum it, and wipe everything down. I am going to humble myself and take out the trash. I am going to pack the car. I will use the GPS and drive all the way to Dallas...my first time driving long distance ever. (I once drive 1.5 hours to see my mom but that is the longest I have ever driven...I know I'm quite pathetic. ) I will be sure the dogs are settled and ready for Poppie to take care of them. Then I will start my duties of packing the suitcase, cleaning the house, changing the linens and remembering everything we need including DVD's and snacks...so we can survive the car ride. I will water my plants once more so they don't die then pass off the responsibilities to my Dad while we are gone. All while taking care of 2 kids. I am so glad God did not intend for us to be alone....I love my husband so much and appreciate all he does to keep me together.
