Last night was Summit’s first night away from home. He spent the night at Ben’s parent’s and I think that he would not have gone there if up to me alone!! As I packed his bag and got all of his stuff ready to go, I became emotional and if it weren’t for all the people saying “its for his good” or something like that, he’d be with me right now. I haven’t called my in-laws yet today, I feel like I don’t miss him too much right now but if I heard him on the phone I’d become sad again, isn’t that horrible?? I didn’t miss him this morning at all, I’ll be honest, as I slept in and just laid in bed. I’m not one of those people that wake up in the morning and then just get up. I would probably lay in bed 12-15 hours a day if I could. I love to sleep! It had been a hard week so this day was needed.
So our big night out? Well, we crammed as much as possible into the hours following Summit’s departure. Dinner at Bizy’s (b/c we had some good coupons to use) ice cream at Cold Stone with our last minute friends, Josh and Katie, (in which I was the only person to get anything- thanks for that) and then on to the movies. (I had a free movie coupon and Ben got in for $2 because he is in law enforcement…) The good news was that he didn’t gripe at me about getting a bottled water b/c everything else was so cheap!
On a completely random note, I miss the days where a man dressed up in women clothes was the height of comedy and clean humor! I’m watching AMC and laughing my butt off at Don Knotts in a widow’s dress and veil…
