Gone, Mama, gone–part 2

Posted on March 6, 2008 - Filed Under Uncategorized

That’s right, Erin’s off on another adventure. She leaves Sunday for the great state of Oklahoma for a work-related conference; she’ll be gone until Friday afternoon. Despite what I said about people should confidence in a child’s father being able to care for him/her while the mother’s away, I will freely admit this next week is going to be very challenging for me. On top of not being anywhere near used to caring for Maggie on my own, I have a set of papers due back to my students on Tuesday and a significant project for a class I am taking due two days after Erin returns. In addition, things at work are not good. So, it’s going to be a bit tough and definitely one of those of those timeframes in which we sometimes find ourselves in which one’s mentality must be, ‘I will do what needs done the best I can and the rest will wait.’ That said, know that if you call to ‘check in on us,’ you will probably not get me on the phone nor a call back—-I’ll simply be too busy.

The good thing is Erin being able to not only get sometime away from a ton of responsibilities but getting out of this stupid little town of ours. It’ll be good for her.

    Good luck my friend… stay away from the krunk juice until Mama gets back and you’ll be able to handle the load.
