Two Weeks...

Jeremy has to go to Minneapolis for almost two weeks, starting this Sunday. I don't know if we've ever been apart for that long at a stretch (except for when the jerk broke up with me :) so it would be tough anyway, but of course the addition of Selah will make my life tougher and his lonelier. I guess it won't help that the weather there sounds like it will be terrible.

Things you can pray for us about: that I don't go nuts, that Jeremy has a good time, that his travels go smoothly, that Emily doesn't die while he is away, that Selah recovers from her current cold and is therefore nice to me...well, the list goes on.

I think I have been focusing on how difficult it will be to take care of Selah all by myself so I don't have to think about what will really be harder: missing him. I am trying to see this as an opportunity to get all of the alone time I need, but that doesn't really work, because by the time Selah goes to bed, I kind of want to just veg out, rather than whatever it is one theoretically does with special alone time! I am going to get to see Jeremy's sister in Bend, and my sister and nephew are coming up to see us for two days, so that will certainly help cheer me up!

Jeremy gets back on the evening of the 17th, so in the meantime, if you see me throw a suitcase in my car and drive away, check on Selah to make sure I at least turned on Sesame Street before I left for Mexico.
