My hubby is gone on a business trip for the night. I don't like him to go very often but when he does, I just wear my jammies until noon, watch sappy movies, eat eggs and toast for dinner, and don't bother to wash my hair or put on make-up. Then I hope nobody comes to the door.

Today I will shower, do my hair, put on make-up, gargle, and watch CNN. I still won't make a fantastic dinner though and he has come to just accept that. You take the good with the bad. You know.... love and honor, in good times and bad, forever blah, blah blah. It has worked for 40 years. Welcome home sweetie.
