After two weeks sans husband and child, I am once again not-single and not-not-a-mother. The last two weeks have been a bit surreal. I haven't lived without one or another of those boys in 6 years. It takes a little adjustment.
And adjust I did. . . .
However, during this time, I have learned a few things about myself.
Here are the top five:
1. I do not like sleeping alone.
2. A pillow is no substitute for the warmth of the right body.
3. I really really like sex.
4. Waking up to the right person in the middle of the night is more-than-nice.
5. Morning kissing before brushing teeth is not only okay, but can be freaking amazing.
The art of being Californian, it seems, is to cultivate a loose-limbed insouciance while secretly working away like a frantic ant.
