On Sunday, Matthew found out the Stake needed a few more chaperons for the Grad Bash celebration at Disneyland. It was completely paid for, so why not?
He left about 4:30 in the afternoon yesterday and didn't get home until 11:00 this morning. As an avid Disneyland fan/freak (i say it with all the love in my heart!) he, of course, had a great time. Me...not so much.
I DID really have a great time spending the evening with my folks and two of my sisters. Pooka curled up on the floor next to Auntie Ambie and watched Wall-E all the way through - I think that's her first complete movie.
It was really nice until we got home. I absolutely HATE sleeping alone. I didn't even own my own bed until I was around 6. #1 the folks couldn't afford it (with 8 kids, few could). #2 they had no where to put it. So up until then, I switched between 2 of my sisters' beds. Needless to say, I have always had issues sleeping alone. Call me psychologically messed up, or whatever you'd like.
I really thought I'd be ok with Kipper, though. As long as there is another "person" in the room, I'm ok. I'm sure I would have been fine if the ruddy dog would have just gone to sleep! He kept looking around for Matthew, like he couldn't possibly go to sleep without him. 2am was when he finally shut up and stopped trying to kiss me or eat the cat. Then my lovely daughter woke me up around 6 am asking me if I had seen her daddy.
I think God is trying to prepare me for this second child. Problem is, I'm 100% sure I'm failing miserably.

I slept alone for all my life and now I have issues.
Though I do love cuddling with my puppy. She's a cuddle bug by nature.
I know what you mean about not being able to sleep without hubby around...although, i slept my whole life in my own bed, but i ALWAYS wished i had a sister to share with..Luckily, when aaron's out of town i have my two muts that share my bed, but they are VERY well behaved. lol
