Home Alone

Andrew has taken Ezra and Ruby camping to Lost Lake and this mama has stayed home. The luxury of time is a very foreign concept to me these days (years). Andrew and I are good about giving each other daily breaks, but I usually try to cram alot into those few hours, so they don't usually feel luxurious. Today feels luxurious. I have been sitting at The Ugly Mug for about two hours now: reading articles, looking at recipes, IMing with a friend, looking out the window. Sometime today I will make my way to the gym, mosey around the Goodwill, probably cook or bake something, read, rest.It all sounds so sane, and so so out of the ordinary.
I'm reading A Happy Marriage right now. It's so beautiful, and so sad. I just found this cute booklist from Alicia that I can't wait to use.

I'm thinking of my sweet boys off on their adventure, and sending them wishes for a fun and safe trip. And I'm glad to be right here, doing not much.
