Looking forward to a busy week

So the kids are all ready for school, the lunches are packed, the clothes are laid out, and they are in bed.   As we was driving doing our errands I heard that Allan Jackson song on the radio and I cried.  I cried again as I posted it in my journal.  Can you tell I am really starting to miss Josh?  His phone charger isn't working so his phone is about dead and he has to use his coworker's phone to call us now.  So the calls are less frequent and I can't just call him on a whim now.  I am not sure when this job will be done, till the weekend probably and IF he doesn't come home by then I may just die. I could never be a single parent!  I am thankful God has blessed me so much with Josh, even for the hard times.  I wanted to tell him when he called at dinner time how much I missed him and that I cried today but the kids was jumping up and down to say HI to Daddy.  I did tell him I had a surprise for him when he got home (my hair).   The Internet is a good distraction but no substitute.  Jess and Pat had me in stitches again tonight in the Special Interests - Journals Cafe. But now all my friends are off line, in bed as I should probably be too.  It is hard to sleep in bed alone, often I am on the couch.   Going threw some paper work and found that stuff is starting to get busy for me.  I realized tonight that I missed a training for the Cubbies for AWANA and that tomorrow evening is a Leaders meeting!  I will have to call the lady and see if I can bring the kids with me if I cant get a sitter.  Also for MIT (Mom's In Touch, a prayer group) is having a kick off meeting tomorrow night but I can't be in two places at once now can I.  There is another meeting for that Next Monday, so I will have to see if I can make that. OH and I have to sign Josh up for some leader classes for the Cub Scouts!  So as you can see this fall is already starting to get busy for me and I haven't even gotten into finding a job yet or my dental stuff!  BTW I have an appointment Tue at 4 and since Josh wont be home the older two may have to fend for themselves for an hour? *sigh* And on Thursday Zane has another dentist appointment, I will have to sign him out of school for that one.  Bummer since it's the first week and all.   I will have to take that quotes advice and say  to any more stuff this fall!!  Ya right, everyone knows what a sucker I am!  I don't mind most of the time, it's just finding sitters and getting there is the problem.   OH YA, I still haven't got my driver side door fix! UGH!! That is what I get for missing church. I was going to ask one of the men there to take a look at it.  I was also looking forward to seeing if anyone noticed my hair lol.
