I could get used to this
The girls left yesterday for 12 days with my Dad. For some reason, I'm more worried about them enjoying their time up there. It's not the first time they've made this visit without me, and they've always done fine. I also felt a little guilty over how much I was looking forward to them going. I seem to be getting over that.
They called yesterday when they got to my dad's, and both kids were chipper and happy and not at all homesick. I'm sure that will come, too, but it usually hits them for just a few minutes and then they perk back up again.
In the meantime, what I thought was a short list of things to get done while they're out of my hair has turned into quite a list. It might be difficult to fit it all in, especially since "Sleep in as late as possible" is at the top of each day's list! In the day and a half they've been gone, we've already gotten service done on my van, had a problem diagnosed (the part is on backorder), taken down the Christmas tree and put the loot away, and cleaned up an ocean of cat pee. AND we've had time to be lazy and watch a movie.

With the exception of cleaning up the cat pee, sounds like a great time.
