PJO left for a business trip yesterday. He's in London until Tuesday night, then New York until Friday night. It's the first time he's gone away since we moved in to our new apartment and the first time since I've been pregnant. While I always miss him while he's gone, I like to think of myself as a pretty independent girl. He's the more sentimental and needy one of the two of us, and I tend to enjoy alone time and keeping the apartment clean and organized for more than a day at a time. But this time I really miss him. It seems so lonely and quiet here. Several times a day, I catch myself thinking that I can't wait to tell him something or cuddle with him or just see him. Maybe I do have some crazy pregnancy hormones running around inside me and I was just oblivious to it before. Or maybe, just maybe, he's making me into more of a sentimental, needy woman.
I also have noticed that I get more paranoid about him traveling now. I have never been afraid of flying (I think I first flew when I was 6 months old). But nevertheless, I am sitting on my computer, typing his flight number in the flight tracker several times to make sure his plane made it there safely.
I should be more productive while he's gone... I have no husband to entertain or make sure I spend my time with, so I can selfishly do all the work I want. But all I want to do is cuddle on the couch with my cats and watch movies, eating popcorn and drinking hot chocolate. I sound like I'm really depressed, but I think it's more that I just really don't want to do any reading. I guess it's about that time though... Fed tax of business entities isn't going to read itself.

cuddling on the couch with popcorn and a movie is our favorite kind of date! Definately sounds like some kind of pregnancy hormones :) But I know how hard it is to miss your husband...maybe rent a ton of chick flicks (movies that you can't get him to watch with you) or have a fun girl's night in!
I hope the week goes by fast for you!
