No Kids in the House...Weird!

My daughter is still in Hawaii and it is very quiet here. You would think that I would be out running around, going out, and having fun, but deadlines await and I have been busy trying to make them. So, what is different without my daughter? Everything! It is quiet here, very quiet! The biggest difference for me...

...is the fact that I don't have to worry about what time it is. My day is usually centered around school bells, dinner time and bedtime, so this is different. I am finding out a lot about my natural schedule, something I haven't had for 6 years now, and it is very interesting to me to notice when I work best. And it isn't late at night after my daughter is asleep, that is just something I have had to do. I really work best if I can work straight through the morning, get out for a walk, run or ride in the afternoon and work when I get back. I have 4 more days where I can do this, so I better make the most of my alone time, because...

my daughter will be back on Mother's Day...the best present yet!
