I'm tired, sick, and lonely...

It's been a long, long week. Brandon has been gone for the vast majority of the week...and I've had both girls pretty much 24/7 by myself. I have the greatest respect for single parents now. I always did...but now, I really do. I mean...really, really do. I don't know how they do it without some relief. I love my kids but I really need a night off. I've had them from breakfast in the morning to dinner at night and then, it's the night waking up. That's what kills me I think. The nightime disruptions. I do not deal well without sleep. I really don't. I am SO thankful that for both of my girls I was in a place where someone could watch them while I slept for a few extra hours! Lord willing the next one that comes will give us the same blessing :P Not that I would mind having a baby out here. I would be fine and I'm sure we would work it out....but I want my mom to be there. I want my sister to be able to see the new one as soon as she can get there. I want my dads to see baby too. And my in-laws too. I don't want them to have to drive 24 hours or take a plane :(
I miss being able to drive home. I miss my family. I miss everything except working full time. I miss being able to walk to my dad's house and just say hi.
I miss home.
