look who's here

I was in utter surprise. M&M's lunch boxes, truffles from Godiva and Winnie the Pooh pasta. the boys buzzing with compulsive elation. of course, he's here for only one day. of course, I have to wash his socks. but the scent of his unexpected presence appeases the multitude of conflicting emotions that were balking my existence lately. like butter to my bread. sharpening my senses. atoning for my faults. making life delectable again.

until he leaves for another 10 days.

but for now he's here. he's home.

OH YAY! Enjoy your day with your man. Do naughty things with the chocolates OR take a really long nap and make him chase the boys. Do whatever makes you feel restored, really. One of these days, I'll show up with my girls and we'll wail around town chasing our crazies and try not to fall apart together. Weeeeee!
