apart for the week :(

Joel leaves for Oklahoma tomorrow afternoon for 3 days of work
Big sad face :(
We watched Marley & Me tonight before heading up to bed - um........so now I'm sad because of the movie AND because he's leaving!
Another big sad face :(

I usually try to schedule playdates and activities to keep us (Mylin, Eme, and myself) busy and un-lonely during Joel's trips
This week I have a full day of work, a playdate, visiting with my friend's mom, bible study, pigging out with my babysitter and watching So You Think You Can Dance (have you guys seen this yet?! Joel and I stumbled across an episode in season 2 and have been hooked ever since!), and maybe a trip to Troyers - sounds pretty full, right?!
I may not add anything else to my schedule - but am ALWAYS looking for ideas since he travels 5-8 times a year!

What are your go-to's when hubby is away from home?! (or you're away from hubby?!)
A good book? Chick flicks? Girlfriend dates? Ice cream and cookies?
Please share your ideas!
