Gone

What is it like not having someone around? Well I figured out that the things I leave sitting around are still there when I come back in the room. The kids are asking where their dad is and all I can tell them is that he is in the desert. I got out in the yard yesterday and cut the grass. I think that is the first time I have cut grass in years, and I can't say how many. The clothes do not magically get put up. The dishes do not magically get put in the cabinets. I guess I have to learn a whole new routine. Got to get used to it.
