It's final

If you're still looking for the birth story..you're going to have to keep waiting. I have something else major major major on my mind right now..something that takes priority over something that happened a few days ago..and I'm not going to forget anytime soon.

Orion leaves on Sunday.

shit.

The thing we had "planned" or whatever to maybe get him to stay for a few more weeks..fell through this morning. While I knew him leaving so soon was a possibility..we were pretty damn sure this other thing would get him to stay for a few weeks. Nope.

I suddenly feel all kinds of overwhelmed. I have this new person I'm adjusting to..and this toddler who needs so much from me..and fuck!!!!! Why can't I just have one more week with O?? Why only 2 more days????

I'm thrilled he was able to be here for the birth..because we all know how terrified I was to do all of that on my own..however, I have a new life to adjust to..sleeping schedules to fix (yeah..Maddox thinks nighttime is playtime)..and now I have the pleasure of doing EVERYTHING on my own..so damn fast.

woo fucking hoo.

Someone get me a god damned drink.

Aw geeze... this is one of those times when you wish you had something to say to make someone feel better; but you know there's nothing you could possibly say that can make that person feel better. I don't know what else to tell you other than I'm so sorry that O has to leave so soon; or that he has to leave at all for that matter. I wish we lived closer to each other so I could help out in any way possible, even though I know it wouldn't be the same as having your husband there. I was completely serious about flying out to visit, if you ever feel like having company. I would like to visit for a few days, and maybe give you a little break and a few minutes to yourself. Maybe you wont be ready to have company any time soon, but hey, the offer is still out there! Let me know :)
