This past week Kappa Alpha Psi (Nate's frat) celebrated their 100 year anniversary in Indianapolis. The whole city was Krimson and Kreme...and FILLED with tourists. I knew that the hubby would be hanging out with his chapter all weekend, so I planned some fun for myself too. I managed to have not one, but TWO girls' nights out and it was a blast!
Saturday morning was the parent-student orientation for Camp M.D. - the program I have been preparing for/coordinating all summer. There are 22 high school students in our class and most of them - with the exception of a few - are interested in the health care professions. We have a VERY FULL three weeks planned for them including: CPR certification, hospital/professional school tours, SAT prep, and MD shadowing. It has only been two days of class, and I already feel that motherly attachment to my students. They are great kids and I know it's going to be a great time :-) You will definitely be hearing more about our fun times later...
Sunday, Little Nate left to spend the week with the hubby's mom in Michigan. He's been having a good time visiting everyone and playing with his two younger cousins. I think that the fact that I have been home with him everyday, all day, this summer, made the separation harder for me this time around. I was already in a semi-emotional funk, but this just sent me over the edge...picking up all his toys did not help much in stopping the tears...I am still missing my little pumpkin like crazy, but thank goodness for my job this week to help me pass the time.
The hubby and I are going to try and enjoy this child-free week the best we can. Hopefully we can get a few dates in - we have a bunch of restaurant and even some movie certificates to cash in as an added incentive. Yesterday, we went out to dinner and then sat and watched the water at the Canal where we got married. It was really nice :-)
Well, that's all for now!
Ciao!
