Ugh

I'm officially alone. Julie left at 5a to head back home for a long weekend. She took our oldest dog with her. I've never stayed alone in this house, a d she doing a guest performance with her old drag troupe. It's the first show I've missed EVER! I keep crying, I'm pathetic I know. I wish some of you lived in Denver.

You aren't pathetic. Remember how you said if we could trade places you would be me for a day? Okay, let me help you out and tell you what I would do.

Step 1 - remember that this is just for a long weekend. And then get sad that it's only for a long weekend - I kid, I kid. :-p
Step 2 - order or go buy your favorite food. The food that Julie doesn't necessarily like. Or just the food that you don't get often enough.
Step 3 - DVR your favorite tv shows. Even if they are re-runs. Or go to the redbox and pick out the movies you've always wanted to see (and perhaps Julie hasn't).

Now that you have the supplies and are at home remember these things:
- leave the dirty dishes in the sink a few hours longer than normal.
- sleep on whichever side of the bed you want
- turn the heater up or down as you desire
- walk the dogs. Or don't.
- do chores on your timeline. Don't want to vacuum? Don't. Want to do all your chores tonight so you have the rest of the weekend free? Do that.

Other random things:
- Take yourself to breakfast. Grab the Sunday (or whatever day) paper, go to a local breakfast hot spot, get a coffee booth and enjoy. Read, drink coffee, and have someone else make breakfast for you.
- Drive her car. Do you have two cars? Did she take one with her? Oh well, that's probably out. But always drive the other car whenever possible.

((hugs)) Rikki. The first time alone in a place always sucks, but just think, the "first time" only happens once!

Two, I liked your answer so much I posted a spin-off. Hope you don't mind!
