Back Home

This was the sunset last night from Brooke's house. It was absolutely beautiful. I didn't have my tripod with me so I didn't get a sharp photo like I wanted to.

I left Brooke's house at 9 on the dot this morning and I got home at 1:45. I had a great drive home. I didn't hit any traffic and driving through Atlanta was like a breeze. I was glad, too, especially since I was by myself.

I cried for quite some time this morning. I tried to hold it in until I left Brooke but I didn't make it. I boohooed for a good 30 miles until I realized I might better dry it up and improve my driving. I was having a hard time seeing.

It's still JUST as hard now as it was the first time she left for school. It just kills me to be apart from her. I thought surely by now --after almost three years--that it would get better, but it doesn't. I don't know if I take it harder than any other mother, but it really makes me feel like my heart might break into pieces. And as I've said before, I don't know what I'll do with myself when Cain leaves this year. Ugh...

I was a horrible friend to my best friend this weekend. She was depending on me to help her and I fell through. I feel like such a heel and I hope I didn't damage our friendship beyond repair. :( I've GOT to be a better friend. :( Pray for me on that aspect of my life.

Marshall and Cain got home a little after I did so we've been out there cleaning the camper out and now I'm about ready to head to bed. Seriously, I don't know the last time I was this sleepy. I think I'm going to rest on the couch for a bit.

Have a beautiful night!
