Brandon is gone Elk Hunting and I'm officially a Hunting Widow for the week. I didn't grow up in a family that was very, oh how do you say it, animal abusive. Just kidding, no but really, my dad wasn't a hunter at all. So now that I am married to an avid, I'm not sure if that's a strong enough word to describe Brandon but you get the point, hunter I find myself always bored.
Last year I went to my sister Kim's house in Rigby, Idaho and that helped keep my mind away. Well, I spent too much money shopping and lost a pregnancy, but it was still a good trip! My husband's Aunt, Randa, says that every time Kelly draws Hunting tags, she draws Shopping tags. I think I really like that concept!!
Another one of my sisters, DJ, is making the trip to Rigby with me this year. Due to a full week of me having too many meetings, I won't be able to leave until Friday. Brandon gets home Saturday, so I'm trying to decide if I should even go this year. Maybe I just need to buck-up and be a single mom for the week. Most of you know that I've been divorced already and did the whole single mother thing before - NOT THAT FUN - so for me to go back to that lifestyle is just crazy.
Yeah, Yeah, I know, it's only a week!!! But seriously - I kinda like to have someone else be the one to lock the doors, turn out the lights and stoak the fire at night. I think I'm going to go find me something entertaining to do right now, maybe watch some reruns of the Office...that's always worth a laugh or two!
To all the Hunting Widows out there - call me - lets go do something!!
