I'm a bit sad today, it will be worse tomorrow...

So my Mom came from Canada and spent 6 weeks with us this summer. I haven't seen her since Christmas, I won't see her again until Christmas. She's pretty much my best friend, and the one I can lean on when things get crazy. She's my mom and we're super close.

She's leaving tomorrow and the husband is back at work as well so I'll be all alone and it's killing me, so I'm asking ever so nicely for the A14 ladies to cheer me up because I know I'm going to need it tomorrow while I'm sitting alone in my house with my beautiful daughter trying not to lose it and cry the whole day.

Thanks and sorry if you thought this was going to be about something else.

  • I'm sorry that you are already feeling lonely. Just know you will do a great job and try to look at the positive, you'll be getting some special alone time with your daughter! Hang in there!
  • My mom Lives 13 hrs away and she was here for an extended weekend this past week. It sucks so much saying good by and feeling so alone, I understand completely. Sending hugs !
  • I second trying to plan an outing, whether it be a trip to target or going on a long walk.  My mom didn't stay with me, but I felt the same way when my DH went back to work after his 1 week off.  I so desperately wanted him to stay home because I was scared to do it alone.

    I ended up surprising myself and felt really good after a few days doing it alone.  You may feel the same way and enjoy it more than you think.

    Big hugs, that is hard :( Definitely get out of the house if you can, anything to keep you distracted!

  • It's hard to lose your supports. I miss my mom terribly now that I'm on the other side of the world. I get out daily with LO even if it's just to go to the hotel brunch our walk around the pool, it's too damn hot here to do much more. Get out when you can and enjoy your time with LO. I often talk to him like an adult, I'm sure he thinks I'm nuts!
  • Hang in there. The biggest thing will be getting into a new routine, so have fun in making it just how you want it! Here's something to hopefully give you a laugh! The other day my three year old climbed into bed with me and said momma, there's a fucking bird in my mouth.....umm...looks like we need to clean up the language a bit in our house! Also, we were working in the garden and I noticed he was doing his potty dance so I asked if he had to go. He whipped it and and pronounced, I'm gonna pee in the garden to help it grow big and strong! Kids say the darnedest things!
  • Thank you ladies, today has been hard. Between A waking up at 330 this morning and staying up until 340 this afternoon and my mom flying home. I've been a hot mess all day long.

    Some times I love Sweden but on days like today I just want to move home and be close to my family again.

    All the kind words made it a little less awful though. And I did gt out for a walk, three times, mostly trying to get A to sleep and walk the dog of course.
