Well, it is the day after Thanksgiving. And right now most people are fighting the crowds at the malls trying to get great deals on Christmas presents. While most of America has the day off today, I am sitting here alone doing what I do every day... taking care of Kaelyn... while Jason is at work.
There are a few things that I don't like about Jason's job. Both of which are bothering me today. The first one is that while most of America has off, he is working. I guess death doesn't understand that it is the day after Thanksgiving, and most people have off. The second thing is on-call. Jason got paged at 5:30 this morning to go out on a visit. So, not only am I alone on the day after Thanksgiving, but I have been alone since about 6:00 this morning. I'm not mad at Jason at all, it is the nature of the job. But it still stinks!
So, why is it that today is harder than any other average day? I am still taking care of our beautiful daughter, I am still taking care of the house? I don't usually have an issue with this. I do this every day with no problem. So why does my mind know that every one else has the day off today except my husband? I don't understand!
It isn't like I don't have things to be happy for! Jason and I put up Christmas decorations last night (and I am working on some more today), and one of my best friends from Chicago, Kathi, will be here tonight. So... I don't know why I am stuck with the day after Thanksgiving blues!
