Drew is home. He arrived just after 1am on Thursday morning and we’ve been spending the day doing the usual “getting to know you” things again. Sure, he was only gone a month and we’re used to much longer separations but usually I’m the one that’s returning home – not him.

As exhausted from travel as I was a year ago, I’m just itching to travel again soon. Since there’s no travel in my new job I guess I’ll have to save all my pennies and try to fit a vacation in there somewhere.

While he was away I asked Drew to look for new PJ’s for me. My current winter ones were on their last legs – the flannel has nearly worn through – and I thought he might find something on sale while he was state-side. Not only did he shop and find PJ’s I’d happily wear in winter but he also didn’t try to sneak in some see through contraption 😉

I was so proud of him until I unwrapped the package. In his wanders to find me the perfect PJ’s, he didn’t double-check the size tags. So, now I’m the proud owner of a small (6-8, which I’m not) set of cat PJ’s that would have been perfect for the chilly nights of spring and fall and an XXL (22-24) pair of red flannels. By checking the size chart on the tags, a L would have been perfect! He also managed to pick up a “remove before flight” sleepshirt from the base PX in a one size fits all that looks like it’s more than roomy enough.

He did pick up a nice brown and white skirt in the perfect size so not all is lost.

On the other hand, we can probably fit the both of us in the XXL jammies. That might be fun to try.
