He arrived just after 1am on Thursday morning and we&#8217;ve been spending the day doing the usual &#8220;getting to know you&#8221; things again. Sure, he was only gone a month and we&#8217;re used to much longer separations but usually I&#8217;m the one that&#8217;s returning home &#8211; not him.<\/p>\n<p>As exhausted from travel as I was a year ago, I&#8217;m just itching to travel again soon. Since there&#8217;s no travel in my new job I guess I&#8217;ll have to save all my pennies and try to fit a vacation in there somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>While he was away I asked Drew to look for new PJ&#8217;s for me. My current winter ones were on their last legs &#8211; the flannel has nearly worn through &#8211; and I thought he might find something on sale while he was state-side. Not only did he shop and find PJ&#8217;s I&#8217;d happily wear in winter but he also didn&#8217;t try to sneak in some see through contraption \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>I was so proud of him until I unwrapped the package. In his wanders to find me the perfect PJ&#8217;s, he didn&#8217;t double-check the size tags. So, now I&#8217;m the proud owner of a small (6-8, which I&#8217;m not) set of cat PJ&#8217;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 &#8220;remove before flight&#8221; sleepshirt from the base PX in a <em>one size fits all <\/em>that looks like it&#8217;s more than roomy enough.<\/p>\n<p>He did pick up a nice brown and white skirt in the perfect size so not all is lost.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, we can probably fit the both of us in the XXL jammies. That might be fun to try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drew is home.
