Get a Grip Woman!

It’s a lovely Saturday morning and I am sat at the computer with a sniffly nose and watery eyes.  Do I have allergies? Yes, but that’s not it!  I have an empty house!  My lovely husband has gone out with Little Miss.  Daddy and daughter off on a morning adventure! 

As I waved goodbye and shut the door, I started to sob!  This is only the 2nd time in 14 months that my husband has taken Little Miss out on his own.  They’re going to a town called Corby where Hubby has to pick up some things from one of his customers.  It’s all of 45 minutes away.  They’re going to go to breakfast at McDonalds.  They’re going to have a lovely time!

Where am I?  Sat in front of the computer, furiously trying to get work done and sniffing through my tears.  It’s so hard for me to let go!  I totally trust my husband and know they will both be absolutely fine…it’s my imagination that’s the problem.  I picture all sorts of horrible things that might happen along the way.  I’m a nutbar, aren’t I?  This is one of the side effects of being a Mummy.  I was talking with a friend yesterday about how you worry so much about WHAT IF.  I’m a bad WHAT IF-er…it gets me into trouble.  I need to just live in the moment and “cross that bridge when we come to it”.  Thankfully, my husband is this for me.  He balances me…otherwise we’d have real troubles!

I know Little Miss will have a wonderful time with her Daddy and Daddy will be proud to have accomplished this mission with his daughter and Mummy will get some quiet time to do what she needs to do.  Time to SNAP OUT OF IT!  Thanks for listening.  Have you ever felt this way??
