gone again

in and out, that man. he got home a week ago. he is gone again today. i am realizing that i am considerably more productive when he is gone. but i suspect part of that is because having him home is fleeting lately, and i tend to push all my work to the side. Im trying to think of it in these terms: when he is "on" (typically 60-120 days) then i should feel lucky when he is home at all and not gone the whole time, right? i feel whiny. => it does seem that he gets very last minute assignments within hours of us planning out our week. =p
