It's only one week ...

D left this morning (at roughly 5am) to go on a canoe trip with work for the week. He was running late because he slept in a bit, so I helped with last minute packing and made sure he had everything he needed before he ran out the door. He is excited about the trip, and I am excited for him ... but it is always so weird when he's away. Somehow our apt feels so big and empty when he's not here. I know it's only a few nights, and then he'll be home with all his smelly clothes and lots of photos to show me ... hopefully it goes by quickly : )
