The life of a traveling spouse isn't easy. Neither is being the one who stays behind. The most amazing things happen, right when your partner walks out that door! This is a chronicle of those moments. Poignant, hilarious, disgusting, and frustrating. It's all here. Email submissions to brynasampey (at) gmail (dot) com.

Only When You're Gone: The Vomitorium
So our friends came to stay last night, and their baby got sick, and vomited all through the
night. Poor baby!
While washing the laundry that is the inevitable result of a sick child, I came across sheets and blankets from when our own child got sick in bed, nearly two weeks ago.
I remember distinctly you saying: "I got it!" when that happened...and thinking how lucky I was that you were home to help me! What a guy to wash the vomit-laundry at 2 am!
Hm.
I can't decide if you're lucky that I was already elbows-deep in vomit-laundry when I made this discovery, or if we're not speaking. I haven't unwrapped the surprise, yet. If there's mold... you're in the doghouse.
-Your loving spouse.
