Home Alone

It is a milestone in the Bowen house, even more so than the mouse episode: I, Brittany Bowen, stayed home alone (with the kids) while my husband went on a camp out. In fact, I was really alone, I didn't even have the Andersens in the back yard, they were away. Some may say, No Big Deal, may I say YES BIG DEAL!!! This is the first time I have stayed home all night long by myself while Brandon was away, we have been married for 3 1/2 years.
I should have prefaced this blog with the fact that I am dreadfully afraid of the dark, especially the dark in the middle of nowhere. And, I probably should also tell you I am the biggest scaredy cat you will ever meet. But I was brave. I made it all through the night and only cried once. Of course, I sang primary songs until 2 in the morning but that was just to keep my vivid imagination in check and I didn't go to bed until 12:30 so that's not so bad. We had a couple of scary moments (one of which involving, shall we say, very romantic cats under our trailer. They knocked alot of stuff over in the process and scared the pee out of me at 5:00 am - no not literally, I didn't really pee my pants, but I could have)
Anyway, I am very proud of myself! So much so, I think everyone should send me congratulatory presents. GO ME!!!!
By the way, I'm not home alone anymore and so no scary creeps should come and get me because my husband is huge and he could hurt you: BAD!...
