This really isn't normal for me. Actually, the only time I ever really feel ultra-lonely is in early pregnancy. When I was pg with Jabez and didn't know it, I had a major meltdown because DH was going to band practice and "abandoning" me.
He stayed home. 
Anyway, today I had some similar feelings about DH going to have a guys' night with his band. It's not something he does a lot, and he's actually been spending less time with the band and more with us lately, as they're kind of on a break (not that he normally spends most of his time with them; he normally has practice twice a week, and when they're playing shows, that can take up another 1-3 nights a week, but not always; there haven't been any shows since July, so that's not an issue right now).
Okay, I'm obviously feeling really rambly right now too.

So, I didn't have a meltdown, but I just felt really sad that he was leaving, and something was really making me feel lonely about being stuck inside allll day with a two-year-old (we can't really go outside right now because the air quality is so bad from the fires; the sky is brown and there has been ash falling on our lawn all day). I convinced my mom to come over and keep us company for a while, so she should be here soon.
On the flipside, I also feel like going nowhere. I just want to stay home and take care of the house, and do home-stuff. I'm guessing this is some kind of end-of-pg behavior that I either never had with DS, or just don't remember. For example, tomorrow night we're supposed to go to a birthday party for BIL, and I am just totally dreading it. I feel like I'm just going to be dragging my heels the whole way. I don't know if it's a pg thing, or if it's just because, even though a lot of the people there will be our friends/aquaintances, we don't seem have anything in common with any of them anymore because we have a family, and we care about family stuff, kwim? I don't really know how to explain it...I just know that I sure felt like an old lady tonight when I complained to DH, "It doesn't even start until eight o'clock!
:" 
Anyway, lots of rambling from me. Is anyone else sharing my feelings?
