It's just hard having him away all day, day after day. It's astounding to me that the by-yourself-all-day, day-after-day routine is normal life for most stay-at-home parents... I find it so lonely when he's not here, I'm so used to him being here with me most of the time.
But I do know the box sets have to get done, and the longer he stays at the studio when he's there, the less days he'll have to go into the studio.
