Here and Not

My son left for the third and final term of grade 8 yesterday.

I woke up today and noticed a few things…

When he’s home;

I can’t find the TV remote control.

Dry noodle crumbs are all over the sofa and rug… He snacks on uncooked noodles.

Art supplies and markers are visible… They are everywhere.

There’s a frying pan in the sink every time… he’s the omelette master.

The dispenser bottle runs out quickly and there’s always a cup on the top.

My fancy throw pillows are scattered all over the place

…

When he’s not home;

I miss him
