On a Three-Day Lonely

There are times when I hate my job. It's been three days since I've seen my kids because I'm four states away in a hotel. It's a nice hotel, but it's not home. I get to fly home tonight and I will be thrilled to sit in my own lazyboy and sleep in my own bed.

I miss my husband's touch, Jakey's funny little face and Marissa's dancing to her Sesame CDs. I miss cooking lasagna for my family, watching CSI with my hubby, and taking a long shower in my own shower.

I know many people travel on their jobs, and if they have families, they experience loneliness as I am today. It's part of the price we pay for our jobs and paychecks. But I hate it!

Thank God I don't have to have these three-day separations very often. I'm a mommy who misses her babies!

About "Spy Sally" - Mom, and Private Investigator

The hectic hurry-up-and-wait life of a female investigator who is also a mother. Working in seven states, she is often away from her young children: one of the downsides of the job.

She loved Nancy Drew books as a child, Agatha Christie as a teen, and always wanted to be either a police officer, CSI agent, or an investigator. Her dream came true. But it's not an easy life.

The fact that she's a female enables her to obtain information a male might never get. And because she is so friendly, people open up to her, never suspecting she is working for a client.

According To The Web, What Is a Private Investigator (P.I.)?
