[quote=Anonymous]My spouse has a work assignment that's going to take him away for 2 months (basically we got away with no work travel for a year, now a bunch of stuff has to be done). Because of my work and our daycare being here, the 2 year old and I are staying home. Anyone else have tips for handling this? For instance, I'm probably going to try to make dinner the night before after bedtime and I was considering getting someone in to help clean or watch kid while I do errands/chores. I could also burn one vacation day a week or biweekly to do errands and cleaning while kid is at daycare. We've had success with daily video chats with grandparents the past year but I am worried about how much kid will miss his Dad.[/quote]
