I don't mind being alone during the week when DH has odd work trips - there is a routine to keep me busy. On the other hand, I hate it when DH is away over weekends as that is meant to be our family time and also time where he gets to do stuff with DD. luckily for me, it's not an often thing, we cope fine when he's away - but I love it when he's back!

That being said, I do like 'my' time.
