Some Quiet Stillness

I'm sitting at my computer in a perfectly quiet house.  Hubby is at work.  Birdie and Bug are at school.  I'm completely alone!  I'm preparing to leave on my yearly Regnum Christi weekend retreat at Marytown.  I'm excited, but just like every year that I go (this is my third now), I feel a certain reservation.  I'm not sure where it comes from. 

Am I sad to leave my kids?
Am I worried about hubby burning holding down the fort?
Is it just 'you know who' trying to psyche me out of spending time with Christ?
Or am I scared of what He is going to ask of me as I sit in 36 hours of silence with only Him?

All of the above.
