history: I'm so sad because my family left today on a trip without me and they'll be gone for a week! My family just left on a trip for a week and I had to stay back to work.  Oh that's too bad. How long before they get home? They'll be gone for 7 days and 6 nights! Oh well hopefully it goes quick for you but at least they will have a good trip which is nice!
current: That's so true! I think they will have fun but I will miss them being all alone in the house. 
next: I hope it goes okay and for you the time passes fast!
