But! I'm putting my big girl pants on, Face Timing with the kids and Murdock morning, noon, and night, and spending this week investing in my marriage. You guys know how tough in can be, especially when you're trying to stretch your time being a mama, an employee, a business owner, a friend, a sister, an aunt, a daughter, etc. and a wife. Plus, there are only so many hours a day to work, run errands, work out, go to appointments….
Anyways {this is getting pretty windy!} we have spent the week doing things we used to. On Sunday, after we dropped the kids with Gram and Papa, we went to the casino {a favorite activity of Adam's}. On Monday, after work, the gym, and dinner, we went to the little bar up the road that we used to go to when we first met {another favorite place of Adam's}. On Tuesday, we went to the gym together in the morning, I played hookie, and Adam brought home sushi from a local restaurant. We finished the night with a couple good movies, popcorn, & wine in front of the fireplace. On Wednesday, we worked out at the gym, then I ran errands, and came home and enjoyed wine, chocolate, and a good book while soaking in a bubblebath. Afterwards, I gave myself a mani/pedi. {a favorite activity of mine}. On Thursday, we went out to dinner at a new restaurant {Blue Tomato for the locals} and out for dessert {one of my favorite things to do} at a Sbrocco.
Although I'm missing my kids something fierce, it's been a really, really good week taking time to slow down and enjoy some quality time with my hot hubby. I'm good about meeting the needs of my children, but I really need to work on meeting the needs of my husband. For him {and me!} that's quality time. No phones {him} no laptop {that's me!}, just us. Chatting and dreaming, like we used to! :)
