This week was a talking date. No extras. Well, aside from a jar of jelly lollies :) and a cuppa.
Life has been hectic (as usual). It had been a particularly 'turbulent' week at work for Tim, with some major restructuring going on. Add a few issues with the kids, the fact that we hadn't had a chance to talk much and you get a recipe for stress.
So we sat down and just talked. Talked about the week and work and kids and home improvements and even managed a few laughs in between.
I am really loving this time each week. I know our Friday night is going to be about us. I like that. We haven't been able to do much in the way of extras along the way for one reason and another. That is okay though. I just like that it is about Glenyce and Tim for those couple of hours a week.
I am looking forward to when it gets darker, earlier at night as winter gets closer here. It usually means the kids will sleep earlier and we might be able to do some different things for date nights. I have high hopes of another photo shoot in the next couple of weeks.

Sometimes it is hard to just talk to your spouse with everything going on. Talking can be a great date.
ReplyDeleteI agree...talking and just being with each other can be so beneficial for a healthy relationship.
