At the end of yet another very busy week, I am grateful to be able to slow the pace a little by snatching five minutes to write a blog post.
I have a date with my husband this evening.
I love him an awful lot; to smithereens in fact, and going out, just the two of us, for dinner, is sublime.
I am grateful for this love we have, and eternally grateful to friends who offer to babysit.
We will recharge our respective batteries, he and I, and top one another up with energy and laughter and gossip, and perhaps a little wine. We will untangle the weeks we've had, and catch up with all of each others various goings on.
We will give anecdotes as gifts to one another and share our wins.
We will, as we do, thrash out issues, plan, anticipate, and verbalise dreams, together. We will exhale and play footsies and flirt, as we sink into the weekend...
As always, I am grateful to him, that lovely husband of mine...


Sounds delish! Have a great night! The Geege and I were due for one of these too tonight only Sister B (aka babysitter) is unwell so we are having a date at home instead :-) x

ReplyDeleteThis is one thing I enjoy doing with my husband as well. We always go out, have drinks and talk, and I am grateful that we never run out of things to talk about. Beautiful post.
