Ideas for My Date?
I’m kind of at a loss.
Chris and I have a date this Thursday - a real date. Friends are watching the kids during the best hours of the day and we don’t have to pick them up until 2:30. Because of the timing, watching a movie at the theater is out, but we can eat lunch somewhere if we want.
But I want to make it special, since we haven’t had a date close to home since before the kids were even born. Over six years ago. Our last date was in Eau Claire a couple months ago, two precious hours while friends there watched the girls. And a lot has happened since then - I feel so much better than I have, we got married and had a party, Pearl has night-weaned, and we both feel like things are changing for us, for the better. Plus I’m officially a year older, as of Sunday.
Our local kid-sitting friends live about 20 minutes from us; theoretically we could come back home and have over 3 hours of silence or shenanigans.But it seems more appropriate to mark the occasion somehow with a special event or thing or ??? I’m just at a loss. Part of the problem is that I haven’t spent any real time thinking about what I would love to do - I mean, the obvious ones are so obvious: food, sex, silence. But what makes it special?
