Date Night

My husband and I finally planned a date night. We've been busy with property maintenance and small house renovations, and somehow the summer is almost over. We were overdo for a dinner out, so we made a plan to go out last Saturday. The day was cloudy, but because the temperature was mild, we sat outside at one of our favorite lounges. We started off with drinks. Mine was appropriately called 'Dreaming of Vacation' with rum, pineapple, and coconut. Then my husband got a club and I had the lounges' signature pizza with bacon, roast chicken, and pineapple.


What a delicious meal! I didn't finish my pizza, but I took home two pieces to enjoy for my lunch the next day. We keep saying we need to go out more often, but sticking to that promise gets pushed aside by too many other things. Life is busy enough, so we have to put aside time for us...and date night more often.

Dee's Deliberations #6

The dreaded to-do list seems to get longer each day, and sometimes I do feel like I'm climbing a mountain to get everything done, only to have something unexpected added to the list. But, like Dee, I'm climbing that mountain with a bit of humor...or at least trying to. Now, if I could find my flip-flops, but I think I left them at the bottom of the mountain, and I am not going back down to get them. :-)
