What a Difference a Date Makes

A and I see each other every day.  We even talk every day.  Sometimes though, we forget to be with each other.  As I am sure it is with many relationships, we get so caught up in the goings-on of life that we forget to just enjoy our time.  A and I have been having a lot of money discussions and that usually leds to some tension.  Throw in a busy week for A and a nonstop weekend for me, and you have some stress that sneaks in.

On Sunday, we had a date.  It was nothing big.  We just went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner with a gift card from A's mom.  It was nice wonderful.  I had forgotten what is was like to just enjoy time with my husband.  I feel like our date restored balance to our marriage by releasing some of the tension that builds up as the demands of life pile on.
