Is Spring Coming?




Our snow is melting. I am so looking forward to spring. I like Winter and all, but Spring is just so nice. When it's not raining I try to get out for a walk. It feels so nice to get fresh air without freezing. I know the kids like getting out too. When I get out like that, I feel so much better, and I have so much more energy. Yesterday Greg and I got to go on a date. It was so exciting to have a break from both kids. We went for lunch and then went to a movie, although we didn't get to finish the movie as we had to be back for a certain time, it was heavenly to be out and not have to think about the kids in the back, make sure there is food and diapers etc... around. I love my kids and I love to be with them (most of the time :) But it was so nice to have a break. This was the first break from both of them I think in about a year. I've had breaks from one at a time a few times, but not both at once. So yeah, it was nice. On Saturday I am going over to a ladies house from our Church. We have wanted to get together for the longest time, we just never arranged it and she called yesterday evening and she invited me over along with a few other women from our Church for tea/coffee/dessert and to just have a nice evening together. The nice thing is that she lives about a 5 minute walk from our place. I am looking forward to it as I don't get out a whole lot. I get together with one of my other friends but between school and schedules it doesn't seem to happen a whole lot. So this came at a really good time as I have been feeling a bit lonely. Although it could have to do with monthly things as well :( (Sorry if that's too much info for you) I find I get more emotional at that time and tend to dwell more on the negative side, at least more than usual. Anyway, I am going to go. Greg and Kaitlyn went to a movie with a friend of his from work and his daughter and William is sleeping. I was going to clean house, but I think I'll just tidy up, figure out dinner and then just veg or maybe knit or a bath, that sounds nice too. The house is sooooo peaceful, it's nice.

Nights out away from kids are good. So are date nights with hubby. I'm glad to hear you get one of each every once in a while. It helps make you feel normal again, eh?
