I am Thankful Day 20

Today I am thankful for date nights. Unfortunately they are few and far between. There always seems to be something that gets in the way.  The kids were out most of this evening helping friends of ours move, so that was one obstacle that was easily taken care of. Or lack of energy to get off the couch. Sometimes it is much easier to just stay home. That excuse was dissolved because Bill had to work, so sleeping was not an option. This evenings  "date" was not something that the average couple would call fun, but the whole point is to spend time together. We had dinner out and then brought dinner over to Bill's parents to make sure that they would eat. We also went over to check on them. I enjoyed that time we were able to spend together however unconventional or brief  it was. I feel that we need to be more creative in getting together so that the multiple excuses that arise don't get priority when planning our time together.
