Gratitude Sunday – 11/22/09
I am going to copy David Letterman this week and count down the top 10 reasons for enjoying time away from my husband. I miss him already, so I thought maybe this list would help me focus on the “positives.” :-P
10. Lots of space in the bed. I don’t have to worry about sticking my knee in his back, or getting an elbow in the face.
9. Cleaner air. I am sure I don’t really need to explain this one, do I?
8. Having the car 24/7. Some of you know this, but I used to wake up every day of the week and drop him off at the Metro, or go without the car. I am looking forward to the break!
7. Less cooking. The kids are happy to eat cereal and ramen. This means I get more nights off.
6. Early homework submission. I will be bored, so my assignments will be finished extra early.
5. Binging on sappy, romantic chic flicks.
4. Reading in peace. There will no one trying to get my attention because he is being ignored while my nose is in a book.
3. Less laundry!
2. No Car Talk. He drives me nuts by constantly asking me what I think about this car, or to make a list of dream cars, or driving by car dealerships.
1. Full ownership of the “Scepter of Power,” otherwise known as the remote control. I can watch whatever I want, whenever I want. This means a LOT less “Stargate.” ;-)
