I love Thursdays. Several months ago (maybe even a year now) Karl started working from home on Thursdays. The reason he did this is because I was getting so heavily medicated that he was worried about me driving into town for doctor appointments. So Thursday became the day for waking up to a husband fast at work in the office in his PJ's, and a day that I learned to "share my space" with someone else in the house. Before long we got it down to a science. I would have an early afternoon appointment, which would guarantee a quite lunch together while we were in town.
Now that I go for three treatments, two hours apart in a day, we have had to adjust our schedule somewhat. I found that on other days, if I would take my laptop with me, I was guaranteed to get some things accomplished while I was out, using the library's wireless internet. Or Atlanta Bread Company . . . or Schlotzky's Deli, or Village Inn . . . and the list goes on. So NOW we go to my doctor's office, then to the library where we set up a desk that we share - with our laptops backing up to each other's. And Karl brings two laptops, one from home and one from work. So he can multi-task. I can leave my laptop all set up and go for my second and third treatments by myself . . . and Karl gets work done, and we are accomplishing much, and enjoying each other's company even more.
So I love Thursdays. Because I have my husband all to myself. I don't have to share him with Matt or Don (son in law) or Cristyane (my dtr) or Trinity (granddaughter). I'm selfish and I admit it. I love my time with him . . . and that's all I have to say about that! :0)
well I am glad someone loves Thursdays because I don't care for them. They seem to be the day I have to talk myself into getting through. Carter said the other day that he thought Thursdays were really long too!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you have some time with Karl and you deserve to be "selfish", if that is what you want to call it. I call it preserving your relationship and that is what it is all about, isn't it! If you can't find time for each other.....well, you know where I am heading! :) Miss you gf and wish we had had more time together!
