Heavenly weekend

What a wonderful weekend! I feel calm, peaceful and happy. Hubby and I had a great time. It was a little limited because he had to work several hours but still, we got to spend every minute he wasn’t at work, ALONE (nudge, nudge say no more). We splurged and had pizza and wings (Pizza Hut) delivered Saturday evening. I wasn’t too keen on forking over money on fast food but it was a special occasion.

The best part of the weekend was simply the quietness. No fighting (sister and BIL), no relentless chatter from a ten year girl that is in love with Jesse McCartney and makes sure you hear every detail of Jesse’s life down to the age of every family member and their favorite color even though you’ve heard it a hundred times. No second-hand cigarette smoke seeping in the living room by way of the back patio. No endless phone calls from niece’s friends (10 calls a day) along with no slamming doors over and over from these friends coming over every day and running in and out of niece’s bedroom and the front door. No dog barking 24/7 at the commotion of all the human traffic of children, neighbors and solicitors banging on the front door. No mind games and being pulled into two by my sister and her husband. Just pure sweet quiet. Aahhhhhh.

Having the freedom to walk around the house, do things on my time and getting to play Zelda and Spongebob (GameCube and Xbox) on the big screen TV was awesome.

A weekend without stress is so rejuvenating.
