Be My Valentine!

Howdy Pardners!  I hope that you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!  Ours was pretty un-eventful, I just worked, cleaned house, and cooked a special dinner for Jay (Shrimp Alfredo), we exchanged small gifts and then just snuggled on the couch and watched a silly movie.  I love Valentine's day.  I know a lot of people call it a Hallmark Holiday, and that it very well might be....but I love it...and while Jay and I celebrate our love every day...er...most days anyway...it was nice to just have an evening that we just were wrapped up in each other...rather than just another night sitting in front of the tube with him on the computer and me snuggling the cats and trying not to fall asleep on the couch haha. 


What did you do for Valentine's Day?

Oh To Be Alone!

I am NEVER alone...well...not NEVER, but for only about 20 minutes a day and that's only because I am either on my way to or from work.  So...my alone time is EXTREMELY rare. My husband is home all the time, which I know can be frustrating for him too...but it is really starting to drive me crazy that I never have any time for myself.  Jay always says "just tell me to go to the bedroom...I don't mind" but that's not leaving me alone!  I WANT TO BE ALONE!!!  FOR JUST ONE DAY!!  The 3o minute trip you take to the grocery store doesn't count as giving me alone time! I realize that my time is running short on ever being able to be alone ever again...and I would really like to take advantage of a few days between now and then to just be by myself.  I love my husband very much, and I love spending time with him....but a girl just has to have some "ME" time every now and then!  It makes me kind of sad that I can't remember when the last time I had "me" time was.  I think I would get a lot more accomplished if I was left alone more often haha.  I think back to before Jay and I were married...my apartment was always clean, I was usually relaxed, and I could take a nice hot bubble bath without someone having to come in and take a crap.  Now.....yeesh, I don't even want to think about it.  So...please God...give Jason a job soon so that he will be at work for at least a few hours a day while I am home so I can enjoy some peace and quiet!
