The weather's been gorgeous lately, so the daughter went for a romp the last weekend in a cold park fountain. Watching HD's joyful abandon over running in gushing water...it makes my heart sing. And I'll be honest, it also makes me a wee jealous. It reminds me of that part in Knocked Up when Paul Rudd's character is watching his kids in the park, and he comments that he wished he enjoyed anything as much as his kids enjoy bubbles. He obviously loves his kids, but he knows he needs something in his life that's just his own.
So Hubs and I have instituted taking every other Saturday morning off. One of us spends quality time with HD, and the other one gets to do whatever he/she wants (sleep, errands, workout, laze about and watch tv). Today's my morning off -- I'm thinking this could could be the perfect time to start dusting off old hobbies, or cultivate a new one.
This is a great idea! I hope you enjoy your newfound time, and look forward to every other Saturday that's all your own!!
