routine event is now rare:
the sublime date night
Now it requires time
and logistics, and of course
a babysitter
But the stars aligned
and tonight we’ll be without
kids at the movies.
I swear date nights are the one time I get to feel like a human being and not just a jungle gym for two hyperactive girls. I’ve talked about how doing hobbies, indulge in some pampering, and shopping on my own help rejuvenate me, and going out on a date with my husband is right up there on that list, too.
Watching a movie and getting a meal with no interruptions is my idea of a fancy Friday night now. And I’m OK with that.
To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:
1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.
2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.
3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.
REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
Enjoy it!!!
Yes the planning and logistics are unbelievable, isn’t it? We totally took it for granted how easy it was to just up and leave the house before we had children.
Have fun! 🙂
Hooray for date night! Have a wonderful time!!

I love Date Night. My husband and I have been lucky enough to be having weekly ones lately, thanks to my Mom. It’s just so wonderful to reconnect and have a dinner without the kid.
been away for a bit…felt nice doing one again.
Yay for time alone! We went out to a friend’s house last night. Ahhhh….
The word verification is “unworthy.”
That’s just wrong….
Mmm… uninterrupted dinner. I think it might be time for one of those again. 🙂
What a cool haiku! I hope you enjoyed your date night!
