This week I get to sit back and relax! A homemade candle lit dinner, made by John Without help or interference Yes!! I knew it was in there somewhere! 🙂 And I am happy not to help or interfere, or at least try… It’s Easter this week and with John STILL working in London a […]
The only benefit (apart from having the TV remote to myself!) of John being away during the week is him arriving back in Manchester at a time that coincides with me finishing work so we can have a cheeky midweek date night! On Thursday that’s exactly what happened! So with a twist on a coffee […]
Date night this week is a coffee shop date Now, John’s in London til Thursday, we’re at a wedding on Saturday (first one in AGES, very excited!) so there’s few opportunities for coffee, let alone a coffee date. But, I guess that’s the challenge!
Movie night happened in 2 phases this week… Friday night we settled down to watch John’s choice of movie, Blade Runner (I’m useless with films and thought it was a vampire movie!! Funnily enough a friend also thought this?!) but after updating the xbox for 20mins the download wasn’t working properly so we gave up… […]
There is a theme developing here, and a nagging at the back of my mind… This weeks date: Watch John’s choice of movie, either at home or the cinema So John benefits again… Are there any dates in there where I get a candle lit dinner and movie choice? Or is it that if it […]
How is it the middle of March already? Where do the weeks go, other than in a blur of dates! This week I picked ANOTHER John classic… Play on the Xbox together The Xbox was a Christmas and birthday present for John, and to be fair hasn’t been overly used, unless the nephews are visiting! […]
We finally did it 🙂 Two weeks of date night, and tomorrow is ‘jar day’ again!!
On Tuesday I saw an opportunity, so I seized it! John had been working in Birmingham and was going to be late home. It’s rare I’m home before him as his hours, and commute, mean he’s home before I’ve even finished my day. Having not specified that the home cooked meal had to be anything […]
So this weeks date better have another half… Homemade, candle light dinner, made by Kate What are the chances of there being one made by John in the jar?? He’s remaining quiet on that conundrum! In the meantime he’s been hailed a ‘genius’ by my (male) work colleagues… PS the jigsaw is still in a […]
Another well timed date this week (just before pay day!) Go and buy a jigsaw and complete it together I love a good jigsaw!! This takes me back to childhood, we regularly completed jigsaw on rainy Cornish holidays, or they were used to keep us quiet during rainy weekends at home! I wasn’t convinced we’d […]
