Can I start this post off with “Ahhh!” today?? Today is just
one of those days when you sit down and think about everything that’s going on
the next few days and you just feel overwhelmed. It’s not that my schedule is
any more challenging than normal, but I think it’s that final countdown to
Christmas along with a non-routine lately that’s getting to me. There’s been kids’
activities pretty much every night, I’m working random days and evenings at my ‘real’
job, and I’m ready for some consistency…maybe that will be one of my goals for
2015! I’m glad not everything is routine all of the time though; I do
appreciate the Freedom to be spontaneous too. J
I’ve
been talking about K-Y® Liquibeads a
couple of times over the past month (Read about the challenge I took HERE), and I’ve got to say, for someone who has a crazy busy life
they are helping so much! Wayne and I have actually had two last minute date
opportunities this month (yes TWO! It’s been forever since we’ve been on two in
a month!) The first date was a last minute invite to a media dinner at a new brewery
(I’m working on those pictures next!) and then we ended up getting my friend to
babysit last minute this past Friday and we attended my work’s company holiday
party.
The pictures are definitely not the best here, but I didn’t
want to be lugging around my big camera inside of my tiny purse for a ‘work’
thing…and I’m pretty sure my camera wouldn’t have fit in it anyways!
We had cocktails and wine with our dinner. I played it safe
with the chicken and Wayne ordered the salmon.
It was a pretty big evening with probably about 1,000 in attendance.
After dinner there was dancing, photo booths, and gambling to keep everyone
entertained, yet at most events of this size, sometimes just sitting there and
people watching is just as entertaining!
We
hung out with my friend and her boyfriend, and ended up staying out until 3:00
am! It’s been a very long time since we had a night that late! (I drank lots of
coffee the next morning during Anika’s basketball games).
I guess what I’m saying in this rambling post is that even
though I crave a routine, sometimes life is better without one – sometimes life
is better when things just fall into place and you can have that freedom to be
spontaneous! I’m glad I decided to take
the challenge – if you want more information about the K-Y® Liquibeads and my
previous posts take a peek:
Then print this coupon for $1.00 any K-Y® product and head to Walgreens to take
the challenge for yourself! (Unless you are pregnant or nursing – make sure to
chat with your physician first!)
Until tomorrow my friends,

I'm SO glad that you guys have had time for spontaneous dates lately. That can be SO important to the health of a relationship. My husband and I need to do it more often. And by "do it" I mean go on spontaneous dates. Although the other definition of "do it" would apply too. :) #client
