I’m no longer married, so I’m not sure that “going out on ‘date’ night with my ‘spouse’” applies exactly, but I still think it’s a good practice, so I had decided to carry it over into my new relationship.

We started off fairly well in achieving this. I set aside Tuesday evenings as “Tuesday Evening Date Night” and then moved it to Wednesday when we had a regular Tuesday evening commitment. That then was shunted to Friday evenings as Wednesday developed a regular activity elsewhere.

Then things went by the wayside. I’ve just gone through a very, very busy period of intense work and buying a house. I admit it slipped. I’m resolved to try to be better and to commit to making a time for this each week. I’m including an additional conditional too: it should involve leaving the house at least once a month. World of Warcraft and movies snuggled together on the couch are fine, but let’s add some variety too!

I’m currently working on my HEA accreditation again. I told the facilitator that this would be the year I would succeed. Unfortunately, I’m rapidly running out of time. I need to make a huge push next weekend to get the bulk of it done and out the door. It’s been so low-priority that it keeps falling off my radar.

So I’m going to count that here. We replaced the leaking kitchen tap in our new house with a swoopy Brita filter tap. It’s great!
