It's kind of been a long week. I'm not complaining because there are people who have it WAY worse than I do - and to be honest most of the things that have made this week long have also made me laugh a little - so whatever. But Brad thought I needed a night off. He told me he thought I should plan to leave and go somewhere just for fun. There was an NBA game on last night that he was planning to watch with the boys and I really only planned to put the girls to bed and do dishes - but I didn't bring up leaving again and I figured he'd forget.
BUT - he didn't. Last night after dinner Brad said, "Go. Get out of here all by yourself and go just do something that you want to do and I will see you when you get back." And guess what? I WENT!!! I just left and Brad put the girls to bed and had "boy time" with Tanner and Madsen. I went to Barnes and Noble. I sat in their coffee shop and read "The Cream Puff Murder" from cover to cover (not digesting most of it obviously - but keeping up on the story at least). When I was done (and I might say I enjoyed this most recent book in the Hannah Swenson series) I bought a paperback I wanted to read and came home and sat in my jetted tub and read until I was ready for bed. IT FELT GREAT!!! I highly recommend it. If you need help - I am such a great friend that I am even willing to go show you how to let it all go! See how nice I am?

AWESOME!!! I love those moments, few and far between as they may be. Sigh!
Awesome! I can just imagine. Tell Brad that he is up for a best husband nomination, with Jeff of course. Hope he wins.
You go girl! Nights out are just the refreshers we need!
You soooo deserved that. Might I also thank you for the fabulous idea? I think a night at Barnes and Nobles would be fabulous. I'm going to do that next time Eric tells me to "Get out."
I love surprises like that :) I especially love it when you don't have 82 calls from home while you are gone!
