I've been having an awesome weekend with Debs, the lovely kids went to the lovely grandparents for the night, ah lovely :)
I don't want to put the mockers on me good run of husband form, but i couldn't resist theis lil prayer of marriage reconciliation i wrote earlier this week in a comment - you never know i might need it if things go pear shaped in the next 3 hours...
Now i lay me down to sleep, Lord i pray this couch i'll keep. Guard and get me through the night and help me win our next domestic fight. Amen
Today Debs and I are celebrating 10 yrs of being married!! We're off to the Il de Re in France for a few days of romantic reconection, whist the kids go to Granma's for a sugar fest :).
How do i sum up 10 yrs of marriage - rollercoaster ride! There has been some amazing moments, some real sickening ones and a lot of just hanging around!!
I won't be around til next week but feel free to look around and amuse yourselves :)
Hold the phone, it is my beautiful wife's [picutred above] birthday next sunday... so there I am browsing through Debs wishlist on amazon, thoughtfully trying to find her something she wants, rather than something we could share - oh alright would really be for me - when i got a sudden rush of blood to you know where...
Yes there in my wife's list was a book about how to be a happy hooker! Oh joy i thought, at last the gift that keeps on giving!
That's knitting crocheting** people, what else did you think it was about???
Apparently knititng is scorching hot at the mo and my amazingly talented wife has knitted socks, booties, scarves [and not just for her] and is currently working on a bag. Debs is very talented with her needles.
**aparently the book is about crocheting - so debs tells me - apparently that's just as hot too!
Don't say I never post you anything fun that is going on in my life... ;)
Oh ok, here's the picture i nearly used for this post...
So any more hookers out there????
One of the sagely words of advice on our marriage prep course was to try and take a regular break together - so for Debs christmas pressie I booked us a lil 18th century cottage for the weekend in the historical village of Avebury.
It really was great to just go away together and hang out away from the usual hectic pace of life - just to be able to relax and chat was such a good thing!
I also cooked debs a couple of gourmet meals, why does posh nosh seem to come packed with calories in the shape of cream, butter, wine etc..? Maybe that's why it tastes so good! Ah well diet was suspended for the weekend and we did go on a couple of wet/windy 5 mile walks as well... somehow the thought of coming home and drying off in front of our wood burning fire [pictured above] seemed to make them a lot more bearable...
