The Perfect Super Bowl Weekend (Minus the Super Bowl)

After being apart from John for a whole week, all I wanted to do was glue myself to him when he came home Friday night. I felt like a child feels the night before Christmas when the tree is decorated and the gifts are falling over one another – the anticipation is almost too great and sleep seems to vanish.

This past Friday I received the gift of being with John and this was no small gift! I had worked hard during the week in order to free our calendar for the weekend. I cooked like a mad woman on Thursday and as a result, we didn’t have to cook at all. We went to bed early and stayed in bed until late. We ate our traditional Saturday breakfast (scrambled eggs with feta and toast with apple butter). We lounged around the house in our pajamas and we said ‘I love you’ at least 100 times. We talked about our weeks and we finished reading a book (The Silver Chair – in case you are wondering). We went to church and skipped the super bowl game. Yup, we had the best super bowl weekend without watching the super bowl game.

And when you only have 30 hours a week to be with the person you love, the only thing you want to do is be with that person. That is exactly what we did!
