date night, shmate night

i start and i start over then i start again. . . . i have soooo o much to write about and at the same time i have absolutly nothing to write about. it just all everyday same ol'-same ol'. however the everyday is our EVERYTHING. rushing thomas out the door to go to school makes me happy. seeing tobias wake up first thing in the morning brings me joy. falling asleep next to rodney is the perfect end to all my days. but is it ok to have everyday same ol' same ol' with the ol' husband? i've read magazine articles in redbook, woman's day and readers digest about "how to spice up your marriage". i always thought this was stupid. why would a marriage need spicing up and why on earth do we call it 'spice'. that's gay. rodney and i had "date night" a couple weeks back in an effort to throw something different into our everyday everything. however, we had an evening that started and 7 and was over by 10. we would have been on the "don't" list in any of these magazine articles. nevertheless, we hung out again last night and have plans to go out to celebrate valentines day. so we will forever continue to go out, we just need more patience and practice. i tell you what though. . . .i'd rather have a million failed date nights with rodney then one single "everyday" day without rodney.
