Great Expectations






A year ago -- when Sir Steve and I were starting our relationship...... we did stuff on weekends.  AND we planned all the stuff we would do when I was living here.

Visions of play parties and munches and weekend trips to other cities -  of long lazy days in bed with grilled cheese sandwiches and chocolate milk - danced through my head.

AND it started off well -- with trips to Montreal for munches and play parties.... and visits back to my old haunts for munches and even one Saturday with grilled cheese sandwiches and chocolate milk in bed.......

BUT the reality is -- when you are starting a relationship you are energized and eager .... you find the money and the time..... then life steps in.... the money goes on booster seats and clothes for the lil one... on food and stuff for the house or car -- work hours are longer and he's more tired....

And it gets easier and easier to veg at home .......

Then mid-winter blahs set in...... 

And all the plans you once had float away into the frozen mist.......... 


(I have more thoughts on the 'normality' setting in -- the laziness setting in -- but will save those thoughts - sort out those thoughts - and write about it later)
