What A Way To Start The Day!
Mar 13th, 2009 by Shalee
A few days ago, one of my coworkers was astonished (and jealous) when she found out that the kids were going to be gone for nine days. She asked what we would be doing to bide our time with the kids away. Quickly, I replied that we would be dancing, running around the house neck-ed and having s*x without closing the door.
Her eyes widened and then she laughed at the honesty. She said with a sigh that she wished she could have one of those weeks too.
I was walking down the hallway at work this morning when the same coworker commented, “My Shalee… You’re looking chipper this morning!”
I replied with a sly smile, “It’s been a VERY good morning so far…”
She busted out in a knowing laugh. Being kidless definitely has its highpoints.
This morning, after a morning tussle, Mr. Right made us a wonderful breakfast of country potatoes with onions, bacon and cheese and scrambled eggs, paired with fresh ground coffee. He let me get ready for work while he managed all the details.
That was just the start of the blessings.
? I came to work a few minutes late, only to find that I was the first to arrive. I love those unexpected surprises. I was hurrying for nothing.
? Two of my main bosses are gone for the day.
? Today, lunch will be supplied by the office since we’re having a training week here. (The biggest bonus is that I do all the ordering, so we get whatever I want.) J
? Though the day is overcast, it is slowly warming up to decent spring weather.
? It’s jeans day at work.
? The radio is playing a slew of great songs. It must be an 80’s day or something! Woo hoo!
? There are a ton of great sales at the grocery stores. I plan on stocking up after work.
? Dancing class and a dance party is on the agenda for tonight. I plan on picking out my sexiest dress for this occasion. (Don’t worry. I don’t have any floozy dresses.)
? Mr. Right will get to sleep in tomorrow morning. I will either miraculously sleep in or the cat will start meowing at 4 AM, trying to get me to get up. I may accidently shut that cat into a closet or something if she persists in that vein… If I’m up early, I plan on reading the hundreds of posts that are unread in my bloglines. I’m such a pathetic blog friend still.
That’s my Friday. What will you be doing this weekend? I hope it involves something fun and exciting for you!
My fiance is coming to town! We are dating/engaged long distance – is in Washington, DC and I am in Southeastern NC. I can’t wait to give him a big hug and spend the weekend together! But more than that I can’t wait to be his wife in 5 1/2 (short/long months)!!
I am cleaning and quilting so I have a balanced life but tonight we are taking the Great Grandbabies to the hot spring to go swimming.
Have a Fabulous Friday ???

You never fail to crack me up. Love hearing about your s*x life girl, ha! (I’m teasing you).
Me I will be packing so I can travel thousands of miles to meet people I don’t know and stay in a hotel room with a girl I have yet to meet face to face, in a town I have never been in. And trying not to down all the wine thinking about that fact. ha! Seriously I am excited to be heading to Dallas for the Christian Book Expo to stalk some of my favorite authors. Wish you could be there with me
Shalee, you know what I love about your blog? I love your honesty, but also I love love love the unashamed love that you have your *ahem* with your husband – it is such an example to me. Of course, my hubby is VERY private & he would KILL me if I ever blogged about anything close to what you do…but still, I think it’s a great example to enjoy the *ahem* as a precious. intimate gift from God instead of treating it like a burden.
Thanks for sharing!
I am sorting and purging the closet. Fun times. :v)
Sounds like a wonderful time for you and Mr. Right to connect and relax! I love when my parents have the kids for even a day!!
Hahahaha!! I’m totally cracking up at your honesty. I love those kind of weeks too, though I’d never be on top of such a hilarious comeback. Have fun!!
I’m officially jealous! You’d absolutely love my three little girls!!! Can I ship them to you for a few days, so that I can experience all the joys that you described to your co-worker?!!
