Our Perfect, Lazy Day

It seems like for the past month I have been absolutely swamped with things to do. With the holidays here, the school year ending, working on wedding plans, beginning my second job again, and a variety of other responsibilities, it seems that my fiance has been put aside. Now don't get me wrong, I see Kevin everyday. Throughout the day, we text and see what each other is doing and at the end of the day we always have dinner together but other than that, we don't have much time for anything else. It's as if for the past 4 weeks, we've just gone through the motions of the day. We start our days, send a few texts back and forth but really don't carry on much conversation, Kev works out at the gym while I work or do homework, we eat dinner together, and then its bed time. When the weekend comes, it's no different. We have a fifty things to do and a hundred places to go. So when the week winds down and I look back, I see that though I've been with Kevin, we haven't really spent much time together. But yesterday, we made up for that!

Since I'm out of school now and I didn't have to work and Kevin was off, we spent the day doing nothing but being lazy and it was AMAZING! We woke up and spent some time with our little guy! Sadly, he gets put on the back burner too :( After we played with him for a while, we curled up together on the couch and watched some tv... & of course, Rimy had to cuddle with us too! He's a spoiled fella! Around 12 we started getting hungry so we decided to go out to lunch. After lunch we came back home, cuddled up on the couch, and watched "Knight and Day". By that point, it was 4 o'clock and we had to stop being lazy so we got up and went to the gym. Then last night we went to see my nephew's school Christmas play and had dinner at Fursty's with my sister, brother-in-law, and nephew after. By the time we got home, it was time to call it a night and prepare for a new day.

So when I woke up this morning, I had a revelation. Yesterday was the best day I've had in a very long time. Not because I didn't have the opportunities but because I gave up those opportunities for those lazy days so I could accomplish a million and one things that I'd taken on that really didn't matter and that could wait. Because in the grand scheme of things, what is most important is those you love. So I've decided that I'm not waiting another month for another perfect,lazy day with my loves. I'm going to slow down and take some time for my two fellas so that we can have a lazy day every chance we can get (:
