Because my husband rocks…

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I post a picture and just a few words.

…last weekend, he gave me the early birthday gift of two nights away by myself (After 17 years of hanging around me, he knows that alone time recharges my batteries.)

And he gave me a certificate for a pedicure and a massage too.

It was delightful and refreshing and I came home feeling more ready to jump back into my normal responsibilities.

So, yay, Mr. FG!   I must say, it is pretty awesome to have a husband who cares about me so much…I am blessed.

P.S. I’m giving away a $50 Dollar General gift card at the moment.   Go enter!

"A happy wife is a happy life" they say. Has certainly worked for me. :)

Good for you! (and good for Mr FG!) I had a big birthday last year and it coincided with a big birthday. At the same time, one of my good friends was driving cross country to California. My husband and kids let me go on a 10 day cross country road trip. It was a long time but I do think we sometimes need to look at things in a different way for a few days to make everything else come into perspective.

What are those striped pants you are wearing? The look comfy and I love the stripes!

That's actually a striped maxi dress, which I got from Nordstrom Rack. It's SO comfy.

A few years ago my husband gave me a gift certificate to a spa and told me to take a few friends with me. It was wonderful. That is a gift I would happily receive every year. However, I don't think it has ever occurred to him to gift me alone time...that would be a precious gift. Alone time is in very short supply with babies and toddlers at home! What a thoughtful guy Mr. FG is!

Yeah, time with friends would have been fun, but alone time comes out slightly ahead of that in my mind! (mainly because I do get to see friends pretty frequently, but alone time is very rare.)

Oh WOW! Your husband not only rocks - he rocks and rolls! LOVE THIS!

Good for you - and him. It took me decades to teach my husband this kind of gift giving. Once he learned it, he never forgot it.
