I went to a movie and dinner with a "married" girlfriend tonight. I walked away thinking about how it is we always seem to think the grass is greener on the other side.
She was envious of the fact that I have built in time to myself every single week when my kids go to their Dads. I of course was envious that she has someone to go to a movie with any night of the week. Or snuggle with, or eat dinner with, or even just look at. How about have sex with?
Oh, but I digress. The point is, I'm sure if I were to pry, she would probably do just about anything to have some built in time and not have 6 little eyes staring at her every next move. She would probably love to dance around in her underwear just once on a Sunday afternoon. So why is it that us single people want what the married people have and the married people are always wondering what it might be like to be single again.
So I say, close your eyes, and count your blessings and know you are exactly where you need to be and enjoy the heck out of it.
