Marriage Actually - An honest look at marriage

I’m back….

by Kerri on May 10th, 2008

Well, from Bald Man’s “Bachelor” series, you’ll gather that I was gone for a bit. Oh, and I think I mentioned it, too.

Yes, I missed my family. I really did. But I’m so glad I was able to go. I mean, who wouldn’t love to have three hour dinners prepared by a chef, accompanied by wine, conversation, and no one to have to worry about but yourself? Fantastic. Beach bumming didn’t hurt, either. ;)

The best part about having gone away was the feeling of being completely refreshed and energized. Whether I’ve been gone for an evening, a day, or a long weekend, I love coming back to my family feeling rejuvenated. I have new experiences to share with them, new foods to create for them, and just a renewed look at life, friends, family, and who I am. And I’m ready to share all of that joy with them in the days to come.

When I can’t get away for a long period of time, I find that getting some time just to read or journal does wonders for me and for my relationship with Bald Man. (Except for right now when he’s sticking his cold hand on me on purpose!!! Then I just want to hurt him.)

How do you find space and time in your life to be rejuvenated for yourself and your relationships?
