I like the hugging and kissing that we do but on Sunday I had a long weekend without much sleep and alot of stress. So to me the few minutes that I wanted to take for myself I did not think was that awful.
Taking the few minutes for yourself is absolutely understandable. I was just thinking that there is often some subtle body language that sets a negative tone. There is a big difference between "Hmmfff, not now, I'm trying to relax..." and "Hey hon, I just need a few minutes of down time, okay? "

Now we are having a weekend away this weekend...lets see how creative you all are. I want to surprise H while we are away, but we have full days and nights planned, so its got to be simple. What have any of you guys done?
What type of weekend away? Are you driving, flying? Hotel, resort, tent? Restaurant, show? It sounds like you have activities planned already so I'm guessing the creative surprise would be bedroom related?
