I used to think that NG and I had many routines, and it was not till a couple of weeks ago, as he was describing what he finds comforting in our R, did it dawn on me that to him these were more like rituals, not automatic, but anticipated.
We have breakfast together every day - full hour of apple, tea and CHAT Turns out that when we travel, this is one of the major pieces of our days that are missed, for both of us
At least twice a week, we now meet for lunch. It has gotten to the point of being embarassingly commented on by his and my colleagues
Sunday mornings, we walk up a nearby hill, commune with nature, shower together go have a full fried breakfast and snooze most of the day away. Lovely.
I'm looking forward to building more rituals, folks, let's get some more ideas flowing
