My only concern is that he is a person who is practically addicted to order and routine. And predictability. He likes to know "what's next". We talked about this aspect of his personality this past weekend, as a matter of fact. He said he cannot stand not knowing what's coming. The one time I surprised him with a weekend getaway (he woke up in the morning and I whisked him away, after dropping off the kids) I thought he would have a heart attack. He loved it but was very out of sorts for about 3 hours until he settled into what we were doing.
So I wonder if such a thing would drive him crazy or if he'd like it?
It's worth a try.
Perhaps when we get some EC going again, I will suggest it. This idea is a keeper. He definitely responds to being told "no" but I could not figure out a way to incorporate that into our lives without it seeming manipulative and silly.
