lunch dates
Adam has been living in Des Moines for a year now, and we’ve been married for 7 months, but the fact that we can have lunch dates during the week is still a luxury. I hope it’s something that I never take for granted. And the great thing about Des Moines is that we both work downtown, so I can go meet him in the skywalks and we can lose ourselves among the other professionals who are wandering around tryign to decided if they want Maid-Rite or Subway. Our lunch of choice is usually pizza from a little vendor in the corner of the food court. We each get 2 slices and a small drink for $7, you can’t beat it. And seeing my husband in the middle of a stressful day is something I wouldn’t trade for anything.
Every girl needs a guy who can tell her to stop worrying and relax. That’s exactly what Adam does for me. Today I felt like I didn’t know what I was doing at work, and he quietly reminded me that I do know what I’m doing and if I have questions I can’t be afraid to ask. I still had a stressful, busy afternoon, but it was manageable.
