TGIF

It's FRIDAY and I'm psyched!  Although I like my job, I have to get up every morning Monday-Friday at 5:30 am.  sigh  I'm not a morning person, so I really love sleeping in on the weekends.  And, if I happen to wake up early on a Saturday morning, I will sometimes treat myself to a nap in the afternoon...something I can't do during the week.  It's like a treat to myself to be able to stay awake on a Saturday night and watch late night tv.  Ok, ok...it's the little things.  :)
The only thing I'm not really looking forward to is having DSGS7 over tomorrow and overnight.  He's a good boy, but I just so enjoy it just being me and dh on the weekends.  Although I've known DSGS7 since he was a baby, I just don't have the bond with him that dh does.  He's not blood and I know what it feels like to totally love a grandchild as I DO have one (DGS11) although he's in an open adoption.  That matters not because my heart skips a beat when I see him, unlike DSGS7.  I've tried, but it's just not there.  I love him and am good to him, but don't have the NEED to see him like dh does.  I could see him a couple times a year and be fine.  Dh and I aren't like the typical grandparents we know...we're relative newlyweds (although we're in our 50's)...only been together 6 years.  I still cherish our time alone.

I feel for you and understand. I hope you still get nap time or at least relish time with Dh even more when you do get the chance. Your sweetness is apparent.
