Working out the "kinks"

[MissTaken]

Ummmm

It can be difficult in any relationship to adjust to togetherness, sharing time and space, juggling that additional third person into your daily schedule.

I find that this week, I am under the weather, pretty stressed out and finding the time and energy for Him amidst the children's needs has been tricky.

How do you deal with these little obstacles, the roadblock that prevents you from having what you want when you obligated to do what you do?

Disclaimer:
I am not negating my children in my life. They are still my life.

Second Disclaimer:

This is NOT a subtle slice into the "real life" versus "on line or LDR" crowd. It is a legitimate question.

For us our time is always last...........evrything else is first.........This is why we enforce bedtimes so we can have some adult time after they go to bed.......
To talk watch tv post here or go play what ever we chose to do.

 

[MissTaken]

And sometimes, is what you want to do is to just snuggle?

Damn! I was just plain tired last night

 

[Merelan]

Haha... I find that snuggling quite often wins over playing, of any sort.
By the end of the day neither of us are energetic, but the closeness of cuddling, wrapped in his arms. There is nothing more warm and secure as that.
This time of year, and for the next few months that is what will win out most the time. The holidays are stressful and hectic, especially since we are both managers of retail stores.

But I will find time to give him special moments too, even if I have to schedule them.

Weekend tend to be our best playtimes..............A little more rested and have plans then...............

 

[~Dream~]

yes its true

if you do not MAKE TIME for each other it can really hurt the relationship, my kids will however ALWAYS come first as I am beginning to think my health should also and I cant always rely solely on Master to realize my stress levels are QUITE high so i have to learn to become a little more independent which is hard on a new sub..

In any relationship I've been in, there's always just been time of understanding when one of us needed to take care of other things first. Not the old "I just need space" line, but more like a "you go take care of what you need to do so our time together can be of better quality when we finally get it" kind of thing.

Sometimes you can manage to sneak in the occasional nooner too, which never hurts.

So tonight, we planned an early bedtime and some cuddling.

I ahve bronchitis and every time I lie down, I begin coughing and sound like a four alarm fire bell.

He is in bed.
I will be sleeping in the recliner!

Ack!

OH well...it is what it is.

 

[Daddyslilpet]

Oh Miss T, that's too bad. You take care of yourself and get better soon.
