My dear fiance' and I both have demanding jobs and the work week is always hectic and exhausting. So when the weekend comes around, I marvel at how different they are now compared to my former life as a mormon.
Saturday mornings--sleeping in a little. Having my sweetie come tell me he's made me coffee and giving me a kiss or sometimes joining me back in bed for a little snuggling. Then, coffee and reading the paper together and a little breakfast. Doing our thing the rest of the day and going out Saturday night, maybe a cocktail and some good lovin' later.
Sunday mornings the same thing with NO pressure to get to church, do VT, prepare a lesson, spend 3 hours being bored with lessons designed to make me feel like I am never doing enough, being good enough, or doing things that are bad.
I used to HATE the weekends. Now they are a luxury I won't take for granted. Instead of being exhausted at the end of the weekend, I am rested and ready to take on the work week once again.
