What a special and perfect day today has been! I'm not one to brag about MIcheal (or am I?) but today he deserves some kind of honorable mention and acknowledgment.
Today we celebrate 14 years of still being together in marriage and in love... well, most of the time at least, and especially today! We have not had much quality time together because of all the time he's been logging in at work so it was a real surprise to me when he tells me he's taking me somewhere on our anniversary. As we're driving and I'm putting make-up on in the car (it's a bad habit of mine) he tells me not to put too much make-up on cause he's taking me to a spa. How romantic, right? Yes, if we were doing couple spa treatments! So, it turns out that the spa he's booked for me is at the luxurious Four Seasons which also happens to be located right next door to his office!! He walks me over and tells me he'll pick me up for lunch after my facial which by the way was a horrible idea cause my face was swollen after the extraction. The waitress at my favorite restaurant notices how puffed up my face was and suggests a seaweed/tofu salad that would reduce the swelling!!! After the delicious lunch at Tamerine's in Palo Alto (please try this restaurant if you are ever in the area and you must sample the shaking beef) he takes me back for my 90 minute Swedish massage while he goes back to work at the office!!!
Yes, it was still such a perfect and romantic gesture on my husband's part even if we did not get to do our spa treatments together. Despite his extremely busy work schedule, he managed to multi-task and squeeze our anniversary in between his client calls and meetings and for that I do applaud him and his efforts!
The past 14 years have been quite a roller coaster ride, and I hope to ride this roller coaster with him for at least 40 more years and all the way into eternity!
