My husband and I are going out tonight. Lent ended nearly a week ago. I still haven't consumed wine. How can that be? I gave it up for Lent, dammit. Not for life. Somehow life got in the way of wine this week. So, we're going out for tapas and wine. My favorite.
P.S. I thought I'd visit Grandpa on my own this weekend. Several of his daughters will take care of him this weekend, so I'm not needed. But, the jury is still out regarding my travel plans.
I began the layout for this blog in April 2008. I planned on blogging about life as an educated, intentionally unemployed stay-at-home mom. I never wrote a word. In November 2008, my fourth child was born still. Because I lost my precious baby girl, my blog specifically evolved into: life after losing a child to stillbirth. P.S. Four months later, add cancer to the subject matter.

I can safely confirm for you, Lent is OVER. Enjoy the wine. You deserve it! xxx
Oh, I'm *so* glad! That sounds wonderful, and no one deserves a date night more than you too. Enjoy! (And drink up!)
Enjoy your wine! (I can't stand the stuff... but that's just me! ;)
Bottoms up! Tapas and wine are a great combo.
Drink a glass for me!
