Our kids go to bed at 8 pm and by that time, Alicia and I are often bone tired. As the night winds down, and we finish up any personal or work stuff left undone during the day we often find ourselves on the couch in our basement watching Netflix through our Wii and snacking of something yummy. We got into this habit as babysitting became harder to obtain and more of our date nights became movie nights at home. We would simulate the theater experience as much as possible with a few treats. Over time, we liked these movie nights so much that we have mini-movie nights through the week - complete with treats.
Alicia is wanting to improve her health so we've planned on purchasing that treadmill I mentioned previously and I too feel like some of these bad habits need to stop for my own health. Now, don't get me wrong, every now and then, a box of milk duds, some red creme soda, and a stack of Pringles to share is awesome. But three times a week? Not so much. So, we're going to be good now and save these treat nights for less frequent occasions.
Yep.
But tonight doesn't count because it's date night.
