My Weekend is Over...

I have been locked up in a lakeside cabin for 2 and a half days with a man I adore. I feel wonderful! No friends, no family, no one's problems, and most importantly, no phone! I need to get away more often...

Have you ever been around a person that you NEVER get tired of. Don't get me wrong, my Boo and I enjoy our own space, but we never get to the point to where we just have to get away from each other. When we are together, we are like teenagers again. I get the giggles, and I am happy for no reason at all. He gets a little silly too. This weekend, we went camping. I am not the "outdoorsie" type, so I would never make it in a tent, or in an RV. He calls me a "girlie girl." My Boo loves nature. He appreciates everything about it from the trees to the water. My allergies say otherwise, but I try to get into the things that he is into, as well as he tries to do the same. He even sits through the ballet. So with a double dose of my allergy meds in my system, and plenty at hand, we opted to stay in our cabin for the weekend. That way, he got to frolic in the great outdoors, I had the luxury of indoor plumbing. We fished, hiked, shot the bow and arrow(actually I am very good at archery), rode mountain bikes, and HE did ALL the cooking, so it was great! He has been taking a culinary class and he wanted to show me his skills. I was impressed!

I only had one big scare this weekend. I am TERRIFIED of snakes. We came across one while we were hiking. It was just sitting there, looking at us. Now I have watched enough National Geographic and Discovery Channel specials to know that snakes will attack without being provoked. When I saw it, I couldn't move...But just like that, it was over. My Boo shot it so fast that I didn't even have time to scream. I had jitters for the rest of the day. I don't know if it was the snake or the gunshot, but I was jumping at even the slightest noise. I was checking all the corners of the house, the closets, the cabinets...I didn't want any surprises. So we stayed inside the remainder of the weekend. Which wasn't so bad at all...If you know what I mean.

When you love someone, you learn to appreciate the small things about them, and you learn to tolerate the things that you dislike. Camping being one of those things for me.

So, the questions for today are (I don't expect you to answer them all)...

How much sex is too much sex?

How much time do you enjoy spending with your mate?

What things could you NOT tolerate in a relationship?

What things are a MUST HAVE for your partner?

What is an ideal relationship to you? Does it even exist? (Before I was in a good relationship, I couldn't answer this question...)
