A Night Out of the Norm

Today I am thankful for a night out of the norm.

Ryan and I have needed a night away. We still do. We need to get away from everything for even a few hours. Our schedules aren't allowing it for at least another couple of weeks, though, so we had to improvise. Last night, we moved the furniture around a bit and set up the air mattress in our living room. We didn't end up sleeping there (it seems there's a leak somewhere in the mattress and we would have woken up on the ground!), but we hung out all night watching some of our favorite TV shows and talking. It wasn't any fancy date night by any means, but just a relaxing evening together away from our phones, computers, work we brought home, etc. I still need a night truly away from it all, but for a few hours it was nice to break the normal routine.
