The mister has been travelling lately. A lot. And I don't hear from him very much if he's at a work conference, so it gets to be very hard. We both miss eachother tremendously, so to distract ourselves, we soak our brains in work, to the point of exhaustion.
So, this past week the mister flew me out to meet him after a work conference for a surprise holiday. Greece.
It was sunny...
though the sea wasn't very warm...
but really thrilling, since we visited some of the ancient sites.
It was also our two-year anniversary (yeah, yeah, I can hear you veterans giggling out there at how "new" we are...).
It was amazing, because even with just 4 days away, it recalibrated us. Calmed us down. And, as the mister plainly pointed out, it "took away the work and corporate crap that we get tricked into thinking is so important". It made us realise that nothing is as important as time together. Space to breathe. Just holding hands and walking down the beach and not saying anything. Dreaming of sailing boats.
And even though we're back at work now and the mister is travelling constantly for the next 2 weeks, we still have that little moment to hold onto for a while. That little hey...pssst...I love you that's like a mental love note that keeps our smiles twinkling.
Two years. It goes by so quickly. Too quickly, sometimes.

Sounds like the perfect way to recharge.
