Hopefully it'll be better than this really soon. I know, the theme is boring and there is no content.

Girl Time
Today is our friend's birthday and Fae and her two friends are hanging out for the day just talking and being girls and all of that. I've been trying to get her out of the house more and out doing Non-Mom things, just to break it up, let her use her brain for more than "Cheese Doodles or Nachos today while packing lunches".
She called a little while ago and asked me what to do - "Do I leave now and miss the traffic, or wait until after". I immediately responded with "Stay, I've got the kids" and told her that I was glad she was taking some time for herself and that she needed to do it more often, and hopefully more regularly. To that end, I suggested that if I knew ahead of time, she could do it regularly and I would stretch out my workday a little and handle things here. I have my workouts and martial arts, why shouldn't she have some kind of way to blow off steam?
She put me on speaker and told me to say it again so her friends could hear, and I was surprised at how 'generous' I was perceived - "what did I do to deserve you" and "you are so awesome".
Come on! Is this not normal - a guy suggesting his girl take it easy? Truthfully, I didn't see what I was doing as such a big deal. Is it? Now that I've been writing about it, I'm curious to see what people think. What do you do to give your spouse a break?
