I am checking in from a day off! Hi Ladies! Today is St. Jean Baptiste- a statutory holiday, but only in Quebec. June 24th (St. Jean Baptiste) and July 1st (Canada Day) are the two days I look forward to the most every year. Why? Because they are not date nights… they are date DAYS! The kids go off to camp, and hubby is home from work. It’s the only time the kids aren’t around, and we get to enjoy a day off, alone, just with each other.
So, today is our Fifty Shades of Grey date day. 
We planned on going to a hotel downtown for the afternoon to sit by the pool with some cocktails. But, it’s raining, so who knows… Any suggestions?
And if you’ve been married as long as we have, you might enjoy this. It came c/o a friend.
Ahh, gotta love it.
So no inspiration today. No “off the fence” hopping. Just a day off with my man.
Happy Monday friends- my favorite day of the week– tabula rasa. A clean slate. A chance to start over again and get it right. Make it a great week.
A bientot (as we say in Quebec)!

A day off during the week is great. Here in the US I will be experiencing that this week on Wednesday as we celebrate Independence Day. Can’t wait.
I hope you enjoyed your romantic day off with your man.
LOL..I had to have a great laugh! As a mom living in Montreal, Quebec, today was not a day off!!! It was all about kids running wild all over the house, husband home and mom running around trying to keep up with everyone!
Tuesday, however, hubs back at work, kids at day camp, and mommy at home…alone.
God Bless
Stay in bed all day and watch movies. The PERFECT day off.
Enjoy the day off with you man. I love this picture!!! So funny.
