Date Night Stresses

Chris and I had scheduled a nice relaxing date night for last night, where we would test out a tandem bike and go out for dinner.  But of course, there is always something to make things more complicated.  As we started out on our date, we first stopped at the bank to make a deposit for my work, as we commenced to leave I of course had a work call.  My supervisor asked I go back to my office to meet with a couple that they just sent over from their office to look at one of our units...to top it off, they'd be there in 3 minutes.  Okay, that wouldn't have been so bad if we weren't stuck in rush hour traffic and about 1 mile away.  Luckily we made it back in time to meet with them but by the time we got done with them we had missed making it to the bike shop to test out a tandem bike, for now it was close and we had 15 minutes to stop and get gas and make it clear across town to meet with one of our in-law family members for dinner.  I have to admit that I was frustrated, I hate being late to events and things not going as planned.  Lucky for me I have an amazing husband that tried his hardest to make things better and brought a smile to my face and made the rest of the evening a blast.

It's funny how things work out.  We have prayed that I would have success with my job, and when the opportunity arises to do so, it is of course when we least plan for it and during other things.  Talk about a test of patience and endurance.
