Yesterday I arrived home at 6:30 pm. On my way home my husband called and suggested we go eat dinner with our boys at college about 70 minutes away. I immediately thought something was wrong, as the kids had just left home to go back the day before. It had been a beautiful spring day unlike the weather over the weekend, but I was inside working all day.I had daydreamed out the window a couple of times, thinking how wonderful it would be to bask in its glory. As soon as I got home, we hopped in the convertible with the top down and took off. It was so relaxing letting the day blow away. I asked my husband why he decided to go, he told me "I just want to see the boys because I didn't get to see them this weekend as much as I wanted". Normally I might had gripped and complained when he suggested after a long day of work we take a long drive, but I thought why not. What a wonderful way to end a Monday, just by saying yes. The dinner, the company and the drive was great. I was able to enjoy that beautiful day despite having to work. We didn't get home until 10:00 and I slept great. Normal Monday night sleep is usually quite restless. What a great change! So next time you want to say no, evaluate the question and consider saying yes!!
