The fskids aren't bad they really are pretty good kids. But I love my alone time with my SO.

We are going to eat Thai and then going to the symphony. Afterwards we go for a drink and desert at this cute little bistro we found.

I love the no skid weekends. One of the best things we did as a couple 3yrs ago was get season tickets to the symphony. It is fun to get a dressed up have a nice dinner and intimate conversation. A special date night.

What do you all do to make sure you get alone time with your man?

To be honest I like the time every other weekend with my dh, our daughter, and I on SS's weekends with his BM. The time alone as a family with no work, and most errands we run on weekday mornings before DH goes to work so it is just us having family time and fun. We don't have that much when SS is here, SS gets into trouble I retreat and then DH gets annoyed with SS when his calm is disturbed and peace does not show its face for the entire weekend. So I cherish the weekends without SS not just for time with DH but for the time as a family, with only our little unit.

I like alone time with DH to but our daughter is so easy and takes long naps and goes to bed well so I feel like I have that quite a bit. We still try to go out at least twice a month with no kids to dinner or a movie though and my mom will take our daughter for our "date night"

Does going to Costco once a month for groceries and a hot dog combo count as a date?

I love running errands with just me and DH when we have no time constraints. We'll usually stop for lattes and get lots of time to talk and just be together. I'm pretty low maintenance when it comes to "dates". A hot dog combo would be fine for me!

Thanks Maux, If my SO wasn't so special I would have ran from the step hell along time ago. Its really not even the kids now, it's the fear of the teenage years. You see I've been there done that with my own daughter. And His ex is really crazy.
She is poison.
