Adjustments
After driving up Interstate 95 from the DMV Wednesday night, and getting caught in construction in Delaware for an hour, Profunksticated arrived in the South of New Jersey to vacation with the Spouse at our spring/summer/autumn/winter home. The rest of the fam is in the OC of MD. It’s just the two of us. No kids. Oh yeah.
I woke up this a.m., and lo and behold, the President was at attention on the South Lawn with “Hail to the Chief” playing loudly. I fully expected The Spouse to immediately join in the fanfare. But she, being of a stiff back and numb toes due to her injury, needed to head to the facilities of our year round “resort,” then do stretching exercises. She also even got coffee.
By the time she returned to the cluttered budoir, the band had quit playing, packed up their instruments and had left the White House. The President was still there, but with arms folded and foot tapping. Finally after trying a few things (she even made use of a certain dry cell-operated device), our dissatisfied Chief Executive slunk back to the Oval Office to tackle the mundane matters of State.
We did talk about it. The Spouse promised in the future to come to the South Lawn when summoned upon awakening. And I told her I understood her issues with her back and would be more patient.
Take note, you single ladies: Long-term matrimony, like the horizontal and vertical holds on those old rabbit-ear televisions, will need adjustment from time to time. This is one of those times.
Peace.
Thanks for the lesson.
Your welcome. Anytime.

hmmm….sounds like you two could maybe use a nice, candle-lit, aromatherapy evening. if she’s stiff and sore from injury, what a great time to break out a bottle of lavender oil and rub her down from head to toe. not only will it help with her stiffness but she’ll feel special and in the mood
plus, seeing her all shiny and lubed up will of course do things for you too
nothing like a nice evening of sensual touch, great aromas, and love.
just a suggestion from a non-married, romance addict.
Dfly, thanks much. Haven’t thought of lavender oil. I’m starting to think all this is non-function in my brain too.
