I’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling.

But I’m going to find it.  This is not the first time it’s been lost, we have both lost it from time to time.  This time I lost it.  I am sure I just misplaced it.  It has got to be here somewhere between that college paperwork, sport schedules and report cards.

I have excuses for losing it.  It’s been such a busy spring.  Megan was home for a month then I had to get her off to an internship in Atlanta with Chick-fil-a™.  Emily graduated, and we had celebration after celebration amidst finalizing college scholarship decisions.  And the boys needed a lot of extra motivation to finish that last quarter without blowing their GPA.

To make matters worse, not only did I misplace that lovin’ feeling-I replaced it with a grudging feeling-Why doesn’t he (Mark) help me more?  He never notices how pressed I am.  I am slammed at work and at home and he wants me to do what?  Grudgin’ is a bad feeling, but at the time it feels…good.

Today my hunt for that lovin’ feeling becomes a priority.  Grudgin’ is out.  Mark is going to be in shock!  He probably won’t recognize me.  I am going to be there when he gets home.  I’m going to greet him when he walks in.  I am going to follow him up to our room and hang up his clothes for him.  I am going to make dinner.  I am going to take him for a walk on the Bayshore.  I’m going to take him home and then… well, I am hoping I will have found that lovin’ feeling.
