Presidential Treatment

One of the less-than-great things about my work is that we don't get President's Day off as a holiday. I mean, yes, they were the founders upon which this country was established but why celebrate that, right? ... So while I begrudgingly got ready for work on Monday, and the rest of the country was sleeping in to gear up for their day of fun, I was in a less-than-perky mood.

Joey of course had the day off too and was kind enough to wake up with me and pretend he wasn't completely glowing from his paid day off. I put on my coat, grabbed my purse and headed out the door only to be followed out by my husband, blanket in hand. I was confused to say the least, but he led me to the car and told me to get in and enjoy the ride! He gave me a surprise ride to work, tucked me in with the blanket, and had Starbucks and breakfast waiting for me in the car!!!! My day immediately got better and once again I was smiling. He kinda has that effect on me.

Unfortunately at work, the day kind of dragged. Mostly because I knew there was fun to be had outside of work and I was unfortunately not a part of it. Very mature of me, I know. But this was me by around 3pm...

Jen Givens, Worker Bee

Apparently that coffee from Starbucks wore off and I was feeling it. Well my husband, the same man that made my morning wonderful, knew I was having a hard time with the rest of my day and decided to change that, yet again...

Here's what I was greeted with when my ride came to pick me up from work that evening...

Joey Givens, Master Chauffer 

Yep, here he was, wig, sailor hat, blazer AND driver gloves all on hand to give me my ride. In case you were wondering, yes he had Hall & Oates blasting too. As if I wasn't already 100% happier from the day, he pulled out the kicker... my IN FLIGHT MEAL!!!!

Sliced Pears, Carrots, Hummus, Macaroons,  Ice Water & Daiquiri 

 I could not keep my jaw from dropping. By far the coolest ride I have ever had!!!! He even found a CapriSun-type Daiquiri  for me!!! And no mom, I did not drink the alcohol in the car.

But it would have been HILARIOUS!!!

Actually I lied, the kicker was in fact when I got home. Joey spent his day cleaning our house, doing laundry, and getting groceries JUST to make my day better.

So now my new favorite day of the year is President's Day. I can't wait to see what next year's non-holiday has in store for me!!!!!

Best. Husband. Ever.
