You Know Your Wife Needs a Date when....

1.  You can't remember the last date you went on

2. You find her trying to give herself some me time by trying to give herself her own pedicure and manicure... but finding her getting frustrated because her kids are crawling all over her like a jungle gym.

3.  You find yourself making marketing plans to have your kids be the next new big weight loss program, because you see your wife can't even get two bites in before she has to get up from the table.  Or, because by the time she gets to her dinner it's already cold and she is too tired to heat it up again.

4.  She begins to tell you about all the fun vacations people are going on that she sees on Facebook.

5.  You find her excited to just be in the same car as you.

6.  On your Costco run she gets dressed up.  

7.  She takes you down memory lane about all the fun dates you have had.

8. You find that you have plenty of choices to pick from at RedBox.

9.    You find her putting up White Christmas lights in the back patio hoping that you see it as an opportunity for you to make something romantic out of it.

10.  You find her taking Myspace like profile pics of herself because she is excited that she got out of her gym clothes!

( 9 and 10 I would consider to be red zone stages)

I'm Marissa Ettinger who is head over heals for her husband David Ettinger but approves this message!

And this "myspace" picture taking lady is going on a date this SATURDAY! 

Hope this makes all you date deprived mommas out there smile and laugh.  Either, at the funny things we do or just at me.  Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
