My husband is in an 18 month training program for his company.  It is almost like college courses, he has to study a lot (even on weekends).  So without even realizing I was doing the dare.. I gave him space on Sunday.  He had studied so hard all week and continued his immersion into the coursework through the weekend, so I gave him space to just relax.  No worries about the kids.. just time to himself to do something for himself.  We talked after the kids where in bed.. and he said it was nice to be able to just sit on the patio and read a book in quiet.  I told him I was glad he got that time.  And really I was.. I watched some shows on my laptop while the kids watched cartoons on the TV and the girls took turns doing my hair (I end up with some crazy/frizzy hair do's).
