Those Winter Blues

Do you ever feel sometimes like you and your partner are a little disconnected? Like the day to day stress of jobs, home and responsibility are seeping in between you? The Hubs, with his perfect timing and charm, said to me on Saturday, "You need a little retail therapy, don't you?" What a sweet man.

So, we made haste to Tyson's Corner Mall, where based on the sheer number of people crowding the sidewalks, no one could convince me that we are in a depression. I doubt that my grandparents were loaded down with Banana Republic and Victoria's Secret bags in the 1930s.

Retail therapy for him...

And for her.
