We were falling into the WORK/HOME/Bed rut for a short while. I decided we needed to start DATING again and so we now seek out plays, concerts..etc, as we did before we had kids (we are empty nesters now). It has been GREAT.
He has always bought me gifts, flowers at least once a week, and that has NEVER stopped. The sex was and IS great...but even that, regularly, can be part of a RUT. It was keeping that OUTSIDE thing going (or bringing it back) that WE needed.

How do YOU keep from falling in a rut.
