Do you have a special thing you do with someone regularly?

My husband and I have never done anything on a certain time table or schedule. We have always been "flying by our shirt tails". But tonight I was sitting here watching my daughter and her husband get ready to go out. Every Monday night she cooks dinner (I think they eat out a lot so this cooking at home is special to them) and then after they eat she gets all dressed up (he's already dressed in a nice suit when he gets home) and they go out to a place where they rent a privet room and Karaoke together for an hour or two. I was thinking to myself how sweet that is. She is 45 and he's 52 so it's not like they are young kids.

So is there something you do with someone, doesn't have to be a spouse or lover, it could be anyone, on a regular basis? If so, who and what? Now I want to do something special at a regular time each week or month. 2 or 3 times a year we go to the movies and 2 or 3 times a WEEK we go to the Super Wal-mart, does that count? :) :)

Yes, just yesterday in fact. Hubby works late into the night and I'm up with the chickens to get my daughter to school. Days can go by where hubby and I see each other briefly. One of us either sleeping or going out the door. Yesterday was one of those rare mornings when we were awake together. We went to breakfast and it was wonderful. Back in the day we both worked a midnight shift so breakfast was our late night dinner before bed.
 

Not too special, but we like it, every weekday me and hubby go for a long walk in the park, usually accompanied by our doggie. If we leave the dog home for any reason, we'll take a more isolated walk in a wooded area where dogs aren't allowed. Many times we'll see wildlife like deer, coyotes, owls, even a Bald Eagle now and then.
 
My husband and I meet for lunch every Tuesday. Today my sister joined us because she went to radiation with me and we met him when we got back. Usually it`s just the two of us though. All of our married life we have had a "date night"-either Friday or Saturday. But now with foster kids that can`t be left home alone,we are having lunches instead.
 
Each Sunday morning, a bunch of us snowbirds get together for breakfast. We've been doing this for 15 years now. So many have passed but the tradition still goes on. At times, there are as many as a dozen or more of us.

That's cool, Pappy!

Anything fancy, or just a local low-key breakfast / brunch place?
 
Maybe every two Months or so we meet up with our oldest son and his wife and another couple and go to the local VFW and do some two steppin and karaoke..
