5 New Ideas For A Date Night That’s Easy On Your Wallet And Heavy On The Fun

Coordinating schedules with my husband to even have time to sit down together to watch a movie without somebody falling asleep is tough. He goes right to school from work and I work from home managing two businesses and a toddler. So it's likely that in the evening when my husband and I see each other that we're dog tired and mumbling, "Hey... you sexy, but goodnight!" I often loathe how crazy … [Continue reading...]

Why My Wedding Day Wasn’t The Happiest Day Of My Life

I started a summer internship (that I was hoping to turn into a full-time job) about six weeks before my wedding day. When I asked my boss for three days off (you know, to get married and have an abbreviated honeymoon), she squealed. "Yay! Of course you can have those days off!!!! Congratulations!! Weee!!" I just stared at her. I was never one of those women who had been planning their … [Continue reading...]

I'm about to make some highly un-sexy confessions here. For a while, when my mojo was missing and our sex life was on the fritz, I began tracking how often my husband and I had sex to see if our frequency issues were a real thing or just a figment of my imagination.

The wife just started a blog about their lifestyle (no pictures, but if you're conservative the language is a little bold) and can I say I'm a new fan?

[Learning To Let Go] Removing Yourself from Unhealthy Relationships

Even though I’d rather forget, I still remember my first unhealthy and toxic relationship. I fell in love at summer camp. I was 15. In between long days of activities with campers he and I would exchange glances and smiles at the lake or during dinner. It wasn’t long before he asked me out. The first time he yelled at me I freaked out. The first time he pushed me I wondered what I did … [Continue reading...]

Why Learning Your Love Language Is Crucial To Your Relationship

A friend recently asked me if I was able to write down for my husband exactly what I needed from him—the tangible and intangible things that he could do that would make me feel loved, appreciated, wanted and needed. It was something that I hadn't even thought to do but once it was presented to me I wondered, can I even make a list like that? And I realized I didn't really know if I … [Continue reading...]
