This week flew by and here we are at the weekend, taking a swift glance back over our shoulder.

In the News: Vetoed “Marriage” Bill in California Revisited takes a look at what’s happening in California – for real this time – this isn’t an April Fool’s Joke. In 2005, the California legislature passed a bill, which would legalize same sex marriage, but the Governor vetoed it. It looks like they are getting ready to pass the same bill again and the Governor will likely veto this one as well.

Home Repair: Balancing Spouse Responsibility is it important whether it’s on a major financial issue or struggling with the paper work and talking to contractors and so much more. I honestly believe that spouses work better together than they do if they are apart on an issue – their strengths and their weaknesses balance each other out. Whether it’s a hard job or an easy one, by working together – you can achieve what it is you’re aiming for.
