In case Spring Fever bit you hard and you’ve been out enjoying any nice weather in your area instead of keeping up on Lyn and I’s musings, here’s your handy Week in Review to catch you up on what we wrote about on:
Monday, April 14
Already this year I learned what “Love Is” from Families.com members and decided to note some of their secrets and lessons I’ve learned.
Because of a book she’s reading and learning from, Lyn wondered where are your priorities? The ones suggested in the book came as a shock to her and she explained why. (But then also why it made sense.)
Tuesday, April 15
Inspired by the raid on the polygamist compound in Texas, I shared some thoughts on polygamy.
In Say My Name Lyn reflected on the repetitive lyrics from a pop song and how important saying your spouse’s name can be.
I remembered Titanic and wondered what you would have done if you’d been faced with abandoning ship and your husband or going down with both.
Wednesday, April 16
I was very excited to announce that Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott’s book blog tour is coming to Families.com.
Lyn has sure been having some great questions lately. This time she wanted to know if there’s anything left to talk about without children around.
Thursday, April 17
If you turn on the news these days you’re likely to hear a worse than normal doom and gloom forecast for the economy. I wondered if there’s a way to make our marriages benefit from recession.
Lyn has great advice for new couples starting out who are trying to “keep up with the Jones”: don’t bother; it’s a waste of time.
Between her book and comments from fellow bloggers Lyn has learned why it’s important to make yourself a priority. (Not all the time, but at least once in a while.)
Friday, April 18
I reflected on other ways infidelity could add insult to injury.
Lyn wondered if you have a time when you feel most attractive. She read a study where times when women feel most attractive is very different from when their husband’s find them most attractive.
Saturday, April 19
I related how I was witness to a marriage miracle recently when my parents, who have been divorced nearly 28 years, finally made a peace of sorts.
Sunday, April 20
Lyn reflects on another lesson learned from the book she’s reading: dealing with your spouse’s choices. In particular, the not so great ones.
