This is Love month!
Carl and I are taking the month of June to prepare for our marital bliss!
Out of respect for Carl's privacy I won't be blogging many details, but I will tell you, kind reader, about our plans.
I researched different "pre-marital" exercises and information on line, checked out some podcasts on itunes, and finally decided to go with my original idea:
Several years ago-while in the midst of previous relationship, I bought a book I heard about from Oprah (my bff) Called "Getting the Love you Want" by Dr. Harville Hendrix
This book was to fix said relationship....It was not a miracle worker...
I did find it, however, to be a very interesting and enlightening book that I have kept all of these years. And while I feel Carl and I have a very secure and loving relationship, I think the exercises detailed in the book could help us understand and respect each other more, and help to build an even more loving and supportive partnership.
That being said, I did not think Carl would even be interested in doing this, or letting me blog about it, but he proved me wrong by being entirely open. I am one lucky woman.
So, Saturday we started with the first of 10 exercises, and it was actually fun! I look forward to our next "session." We have decided to do them at our leisure so we may not finish all of the exercises before the end of this month but definitely before our wedding. I will be giving you updates on how we are doing.
(April update: Carl and I have taken up tennis once or twice a week and I have been lifting weights a couple days a week too!)
(May update: I just finished my first container of floss!)
