Does your marriage "rock"? Some will say yes, some will say no. Only a few will take a moment to think about it, consider the facts and consult their spouse. Me, I'm one of the few.
After a great day with Jeff today (our version of Date Day!), I came home happy and tired. Not so much tired, but just unmotivated to do a lot of work. So instead, I spent the evening surfing Pinterest - which is where I ran across a posting titled "100 Ways to Make Your Marriage Rock". I think we do a pretty good job of it already, but it's always worth the minute or two to see what we're missing out on.
Here are some of the things we DON'T do that were on the list....
8. Listen to music together by sharing ear buds. (I don't think so.)
20. Look to him to make the big decisions. (I don't have enough time tonight to comment on that one.)
26. Fight Naked. (Ummmm, no. Really, who does that?)
42. Meet him at the door. (I admit it. I try to do it but not every day.)
51. Wash and vacuum her car and keep it full of gas. (Yep, that's really on the list. I'm not making it up!)
78. Read a book out loud together. (I'm at a loss for words.)
85. Sit on the same side of the booth in a restaurant. (We make fun of people that do that. Elbow room = a good marriage.)
91. Make art together. (Jeff won't set foot in the craft room. No chance of that.)
98. Share furniture. Sit on his lap. (I'm still laughing.)
What I took from this is that the crazy things we don't do DON'T matter. It's the other 91 things on the list that we do that matter. But it was still good for a chuckle.
