Posted Monday, July 23, 2007 8:05 AM

DH and I had a good weekend. Friday night, we went bowling for our friend Mary's birthday and I bowled the best I have in my entire life! We played three games and I got a 119, 125, and 145. I was amazed! DH didn't bowl that well though (he had an off

what's your workout schedule?

Posted Wednesday, July 18, 2007 2:59 PM

I can barely walk around today because yesterday I did a 45 min strength training workout video (one of my favorites--Lift Weight to Lose Weight with Kathy Smith). It is such a good workout--my legs always feel like jello afterwards, which is good because

desire for intimacy?

Posted Tuesday, July 17, 2007 8:53 AM

Last night DH and I had a fight. I told him that I wanted to spend more quality time together, talking and enjoying one another, instead of just spending time in the same room doing our own thing. He took it personally, like he wasn't being a good husband

Long engagements

Posted Friday, July 13, 2007 7:52 PM

Maybe it's just me but it seems like couples these days are engaged for longer than a lot of couples date before getting married. I think it is a result of numerous different things: couples living together before they get married, not seeing engagement

Feels like I'm living at work

Posted Wednesday, July 11, 2007 7:38 AM

Does anyone else feel like they live at work? To me, it feels like the workday crawls by but the night flies. I get home from work, eat dinner, go on a run, read a bit, and it seems like it's already time to go to bed--so I can get up the next morning

We finally got our thank you cards printed so we can start writing and sending them out. And when I say finally, I mean that this has been about a month-long process. We wanted to put one of our wedding pictures on the card and so originally, we were

Finally writing--Unique living situation

Posted Thursday, July 05, 2007 1:30 PM

I have put off writing in my blog, since I thought I'd probably write once and then forget about it. Part of me doesn't believe that anyone else will actually read my entries (so this will end of being a sort of electronic diary). But since I am bored
