Rules of this Blog

1. For every complaint about your spouse you must list a compliment.
2. If you fall off the balance beam, you must get back on and try again.
3. The balance between irritation and lauging is love.
4. Marriage cannot succeed without balance.
5. The more you practice on the balance beam, the better the marriage will be.

The One Track Mind

1. Complaint: Daughter woke me up at midnight with stomach hurting. Went downstairs and comforted her through night of being sick (every 20 minutes she'd vomit and I'd clean out the bowl, rinsed out her mouth, comforted her, tried to sleep, then repeat.) At 6 AM went back to bed. As soon as I got into bed, spouse reached for me wanting to be intimate after I just told him I'd been up all night with our daughter. When I asked him why he would try such a thing, his response was "well, you were awake" !!!

2. Compliment: He build a fire in the fireplace because he knew I was cold; lazyboy chair wasn't working and he immediately fixed it so I could put my feet up.
