Quote: what do you think about picking your corners and turning them into goals???
i mean, for me...
great idea...
since you haven't listed your corners yet I'll use some of the examples I gave..
there's a start...
why not list what you think your corners would be and try setting them up into goals.
LL family- spend one day each week as a family doing something together...
spend at least 10 min each night as a family (could just be a tickle fest if the kids are young enough..
share parenting so that neither parent feels like they are the only one doing it all
companionship- date night!!! if sitters are a problem then reserve on night each week for an in house date and try to get out as a couple at least once a month (hell just running erands together works for me)
love- hmmmmm I dunno how to work toward that one but I would imagine that if the "in love" feeling is what your after that may come along when working toward improving companionship...
financial- typically one partner handles the finances wich can leave the other feeling controlled or strained. it needent be that way...one party can be responsible for the paperwork but finances should be discussed.
have a plan a goal...something to work toward above just paying the bills..a vacation fund...a new deck fund...a remodeling fund etc.
