Not sure if this qualifies as piecing or not...

I posted this in the "Tools for Piecing" thread, but I wanted to add them here so I can always find them.

MWD posted a list of New Year's Resolutions for 2010 to work towards a better relationship; these are in the order they were posted.

#10: Start by setting relationship goals for 2010. Forget richer, thinner or healthier and ask yourselves, "what specifically would we have to do differently for us to feel closer and more connected this year?"

#9: Vow to spend more time together. Plan regular date nights that are sacred time alone.

#8: Make sex and passion a priority even if it has been on the back burner during 2009.

#7: Hold hands and touch affectionately every day.

#6: Take a marriage seminar together to improve your relationship IQ.

#5: Every day do something for your spouse that isn't your favorite thing to do. Stretch outside your comfort zone.

#4: Try harder to understand than to be understood.

#3: Don't let arguments get destructive. Take a time out when things get too heated.

#2: Develop a NEW common interest or hobby.

#1: Start the year with a clean slate - forgive. Remember, forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.
