Monday's: the "The Love Dare" weekly update.
So here is my first honest "Love Dare" update- I am shocked & outraged to learn I am really a selfish person (At least way more than I thought I was). It was so-so easy trying to not say anything negative.

(It was easy not to say something negative "about" my spouse, harder to remember not to say anything negative at "all"),
The unexpected gesture was hard as a SAHM I do so much (see I told you I was selfish) to try to think of something I didn't do already. (Whew! that day we happened to be at the movie & I offered to go refill the popcorn during the movie - that was unexpected of me. Usually gallant hubby does that kinda of stuff)
Today is Saturday & I am supposed to buy something for him that shows I was thinking of him today, hum....... I think I will pick him up some special kinda of breakfast treat at the store (that only he likes)
Well here is the low down: I thought I would do the "love dare" to make "our" marriage better, and I am sure it is, but I have also been learning that "I" need to be a better person. (It's amazing what one can observe about oneself when she slows down and pays attention to herself- ugh!!!!) I will update same time, same place next week.
*****Oh, Guess what! I just learned a won a give away from Sweet tea blog (http://lagirlsweetea.blogspot.com/) Yeah!! I won a Jennifer Cruise book on cd, All for entering Sweet Tea's slacker cook recipe drawing. If you have not checked out her blog you will have to!
Congrats on winning and on working on improving yourself. It is a hard road, isn't it?

They seem to close ice cream shoppes around here in the winter months. I guess they figure they wouldn't get enough business in the winter. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
I will have to look more into this. Sounds like a great way to improve on things.
ReplyDeleteI am totally inspired to do this. We could always use some improvement!
ReplyDeleteHmmm..."The Love Dare," I would most likely fail! I should definitely look at myself and all MY faults:-) Regarding Miss Nancy...it's www.SouthernLady-Nancy.blogspot.com. I can tell you her site takes a long to load when I visit.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your blog, it looks like a land of dreams. I especially love the quote from Rosalind Russell--that's who my dad named me for. Roz
ReplyDeleteLove Dare Huh?...I think I could be Queen! I do so much for my hubby that it makes me Gag sometimes.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your win!
Shoot. I said I was going to do this but I haven't managed to get started yet. Oops.
