Today’s Dare: “Look back over the dares from previous days. Were there some that seemed impossible to you? Have you realized the need for God to change your heart and to give you the ability to love? Ask him to show you where you stand with him, and ask for the strength and grace to settle your eternal destination.” (The Love Dare, 94.)
Good morning! I decided the weekends are a challenge to blog on. Since this project and my blog are secrets, I really struggle getting in to write. I don’t lie to my honey, and he asks often what I am writing, so to avoid spilling Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “Prepare a special dinner at home, just for the two of you. The dinner can be as nice as you prefer. Focus this time on getting to know your spouse better, perhaps in areas you’ve rarely talked about. Determine to make it an enjoyable evening for you and your mate..” (The Love Dare, 89.)
Good morning! I had an incredibly rough day yesterday..My honey just started a new project. It is a project that I won’t give details on–lets just say it isn’t a good project. He did this about a year or so ago–and now, he decides to do it again. It is bad, and I don’t want to be a part of it. He knows how I feel. He does it anyway. I am trying my best to change–why can’t he? This is an obvious thing and it takes a few months. I cannot take a breath every day for 2 months and pretend it isn’t happening. I cannot know he is doing this and try to hide Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “Determine to guard your mate’s secrets (unless they are dangerous to them or you) and to pray for them. Talk with your spouse, and resolve to demonstrate love in spite of these issues. Really listen to them when they share personal thoughts and struggles with you. Make them feel safe.” (The Love Dare, 84.)
Good morning, everyone! I hope you all had wonderful evenings. I have found myself so exhausted by the end of the day, that I ignore my laptop and pay full attention to the couch. Last week was difficult and I am still living through the emotional ramifications of the financial messes I am currently working through. The “pre-love dare” me would have Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “ Begin praying for your spouse’s heart. Pray for three specific areas where you desire for God to work in your spouse’s life and in your marriage.” (The Love Dare, 79.)
Good morning! I failed to do my evening update last night, so I am sorry! I can say that as for the dare yesterday, there really wasn’t an update. Yesterday, I created a blast marketing campaign for my honey, in hopes of bringing him more business without having to market it himself. Out of respect for his hard work, I wanted to contribute work so he could chill on it a bit. I let him know I did that for him, and he said thank you! He seemed pretty happy with it. Any free marketing is helpful and appreciated!!
Today, I must pray. Pray for my honey’s heart. My honey has the heart of Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “ Choose a way to show honor and respect to your spouse that is above your normal routine. It may be holding the door for her. It might be putting his clothes away for him. It may be the way you listen and speak in your communication. Show your mate that he or she is highly esteemed in your eyes.” (The Love Dare, 74.)
Good morning, honorable one. 🙂 I hope you all had good nights! Today, I have been blessed with another day. Another day to wake up. Another day to love my children, honey, family and life. You are here reading this, so you have been blessed Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “Purposefully neglect an activity you would normally do so you can spend quality time with your spouse. Do something he or she would love to do or a project they’d really like to work on. Just be together. ” (The Love Dare, 69.)
Good morning! Happy Monday! What a busy, but good weekend! We all are guilty of spending too much time on electronic devices. How many of you sit and read your phone when you are watching television with your spouse? How many of you actually put away all electronics and just spend quality time with your honeys? I am guilty, for sure. When all is said and one and my work for the day is done, I sit down on my designated couch cushion (I’m a lot like Sheldon–nobody better be on my spot!) and chill, usually on my laptop or phone, while my honey chooses lame Read the rest of this entry »

Today’s Dare: “Talk with your spouse about establishing healthy rules of engagement. If your mate is not ready for this, then write out your own personal rules to “fight” by. Resolve to abide by them when the next disagreement occurs. ” (The Love Dare, 64.)
WOW! I am late! I will take my morning and evening update and combine them into one post today. It’s been a busy day which involved me being pulled into every direction, from the time I woke up this morning until now. Even now, I am finding it challenging to get a moment of peace. Every five seconds, somebody needs me!! SO–I will be pretty quick, but hopefully thorough.
Currently, we do not have rules to fight by. I have tried to bring up things that my honey does that isn’t necessarily fair–but it seems to make Read the rest of this entry »
