(good thing I wiser than to take marriage advice from a two time bitter divorcee) Apathy is not welcome in a healthy marriage.
::eyeroll:: If you never fight than neither of you care enough about the outcome to want to fight for it. I was once told by my Monster In Law that in a real true relationship there would never be fights. Hurtful words from someone you love injure far deeper than from an enemy. Don't say things in anger that will injure your loved ones soul. It meant that there were times you would fight but you had to fight fair. I learned from my parents that having a successful marriage didn't mean that you would never fight. When the moment came and the minister said those words we both believed that the other had remembered to tell him. On my wedding day both my husband and I forgot to tell the minister. That no matter what the issue we would work through it. "What God has joined together, let no man put asunder." We vowed before I wedding day that it would be forever. That was why in my wedding vows I wanted the words. At times admitting that I was looked upon like a freak of nature. I was the odd man out, my parents were still married to each other and it was their first marriage. Growing up I was surrounded by friends trying to survive their parents' divorces.

They gave me a great example of how to make a marriage succeed throughout many years. We sometimes fall behind on lessons, but our school is very understanding. With 5 kids illness circles the house like carrion scavengers taking one family member down after another. With 37 % needed in all subject by today. The pressure to hit our achievement goals in school lets off. They are going to lose it when they see what my parents got them for Christmas. With 5 kids that morning is always so fun and exciting. My wonderful husband will even sing various holiday carols on demand.Ĭhristmas is just around the corner. I love that Christmas music is everywhere. Even though nothing huge is planned, I am still looking forward to it. One more month to the end of this year as well! for gifts- we give each other our time and have fun going to the dump and thrift stores to get rid of stuff.I am thankful that it is the end of the month. We bought a cheap yard truck together and now instead of spending money on stuff we don't need. I started by writing down my big hairy audacious goal and posted it everywhere: fridge, steering wheel, bathroom mirror, computer etc.pretty soon I was past making plans and onto action! Now for birthdays and holidays we spend time helping each other purge, organize or clean something.

To anyone out there sitting in a house full of stuff and not knowing where to start. I am finally healing and moving past the past! This journey is truly life changing. Way more emotional than I thought it would be. Since then we have both been on a mission to clean out every room and space in our lives.
It all started when my mom read Marie Kondo's book. I had a goal to reduce my over all stuff by 75% by the end of the year last year and I did it! I still have more to do this summer. Last summer I filled this: Then had a Yuge Estate sale. If you're not wanting to buy new furniture (though with that furniture arrangement you really need two matching chairs), you may find you want to buy inexpensive, matching slipcovers for your existing pieces to create a more cohesive look. Some cushions on your breakfast chairs wouldn't be bad. You can bring the blue in on your curtain fabric if you like, or on pillows, or the upholstery of an accent chair. Bring in some black accents, as well as warm wood into the living room. A neutral paint is best (what you already have). I'm attaching photos of our last kitchen re-do I think they really demonstrate the power of paint! And I realize this post is a lot about your kitchen, not your living area, but I think ideas could flow from there. If possible, cutting out the panels of a couple of cabinet doors and replacing them with glass to display your pretty pieces would be great. I think you would shocked how much better your blue and white looks with white cabinetry, and the contrast with your floor would be so much better. I always put black granite in my kitchen (we have to move a lot because of a job), and I always paint the cabinets creamy white and use brushed nickel hardware. Once the seating arrangement is in place, you can decide where you want the bookcase and whether you need to replace what's against the staircase wall. Personally, I like the idea of a big square leather or upholstered ottoman. EJ610's basic furniture placement is exactly what I would have suggested with the possible exception of the round coffee table - I'm not crazy about them.
