In our church meeting last night we were reading First Corinthians. It’s a long letter, and in one section the author, Paul, gives some advice about marriage. Some of what he says is a bit odd if for no other reason than its distant context. Sex, for example, was a common aspect of worship in […]
Kerri’s post the other day on arguing when others are around has garnered a few comments, so I thought I’d follow it up with a few tips from my own brains.
Tip #1 - It’s Not About Winning
This may be the hardest single thing that some of us have to learn. That competitive spirit runs so […]
I’ve been playing around a bit with my guitar, and lately I’ve been on a U2 kick. I looked up the tab to One a week or two ago.
Stop right there.
I bet most of us think of it as a love song. Something romantic, right? Well, have you listened to the lyrics lately?
Is it getting […]
I’m sure you’ve probably heard about the California Supreme Court’s decision to overturn two state laws banning gay marriage. I certainly have. I subscribe to a few RSS feeds related to marriage, and my reader has been swamped with the news and resulting commentary.
Those of you who have been around for a while will no […]
Right then… I think it’s been awhile since Kerri and I have had a good gripe, so I figure it’s time. Despite all the wonderful things we say each other (Her gamer post was really sweet.), there are in fact a few things that each of us do to get on the other’s nerves. For […]
Kerri’s post on volunteerism reminded me of a decision we made round here to have an open door policy. Any time, any day; we’re usually cool with guests. While pretty much all of our friends are at least “short-notice” kind of people, no notice is fine too… though you obviously take the chance that we’re […]
It has been a busy week of evenings here at Breezemoor, so while skimming a few hundred RSS headlines I came across a question that struck me as interesting.
Is Marriage Necessary?
At the risk of waxing philosophic so late at night, I’ll pose a brief answer and then let you, Intrepid Reader, put your two cents […]
Yesterday, up until about 4:15 or so, the worst part of my day had been when I drove away from the Taco Bell drive through having forgotten my change. I was out a little less than $3… no biggie. Then came some bad news at work, and my day collapsed. In the big picture, it […]
You’re Doing It Wrong!
At the very least, that’s a good rule of thumb when you’re on a vacation. Lest you think Kerri and I are brilliant all the time, let me share the story of how we almost ruined our vacation…
It was Thursday afternoon, and we had just completed our afternoon hike. It was late […]
OK, while writing my “Go-To” Gift Lists the other night, I noticed something. A key… THE key, if you will, to getting your spouse a good gift. I almost said the perfect gift, but perfect is quite the claim. I’ll say “good” and leave it at that.
Now, if you in fact have found the perfect […]
