So. You and your partner think that you’re ready to take the next step in your relationship and acquire a baby mammal of some kind. For the purposes of this blog I’m going to assume that is a pet and not a baby human because I have no experience acquiring children (that sounds so …
Finding furniture for our house can sometimes be a real chore. I have already mentioned Seth’s penchant for picking up nearly anything off of the curb and bringing it home. But one topic upon which we can have an especially difficult time agreeing is when it comes to upholstered pieces like couches and chairs. Kayla …
I was listening to a morning radio show on my way into work a couple of days ago, and they were talking and laughing about when they lie to their spouse about their spending. I wish I was joking. They didn’t call it lying of course. One of the hosts was talking about her “shopping …
This is a joint post. We figured it might be fun to share some of the things we disagree about and get some outside opinions on the matter.
