Just don’t ask who the horse is!
So, part* of Family and Parenting is marriage. Marriage is one of my most favorite subjects. In fact, I plan to pursue that Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy that I put off right after getting my B.S. in Psychology. (I, um, was still a newlywed and you know, sometimes you just put off stuff like that.) In the mean time, I mostly just like to talk about marriage and relationships. I was excited to see that Mrs. Fussypants had announced her intentions of putting up a site about marriage for wives like me…extraordinary, if I do say so myself!
My biggest pet peeve in talking about relationships is when spouses start bashing their other halves. And I’ll be honest, I wasn’t quite sure if Fussy’s site would fit the bill in terms of being helpful but not catty. But, I should have known better because Fussy is well intentioned and very funny. And practical too, as seen in this post about real ways to keep your marriage on solid ground during the sleep deprived years.
Oops. I forgot to resolve my asterisk. That’s almost as bad as not resolving a chord.
*The author (me) acknowledges that not all parenting happens within “traditional” marriage and that not all marriages are “traditional”.
There, that’s better. (I hope.)
“Fussy is well intentioned and very funny”
I love that. Thank you, Malia!
