My lovely cousin
Caitlin is a little obsessed (in a good way, not the creepy,weird stalker-
ish kind of way) over a blog called
Confession of a young married couple. It's a blog about an adorable young couple's struggles, triumphs and lessons learned during their marriage. I first read an article the blog author, Kate wrote on
keeping the flame burning in a marriage and couldn't have agreed with her more. Three hours and two cups of coffee later, I was hooked and pretty much felt I had known her for years. In fact, the whole family has a blog and they are kind of a big deal in the blogging world.
So of course I tell my wonderful husband, Luis about my newest addiction and suggest he start following the husband, Chris over in his
Man Cave. He completely shut me down and said he could care less about what two people he doesn't even know have to say. Well, Uh....that is all I needed to hear after being apart for 3 weeks so I proceeded to rip into him about how insensitive he was and needs to put as much effort into our marriage as Chris (whom i don't even know)does his and I wanted him to be as excited to see me everyday as he is to see a buck during hunting season, blah, blah, blah.
Once I calmed down and realized how
incredibly ridiculous I sounded considering the fact he doesn't even know what a blog is and refuses to get with the times and join any social networking whatsoever I sent him a sweet text saying I loved him and how amazing he is to us and that I overreacted
yada,
yada.
His reply "Fine Jodi I will check out the blog"
