I think we need a topic on marriage. This is one of the hardest roles I play each day. It seems that I can never do anything right and am always trying to be more. It might be nice to have a forum.

I am not one of those women that went into marriage thinking it would be easy. My daughter is from a prior relationship, and although I was never married to him I was with him for 6 years. It was a tough relationship. So I knew being married is a choice. One that is made each day over and over agian. I wouldn't trade my husband for anything. We live in a house that is way too small on an income that is way too small. So we have stress. Plus I go to school and the kids are still small enough to require major attention. He works midnights and I work days. There are times that we only see eachother when we bicker. But under it all there is a love like no other. I am actually now following the flylady.net routine. At least the general idea. So far it has made a huge difference and my husband is dedicated to making the change together. We are reinventing the way the family lives day to day. So far, stress is already lighter.
