Mixing it up in My Marriage: Otherwise Known As I Watch Too Much Food Network With My Husband
I do not have a normal marriage.
I repeat. I do not have a normal marriage. I am not sure I know anyone who does.
Yet, don't we all expect relationships straight from the Lifetime network? No, no not the psychodrama murder thy wife ones. You know. The Hallmark, Anne of Green Gables, Wear a tiara, and live happily ever after marriages.
Anyway, I try to challenge that happily ever after yawnfest by pushing my husband. He lately has become a grumpapus. So what do I do after cleaning, packing up the kids, and going to various after school activities until 8:30 tonight?
After he's worked a 12 hour day which I am sure is really, really stressful because his work environment is all mohawks, flip flips, and Yoda T-Shirts and rhymes with Cram-as-many-pretty-things-on-to-my-wish-list-a-zon.

Gawd, I hope his snot is not one of the ingredients.
So what about you? What challenge are you going to give your husband tonight?
