Moving Homes – It Gets Worse Before it Gets Better
Hello everyone and sorry for my belated post. I’ve been busy moving homes and planning the new look for my blog. New home, new blog, new life! I decided to make a lot of changes recently, which sync-ed with our recent home relocation, associated with my husband’s job. He was offered the job and an apartment nearby, which is also brand new and fully-furnished.

Global Family Day
On the 1st of January the world marks the Global Family Day, or as also known One Day of Peace and Sharing. I decided to write about this day, because having a family is hard work you need to do everyday and I have a lot to share for the 1 1/2 years that I have been married. I also chose to write about this day because it coincides with the first day of the new year and I hope a lot of you will do some evaluation. More…

Turn Your Husband’s Bad Day Into a Great Day II
When you get married, especially as early as I have, it is quite normal to have certain expectations of what marriage will be like – blue skies and heart-shaped everything everywhere. Yes, well, it turned out life is a bit more complicated than that. There are times when you have a bad day for no apparent reason. Or at least you don’t always know what you are going through. In any case, everyone has these moments and it is our duty as wives to attend to our husbands when they are going through the same.

Turn Your Husband’s Bad Day Into a Great Day
Even though marrying Stephen was the best thing that ever happened to me, sometimes I just have a bad day and I have to admit a defeat. In days like this when Stephen comes back from work tired and stressed out, I just wish I knew how to make it all disappear.

My husband and I love to light candles when we dine together, even if its just an ordinary evening. It just makes it so much more special and cosy. When you have a candle lit dinner, however, by accident, someone knocks the candle down, the melted wax spills and you have a horrible stain on your tablecloth. It probably looks bad, but there is no need to take it to the dry cleaner. You can manage to remove the stain if you follow these simple steps.
