http://whathappycouplesdo.blogspot.com/2014/06/so.html
Friday, June 27, 2014. Hopefully you'll hang in there with the somewhat inconsistent posting of happy-stuff on this happy blog. Since and even before the Neat-Pete and Great-Kate storytelling, I've been working on a super-happy, super-top-secret new writing project that hopefully I can tell you all about some day soon! I hope you will agree - when you "see" it (a hint) - that it's worth the wait. For instance, did you see David Brooks' opinion piece in the NYTimes this week? Madly in love with him! When ...

But, I'm interrupting our regularly-scheduled programming to offer a seriously-appropriate sidebar to Kate and Pete's story, one that so perfectly emerged in the New York Times. Last week and made me think precisely about the thoughtful, intentional work Kate and Pete and every other really happy couple in the 21st century is doing - must. And today,...

What Happy Couples Do Blog: December 2013
http://whathappycouplesdo.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 13, 2013. Friday the (most lovely) 13th. Today is my 22nd wedding anniversary. Yes, it's Friday the 13th, and we chose a Friday (the 13th) in December 1991 to make public and official our happy-couple-status. So many people say "but why? Because we knew what was ahead wasn't anything about luck. It was going to be all about focus and hard work. And I've never been more in love. Is still today my best pal, my confidant, my hero and my rock. A page (literally) right out. We'll Get It Done.
