Modern Marriage

A friend sent me the link below from an old coffee ad. Boy have we come far in our modern marriages - or have we? What irks you most about this video clip?

February's Column

I hope everyone survived the joy, heartache, and romance of the holiday season. Are you finding storage space for all your newly acquired property? It's hard to ignore all those piles when you work from home. Anybody ready to tackle healthier choices?

I came back from a lovely holiday to write my next column for the print magazine's February issue: Planning a Local Wedding. Apparently, there are folks around us who are planning on getting married, despite all evidence to the contrary.




I thought: I bet you guys all have good stories to share about the first time you had to attend a wedding after the traumatic ending of a significant relationship.

How was that different or difficult?
Any funny stories, suggestions, or cautionary tales?
Was it different for the divorced, widowed, and never marrieds?
How are those differences similar?

Maybe your comments will be in the Singles Column in the February issue.

(As a side note, I am bumping my planned Single in Church column up another month. It has been difficult to do the necessary research during the holiday season and I want to present more local information.)
