So we survived!! And it wasn't nearly as bad as we thought it would be! It was still boring as could be, but it wasn't that bad. My biggest complaint is that if you're going to prepare people for marriage, shouldn't there be people there who are maybe married and can share how they have handled issues. I get that communication and making budgets are important. And that is something we have been doing and working on. But just standing up by a podium and telling us that we need to do this and fill out a bunch of worksheets ain't going to do it. We both agreed that the best part was when a couple who had been married for 45 years told us about their lives. However, there was no interaction, and they were gone by the time we go back from lunch. I really think that if the church wants to "prepare" people for marriage, then their marriage prep class should involve, oh I don't know, MARRIED PEOPLE WHO CAN SHARE AND WORK WITH US!!!!
Now on to more fun, Mom and Brad are joining us for a Rays game tomorrow! Very excited to get to see them and hopefully get to see the Rays win!!! Well I'm off, dinner and laundry await!
Marriage is a rollercoaster - you're either soaring high or you hit the low. Hoping yours is less bumpy than mine!!! Enjoy the ride!
