I took January off but I am proud to be back today! Lets see…I am still journeying. December was a good month. Rob and I welcomed a beautiful baby girl named Raven…a teacup Chihuahua you didn’t think WE had a baby, did you? LOL Life is good right now. My father in law passed in August and my mom was in the hospital for the first part of the year and I can honestly say it has brought us closer. In 2011 we plan to travel the world, enjoy one another even more, and live as the king and queen of our castle. 

I am getting more comfortable in my role as a wife and always open to feedback from other wives…I feel I can always learn from others experience so please feel free to share. That’s all I have right now folks, be sure to check out Gossiper’s Singe & The City blog. Until next time…

Whoever painted it to be a picture of two people in some far away land living happily ever after, left out the part which consisted of realism. While it IS fun and exciting, it is also a full time job. I pray daily that God helps me to be the best wife I can possibly be, make the best decisions for me and my family, and be the help meet to Rob the way God designed. I have to understand anything worth having takes worth and marriage is no different. I enjoy being a wife and while it doesn’t come with an instruction book I feel I am doing a pretty good job. Communication is THE number one tool for any relationship and as long as we keep the lines of communication open I feel we will be just fine. With the holiday season is here in full effect I try to take time to reflect on the things most important to me. I love life right now and thank God for the awesome blessings He has given me.

Since in this life we all will have tests and trials, the test is not the major issue. It’s how you view the test/situation and the action you take to get on common ground is what’s important.

I enjoy being a wife but again being married comes with no manual. Its all trial and error. As long as two people are coming together to live as one (especially since men are from mars and women are from venus) there will be a fair amount of challenges. I love Rob with all my heart and soul and I will be the first to admit I am still learning what my role is as a wife but I am grateful to have a loving husband who is just as eager and excited about his role. When challenges or conflicting views arise we try our best to communicate our thoughts with one another and be honest about our feelings…so far so good. So as usual I thank you for following me and always welcome feedback…make sure to check out Gossiper’s Single & The City blog. Until next time…

I can’t lie its hard sometimes, but I guess that’s what sacrifice is all about. I have to remember just like I have personal goals, so do/did my husband and although we may not accomplish them when we would like, together we are able to get to them in the right timing. No one ever said marriage was easy especially when I want what I want when I want, but it is a rewarding journey to take with the person I love. Continue following me and make sure to show love to Gossiper’s Single & The City. Until next time…

Not only did my husband lose his father, we drove to Los Angeles, California so he could plan the funeral and memorial services. Although I wasn’t that close to my father in law, it still hurt to watch my husband go through the emotional and mental loss. All I could do was try to console him and let him know I was there for him and loved him very much. 

Surprisingly that time actually brought us closer together. It allowed us to focus on what’s really important in life, and that’s living life. Expressing our love for one another (and our family) is important, traveling, completing goals, and laughing often have all moved to the top of our to do list. The month I am still journeying and still learning about love, life, and marriage. Check out Gossiper’s Singe & The City Blog. Until next time…

We don’t have as much time for each other as we would like while we continue to pursue our dreams. We support one another as we both follow our own personal goals but it is a balancing act, especially for a wife. I don’t ever want anything to become more important or take up more of my time than Rob; however I still have goals I want to complete. Dilemma huh?

Well as I continue on this journey I am now trying to find a balancing act to make my husband feel like the king he is, while continuing to be the independent business woman he fell in love with. Marriage doesn’t come with a rule book, you aren’t born with the do’s and don’t’s of it. Its all trial and error. I am enjoying being on this journey. It makes me think outside of the box and be creative with my time. Continue following me…I love feedback so feel free to share. Check out Gossiper’s Single & The City blog. Until next time…

Life is all about change and learning and so far I am enjoying learning more about my role and changing for the better. I recently celebrated my one year wedding anniversary and it felt great. Everyone told us how hard the first year would be but to the contrary I didn’t find it that “hard” at all. Anytime two people from different back grounds and life styles join together to live as one, there will be some challenges to overcome but I never found them hard. Just made us think outside of the box a bit J. I am loving this journey I am on and excited to see where all its going to take me. Continue this journey with me and don’t forget to check out Gossiper’s Single & the City blog. Until next time…

It is so weird to think that next month will make one whole year…wow time has flown. Well in this edition I will keep it short and sweet. As I continue my journey I have realized how important it is to keep your dreams and goals alive. Many times (from talking to friends and family) when women get married, they put their dreams on the back burner for the family. The family becomes priority and more often then not they lose their individual identity and take on the identity of the family. Not only is it important for YOU to keep your identity, the family needs you to keep your identity. I have spoken with of course my husband, as well as other married men or men in long term relationships and have found that men want us to keep our goals. It is our drive often times that attracts them to us…ladies did you know that?!! I didn’t!

Well as I journey I am continuing to pursue my dreams and aspirations of writing and am happy to say that I have a true supporter in my corner…my husband. He encourages me and helps me stay focused when I get distracted. His belief in me helps me to believe in myself when I have doubts. Ladies, in relationships, I challenge you to focus on your goals and dreams. Keep your identity alive. Don’t neglect your family but don’t lose sight of yourself. Its all about balancing. Continue this journey with me and as always I welcome the feedback. Check out Gossiper’s Single & The City…Until next time…

Not every test is “bad” it may be a test of finances, time (I have mentioned working conflicting schedules), family/friend, etc. but what I am learning that we can choose how we react to our test. I am happy I have a husband that during any test we’re faced with we are able to make the best out of it and actually allow it to bring us closer. When it comes to the test of time, we just get creative about how we spend the time we DO have together. If it’s a test of finances we, again, just get creative about how we entertain one another for a bit. Its all about choices and how we choose to allow it to affect us. I don’t have much to say this month other than I am truly enjoying my journey and the adventures each day brings as a wife. I feel blessed and just asks that God continues to teach me how to be the best wife possible. I always welcome feedback as I feel we can all learn from one another J continue journeying with me and don’t forget to check out Gossiper’s Single & The City blog…until next time…
