Well, after one of our usual Sunday afternoon’s watching football together…a favorite weekly activity with hubby, we did something a little
different. On the way home Shelby and I stopped at Borders Bookstore, I was looking to purchase a highly recommended book on leadership called, Tribal Leadership. This wasn’t a planned activity, BUT thank goodness I am married to a compromising man (that was also in the mood to visit the bookstore himself!)
Well, here’s the part that I wanted to blog about. So, we walk into the bookstore and naturally, we both gravitate to our favorite sections…Shelby heads off to the relationship section and I head over to the self help/personal growth section.
It turns out that both the relationship section and the self help section sit right next to the….romance section. NO, not the harlequin romance book section, the “Put some ROMANCE and steam in your relationship” romance section!! LOL! I think you know the one I’m talking about…YEP, they’ve got one of those at BORDERS!!
Well anyway, funny enough…being the kind of wife (and coach) that knows keeping the steam and romance in a marriage is something even the best couples must make consistent efforts to do over time….I made my way over to THAT section immediately!
After browsing around and reading the backs of a few “interesting” and somewhat compelling options, I decided to combine both of our interests and add a little “SELF HELP in the RELATIONSHIP by way of some extra ROMANCE” to our library:-)
My hubby chuckled and of course agreed….extra romance is always good!!
The evening was an awesome one:-)

WOW! Ok…I saw the section at Borders and ran in the opposite direction, after a peek at the back of a couple of “interesting” titles. I think I may have been more comfortable if my hubby were with me. I will give it a try! Thanks you two!
