[QUOTE="DavisBeefmasters, post: 637134, member: 2263"] Best said by a minister at a friends wedding... he asked an older couple married for 50+ years the secret to a successful marriage. The older gentleman said "It's easy. We agreed up front that I would make all the major decisions and she would make all the minor decisions... and in over 50 years, I'm proud to say there's been no major decisions to be made" Seriously, we have an agreement and "code words" for each other... example if one of us is working on a project (fixing something in the barn, fixing something in the kitchen, etc.), and say it's not necessarily going as planned... if the other one decides to offer their opinion and it's not wanted either of us can say "stay in the truck"... and the other must keep the rest of their opinions to themselves... it keeps the issue from escalating. Congratulations, focus on the positive, count your blessings daily, and let the other stuff go - no sense wasting any energy on the negative. [/QUOTE]
