We Danced Like No One Was Watching and Took a Leap of Faith: This Marriage has Provided us Both With the Confidence to Believe in Ourselves and Each Other

January 13, 2020 by Melissa Chapman 1 Comment

We Danced Like No One Was Watching I met my husband when I was 22 years old. Looking back now as a 47-year-old-married-22-years-wife-and-a-mother-to-two-kids-woman it is hard to remember who that girl was, and what she was thinking dating a man who was 15 years her senior. Of course at the time, while I had been in relationships prior to meeting this man who would become my husband, I never … [Read more...]

On why my husband HATES the Bachelor

My husband ABHORS any type of reality show and being the COMPLETE POLAR opposites that we are, of course I am GAGA for them. I pour over their every detail, I get emotionally invested in their unreality and I speculate about their off camera lives. It's true I live for these shows.

After 20 years of marriage my husband wants me to take his last name

When my husband and I got married 20 years ago-- EEK I cannot believe I am that old married lady married 20 years- but I digress...here I was a 25-year-old writer who was truly on the  cusp of a career, and well I felt like my byline was something that was all mine. My name was uniquely me--and it honestly had nothing to do with this man I was about to marry. And after 20 years of marriage my … [Read more...]

Does your spouse fish through the laundry for clothes to wear? yeah mine too but who cares I have an iLife V8s ROBOT VACUUM

Does your spouse fish through the laundry for clothes to wear? yeah mine too but who cares I have an iLife V8s ROBOT VACUUM is a sponsored post Ask my husband why he gets so angry with me over my "laundry practices" and he'll say, "Because my wife has a cleaning problem."

Trying to appreciate the little things my husband does

February 22, 2018 by Melissa Chapman 7 Comments

I know I take it for granted too. Yet watching my husband get ready for a big date night out, how he shaves his face, preens in front of the mirror examining every last wrinkle and new growth (yes as we age all of a sudden some of us begin to grow these weird skin tags in the oddest of places- but that's another post), in those few seconds I watch him and kind of fall in love with him all over … [Read more...]
