Radio clip one spouse start to save the marriage
At the end of this, they talk about jokes at the spouse's expense. Can you pull up that segment and post it on this thread: http://forum.marriagebuilders.com/ubbt/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2617647#Post2617647 ?
Pretty please? smile

here is a great database: http://www.freelancewriting.com/freelance-writing-jobs.php

These guys are great: http://www.demandstudios.com/

Here is a steady flow if one is near enough for you, pretty much aggregate work: http://www.patch.com/jobs

And if you have magazines that you read that you would like to write for, just google submission guidelines + name of magazine.


Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

First let me assure you that the Harleys are so easy to talk to and make you feel so relaxed. If you really don't want to talk on the show you can write them and they will still read your question and answer it. You're such a good writer that you can do this at the very least.

Email your questions to Joyce Harley at mbradio@marriagebuilders.com.

Writer, forgive me if I've missed this: is your husband on board with Marriage Builders concepts and willing to follow the MB program?

No, not really. He knows about MB and is familiar with most of the concepts.

His areas of difficulty seem to be 1) Not believing that romantic love should be tied to the meeting of EN's, 2) Not thinking that 15+ hours of UA time are possible at this point, 3) RH.

IMO, Number 3 is the problem...number 1 and 2 are just rationalizations and justifications for not doing #3

FWIW, we paid with insurance about $200 per sleep study and the bill for the machine should be about $110. Our insurance was billed about $10,000 for everythign so far.

Since then I've spent a small fortune in masks and nose pads to make it more comfortable for **edit**.
