God is soooo funny! I'm a day late blogging cuz I crashed early last night. Ok.......so day 12 talked about how we always want to win just for the sake of winning when we have disagreements and how that isn't good for our marriage. I have to agree with that. And believe me, Jim and I are both very passionate people and we have pretty strong stubborn streaks.......so we can have some doozies sometimes. But I know that sometimes I'm stuck on something just because I have to win and prove him wrong.....even though I know neither of us will really change our views and its something pointless and silly. So I was supposed to let go of some disagreement we've had and let him have his way. I thought for 40 hours about what recent disagreement we'd had that I could let him win. I couldn't for the life of me think of anything. We haven't really had any ongoing disagreements. Well, then I called Jim last night for our usual "us" time (he's a truck driver) and low and behold he brought up something we haven't agreed on........he wanted to get faster internet. I have never thought it was worth the money, I think our internet is fast enough. Well as I started to state my case and stand my ground...........oh man.........here it is........time to let him win. So I lovingly told him I would support whatever he wanted to do. So today, (deep breath) we got faster internet. Some of these dares are a bit harder than others.... sigh, but I still think its worth it.
