Weekend Homework

by

confetti.jpgHello everyone and welcome back to Long Relationships.

Once again we’re back to Friday and that means it’s time for weekend homework.

Last week I didn’t give you an assignment because I felt if you didn’t know how to take this time of year to your advantage in being with the ones you love, then my weekend homework really couldn’t do all that much more to help you.

As we look to 2008 starting next week, we know even more celebrations with (or without) loved ones are on the way.

I was tempted once again to leave it up to you do to as you please and not give a weekend assignment, but then I changed my mind. Feel free to party on and not read the rest of this post if you’re looking to do absolutely nothing in the lovely days leading up to the new year.

Personally, as I near the new year, I have a lot of plans and resolutions I’m going to start on. I also have a lot of vague dreams of better times to come, as many people do when looking at the coming of a new year.

This weekend, I would like you to sit down with a notepad and pen (or with your notepad) and sketch out how you would like the next year to go, especially in the area of your relationship.

Would you like to finally take that vacation? Is 2008 the year you get married? Would you like to strengthen your relationship by taking classes of some sort?

Make a list and also make notes of how to accomplish your goals. Having a set path and something to focus on can help you get through low times in both your personal life and relationship.

Have an awesome weekend.
