It's on...Like Donkey Kong

Part of our preparation for marriage in the church includes counseling with another couple. The couple we are paired up with are very fascinating, the husband is a retired marine and the wife is a nurse. They lived most of their "younger" married life working opposite shifts, so when he retired and was home more they realized how distant their marriage had become. They started going to retreats and learning about marriage counseling. Today they counsel several couples preparing to enter marriage in the Catholic Church. Anyways one of the activities they have us do is start and resolve a conflict. How hard could that be? Well, the truth is, we haven't had a single thing to "fight" about this week and we need to have our assignment complete by tomorrow night. So, I am going to do what I have to do to get it done! Ha! Wish me luck!
My throat is killing me today, I hope this isn't a sign that I am getting sick. I can't afford to be anything but 100% for the next 2 months. Work is going to be hectic. We are in the final months of our 3 year project, it feels awesome to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel, at the same time change is always difficult!
