The Family Career Woman

Valentines Day is Sunday and everyone is going crazy! My timeline is filling up with single people who are feeling lonely as well as married couples who are not so lonely. The Holiday is actually called St. Valentines day. According to my research on one account a king wanted to make war and was sending young men off to war unwillingly, and the only thing that would prevent them was if they were married. This King also tried to ban marriage for young adults as a means to send the young men to fight in the war against their will but St. Valentine would marry these young couples in secret so they could live their lives normally and not have to go to war if they were truly in love. The thing that bugs me the most is that everyone is in a frenzy about having to be alone, or being together and no one is content with a love that is Holy.

Not some board you drew up in your imagination and grieve over at the end of the year in disappointment. This tool is POWERFUL because ...

My family see's a family counselor every so often and we discuss certain things. One of those things is what support may look like to each of us. I didn't realize how different everyone's view is of support was until I started asking my husband and looking at what it means for me. 1. Affirm Recently a client told me they wanted something orange, and she gave me a description of what she wanted. I took down the order and made it my business to go to the store to get some beads. Well...I went to Walmart, and I wasn't really satisfied with what they had but I bought them because it was the only thing I found that was orange. Anyway, I go home, and for about a day and a half I just had the beads sitting in the bag on the kitchen table. Finally, I showed my husband what this was and asked him for his opinion. "I don't know," he shrugged, "You know how to make it work, so do it!" When he went to work that night I got to work on them immediate...
