I'd Take Okay Any Day

Mel and I are doing okay. Yeah, I guess one could say that we are maintaining. We definitely have not been fighting as much as we had over the Christmas holidays, but we still have miles of road to build.

I don't know exactly what happened to us over the holidays. It seemed like we fought everyday. It was really sad too because we missed out on seeing family on Christmas Eve and having my parents over on New Year's Eve because we just were not getting along. We uncovered a lot of underlying issues during our therapy sessions with Dr. Goldman, but see, that's why I get frustrated with those sessions. So much time is spent on digging up shit that there never is any time left for putting dirt back in the ground.

But anyway, Mel and I are both working as hard as we can (I think) to be more loving towards one another. Mel has definitely become more practical rather than romantic since we've been married, but that's ok. I feel like I've changed a lot, too. I don't think there's anything wrong with that because priorities in life change. As long as we both can always say with absolute conviction that we're doing our very best in this relationship, then I'm good with that.
