Some proposals happen by moonlight on the beach. Some happen while eating breakfast. Whether you prefer something extravagant or something a bit more low key, you're going to want to remember this moment for the rest of your lives. That's why the idea of publishing a proposal into a printed Blurb book is so appealing.

Below are a few ideas of how to craft the most creative "Will You Marry Me?" chronicle.

• Write a children's book where the main characters are you and your beloved. Print the book with Blurb, then have it put onto the shelves at your local library. Take her on a reading date and "stumble" across the book. (Just remind her that you're in the library and she'll have to tone down those shrieks of joy.)

• Create a beautiful photo essay of your relationship. Include photos of where you met, special pieces from your first date, scenes from your favorite events. Use the pictures to tell a silent story of your love and then complete this happy ending with a picture of you and a sign asking for her hand.

• Is your beloved a foodie? Make her a Blurb cookbook of love! Ask your family and friends for their favorite recipes and put them together into one book, complete with pictures. Add in your own recipe of love with ingredients that include moments from your courtship. Just be sure that when the relationship is fully baked, you ask about the final course - a lifetime of sweet memories.

Diary of a Blogger w/out internet ...

(2/1/2014 •°• 1:53pm)

Times are tough.
2013 ended with a boom and I'm still cleaning up the debris. Living with friends can be stressful but we're doing pretty good. Everyone has their own struggles and worries and have been dealing with them as best as they can. My main struggle is personal space and finding time for myself. I've always been a quite type of girl and enjoy my privacy. When you have 4 adults & 3 kids living in one home, it can get hectic. There have been many days where frustration has gotten the best of me and I've ended up getting a little ill at moments. Stealing a few minutes, sitting alone in the car while Alan and the girls are inside, is the only way I'm surviving my personal space issues. It's not perfect and would be better with internet, but it's better than nothing. Now if I could only find a way to enjoy some better "together time" then we'd be in business.

Alan works all the time and if it's not the kids who "hover" it's the roommates. A night, it's sleeping or silence. Something's gotta give...

#Hashtag Happenings

Today's popular hastag is

#YouShouldntDateHerIf

I've seen this hashtag alot the past week and I even added my own take on it

• #YouShouldntDateHerIf you're simply going to use and mistreat her. She should be loved, not to be used and abused. (@ImThatGentleman)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf you can't be good to her. Step down. There are a thousand other guys who would treat her better. (@alabamACapital)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf She is not over her ex, because she will end up cheating on your or breaking your heart. (@OfficialMaj)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf you're simply attracted to her. Physical attraction doesn't keep people together, a true connection does. (@Gentlemenhood)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf she's never read Harry Potter. (@_Snape_)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf your heart is else where! Go after who you wanna be with! (@LilCutty)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf you're still flirting with other girls (@DepressedDarth)
• #YouShouldntDateHerIf your just leading her on... (@AutoFaerie)

Question of the day - April 11

- Question of the day -

If you don't support the decisions and life choices of your spouse/other half, Can you have a Strong and Healthy Relationship that lasts?

I personally think that you cannot. Both parties have to fully support each other or the relationship will be out of balance. Someone will get hurt and the happiness will not flow through your relationship and/or house

What's your opinion on this subject?

I would love to hear everyone's feedback.
