The last thing hubs said to me as we left on our hike today was “Grab your spikes.” It hadn’t rained for a couple days so I thought “Nah, I’ll be fine.” I proceeded to fall half a dozen times on the slippery, steep ascent and descent. Did hubby scold me? Say “I told you so?” Get angry with me or make me feel worse than I already did? Nope, he picked my ass up half way down the descent and carried me out. He reserved the scolding and “Never again” lecture until after I showered and got cleaned and bandaged up 🤗

My biggest piece of marital advice after having good communication with one another is to be your significant other’s soft place to land. I can’t emphasize enough what this does for their love and respect for you.
