Hello All,

As you can see I am not an everyday blogger and that is because I wanted to provide good nuggets of information as I find it.

I have located some good places for receptions but everyone is feeling the pinch with the economy in the state that it is in and the consumer is looking for a deal while the venue/vendor does not want to sell themselves short. I will provide my followers with some good locations at a later time.

My post today is around loving the one that you are with whether they are your boy/girlfriend or wife/husband. February is the month for love because of Valentine's Day and as I always say, I love, love! These tips are helpful in keeping the relationship fresh and lively.

8 Tips that I found from a little Delaware newspaper called Your Better Years for the mature communities (I read all things that look interesting and you never know what you will find):

1. Take time to touch. remember how good it feels to just hold hands or put an arm around a shoulder. Everyone wants to be touched by their significant other as a sign of affection and appreciation.

2. Be complimentary. It takes a little extra effort to simply offer a compliment such as "Your hair looks nice today" or "Thanks for helping me carry the groceries." Tell your partner all the things you love and appreciate.

3. Do something unexpected. Call for no reason to say, " I love you."

4. Rent a romantic movie and sit close when you watch it.

5. Dine rather that just having dinner. Dress up and cook something special and have dinner "out" in your own home.

6. Remember how you fell in love. Reread old love letters or look at your wedding album and/or video.

7. Dance for romance. For no reason, turn the music on and dance around the room. It's even better if you can dance in the backyard under the stars.

8. Schedule date night once a week. It doesn't have to be fancy, but it does have to be special.

I take advantage of #8 whenever I get a chance with my husband and it has worked wonders for our relationship because he and I would look at each other at the end of the year and say we did not go dancing or do anything special all year. We would be disappointed at each other for not making the initiative to plan a special night or two or three so that we have something to put in our memory box. But after our second child we made it a point to take advantage of every moment that we have with each other because it helps us appreciate each other more, learn more about each other, and just love on each other.

Enjoy your weekend!
