Okay, I had one last thing to say and then I really am going to go unpack some of those boxes!

Before P. and I were engaged we sat down and wrote a marriage contract. This isn’t anything like a prenuptial agreement. I wrote down what I wanted when married, and he wrote down what he wanted. It was actually fun to compare notes and negotiate. Sometimes we would get into a fight over stupid things. The biggest fight we had was his computer room. He has a bedroom full of old computer parts with this awful wood bench that he nailed together. He also has a room for his office. I wanted him to clean out the computer room so that I could have it as my writing room. He finally admitted it had been several months since he actually worked on anything in that room. I on the other hand had to throw out any of my books that would not fit on the bookshelves he installed in the room.

We ended up writing a ten page document in Word with everything we could think of!
